Bananas.Peanut butter. Chocolate. I mean c’mon. If you love bananas, you can’t go wrong with banana ice cream. SO easy. SO delicious. SO nutritious. SO cheap. And pretty fast to make. One of my very first posts was a banana ice cream. I’ve been making this ice cream for years, and although I have upped my skill in the kitchen and purchased an ice cream maker to make more fancy frozen things, I still love the simple and easy dessert that a frozen banana offers. I am sure most of you reading this have tried a version of the banana ice cream. What is your favorite combo?
Ingredients:
- 4 large frozen bananas
- 3 TBS natural peanut butter (I used crunchy)
- 7 TBS chocolate sauce
Steps:
- if you don’t have any, make chocolate sauce
- in a food processor put all the bananas and blend. You will have to turn off the machine every now and then to scrape down the sides. Eventually it will catch and a beautiful creamy mixture will start forming
- At this point, add the peanut butter and 3 TBS of the chocolate sauce
- resume blending
- spoon into bowls and top with 1 TBS of chocolate sauce. This will harden at the contact of the frozen banana and create a nice crunchy chocolate layer. MMMMMM goodness….
This made just enough for my little family of 5. We all could’ve had a little more 😉
Yummmmm!
Yuuummmm is right!!! I never knew that frozen bananas could taste so good!!
This sounds amazing!!! Will definitely try very soon. Do you mind sharing what kind of icecream maker you bought (and like)? I have been looking into icecream makers but only seem to find what seems like cumbersome versions that use rock salt… Thanks ❤️.
I have the Cuisinart and I don’t like it. I still use it and can make some pretty awesome ice cream in it, but I wouldn’t recommend it.
Mmmm… peanut butter banana ice cream with chocolate sauce, it’s like a peanut butter cup! I love making ice cream, especially banana ice cream, and my daughter goes crazy for it! I love that “ice cream” to her is blended frozen fruit. I’d like to keep it that way as long as possible! I love your combination, it makes me want to go whip some up with pb right now and call it breakfast 😀
Dessert for breakfast, its a real thing!!! Especially when its this nutritious!!
