How to Make Peanut Butter Banana Ice Cream with Chocolate! 

Add Bananas & Milk

Add frozen bananas to a food processor and blend until crumbly. Then, add in milk and blend until smooth. You don’t want to add the milk with the bananas first thing because the bananas will immediately freeze the milk.

Add Peanut Butter & Cocoa Powder

Now, add in peanut butter and cocoa powder. Blend all of your ice cream ingredients together until smooth. You’ve just made your chocolate peanut butter banana ice cream mixture! 

Pour

Pour about half of your ice cream mixture into a reusable ice cream container. Drizzle about 2 tablespoons of peanut butter over this mixture.

Then, repeat for the next layer.

Swirl

Now, grab a butter knife and dip it deeply into the ice cream mixture. Swirl the knife around in a clockwise motion to create peanut butter swirls. 

Freeze & Enjoy

Freeze until firm and enjoy the best chocolate peanut butter banana ice cream!

Ingredients 

Chocolate Peanut Butter Ice Cream

Optional Peanut Butter Swirl

Instructions 

  • Add bananas into a food processor (preferred) or blender. Blend until crumbly. Add milk, blending until smooth.
  • Add peanut butter and cacao powder. Blend until smooth, scraping down the sides of the processor as needed.
  • Pour the ice cream mixture into a freezer-friendly container and smooth into an even layer; OR, optionally, do the following to create a Peanut Butter Swirl:
  • Pour half of the mixture into a freezer-friendly, airtight container. Tap the container a few times to create an even layer. Drizzle about 2 tablespoons of peanut butter over this layer of ice cream, creating big pockets of peanut butter. Keep it uneven for more chunky swirls!
  • Pour the remaining half of the ice cream mixture over the peanut butter swirl. Tap again to even out the layer. Drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons of peanut butter over the ice cream. Dip a butter knife straight down into the ice cream. Gently swirl the knife around in a clockwise motion, starting from the edge of the container and swirling towards the center, creating pretty peanut butter swirls. Do not over-stir, as that will fully mix the peanut butter into the ice cream and remove swirls.
  • Freeze for 3-6 hours, or until completely frozen. Allow to thaw for 5-20 minutes before scooping. Enjoy!

    I made this with a few adds, vanilla essence and a bit of sugar free icing sugar, it’s delicious, I mean you can’t tell it’s so healthy! I’m a real sweet tooth, so it’s also good that it’s filling!

    Would rather eat this healthier ice cream than shop bought. Also great that there is no sugar added.
    Thank you.

    Do you have to use non dairy milk?

    1. Demeter | Beaming Baker says:

      Nope, as long as you’re okay with it not being vegan, regular milk should be fine. Hope you enjoy!
