Published 6/24/2016 • Updated 2/6/2024 Banana nice cream is my ultimate healthy dessert. With simple ingredients and delicious flavor, this healthy ice cream is the perfect way to curb those sugar cravings! Instead of using white sugar, this soft serve relies on the natural sweetness of bananas. It’s like a guilt-free dessert dream come true. But here’s the kicker – we’ve added peanut butter cups and all-natural peanut butter for an extra layer of indulgence and texture. It’s like a peanut butter-chocolate party right in your blender.
What You Need for Peanut Butter Cup Banana Nice Cream
Frozen Ripe Bananas: They bring that natural sweetness and an unreal creaminess without needing an ounce of added sugar. It’s the perfect way to use up those brown bananas on your counter. Check out how we freeze bananas. All-Natural Peanut Butter: This isn’t your run-of-the-mill stuff; it’s the real deal – no added sugars, no funky business. It’s the nutty hero that gives your nice cream a rich, indulgent flavor. Almond butter works well here, too. Unsweetened Almond Milk: Adds a bit of liquid goodness to make everything blend seamlessly without extra sugar. Mini Peanut Butter Cups: We added mini peanut butter cups for even more peanut butter goodness and a hint of chocolate for fun. You can use store-bought (my favorite kind is Justin’s) or homemade peanut butter cups.
High Speed Food Processor: We recommend a high speed food processor for this recipe as there’s not enough liquid for a blender.
A Few Nice Cream Tips
For flavorful banana nice cream, be sure the bananas are ripe (yellow or slightly browned). Trust us, it will make the nice cream sweeter. We used almond milk, but you can use any type of milk that you would like. To up the protein in this nice cream, use vanilla core power protein milk. If you want to add a little more sweetness, adding a dash of maple syrup never hurt anyone.
