Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 pieces ripe bananas (frozen, sliced) Make sure the bananas are nice and ripe; the riper, the sweeter!
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter (creamy or crunchy) Choose the type of peanut butter you love—creamy for a smooth texture or crunchy for some added bite.
  • 1 tablespoon honey (optional) Feel free to add for extra sweetness!
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract For extra flavor.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Peel and slice ripe bananas, then place them in a freezer-safe container. Freeze the banana slices for at least 2 hours or until solid.
  2. Combine frozen banana slices with peanut butter, honey (if using), and vanilla extract in a food processor or blender.
  3. Blend until achieving a creamy, smooth texture. Stop occasionally to scrape down the sides for even mixing.
  4. Taste the mixture and adjust the flavors as desired with more peanut butter or honey.
  5. Transfer the blend to an airtight container, and freeze for another hour to thicken further.
  6. Scoop out the desired amount and enjoy!

Notes

Store the ice cream in an airtight container in the freezer for about 2-3 weeks. Let it sit out for a few minutes to soften before serving to maintain its creamy texture.
