I distinctly remember when I first discovered you could take a frozen banana, give it a whirl in the food processor, and you’d end up with a creamy, sweet treat reminiscent of ice cream. It was way back in 2010 when I first made banana nice cream and it was a life-changing moment.

Since then, I have tried and enjoyed different combinations of nice cream with bananas, different fruits, and, of course, chocolate. This Chocolate Peanut Butter Nice Cream is one of my very favorite creations.

I’m not delusional. I know this Chocolate Peanut Butter Nice Cream isn’t exactly like the real deal.

But is is a great alternative when you don’t want to eat the real deal? Absolutely. It’s sweet, creamy, and has the winning combination of chocolate and peanut butter.

I’m not against “real” ice cream and think this Cake Batter Ice Cream looks delicious. When I’m ready to indulge, I’ll give it a try!

For now, I’m sticking with this healthy treat made with simple ingredients I almost always have on hand!

Recipe Ingredients–What You Need

  • 4 frozen bananas
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/3 cup natural peanut butter
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/8 teaspoon sea salt

There’s zero added sugar, so this is a treat that totally works if you’re doing a No Sugar Challenge. Because what is summer without ice cream?!

Here’s how you make this healthy frozen treat!

  3. This takes a minute. You might look at it as it’s processing and think, “This Happy Healthy Mama chick is crazy. This isn’t turning into anything like ice cream!” But be patient.

  5. The longer it processes, the more like soft serve ice cream it becomes. I like to stop it before it gets too soft. It’s scoopable.a scoop of chocolate peanut butter nice cream

    I wonder, do you think I could add some coconut yogurt to this recipe?

      I haven’t tried it, so it’s difficult for me to say if that would work well or not. Please let us know if you give it a go!
