A creamy and satisfying frozen dessert that blends sweet ripe bananas with rich peanut butter, creating a smooth and naturally flavorful treat without an ice cream maker.
Equipment
- Mixing bowls
- electric mixer or whisk
- Spatula
- freezer-safe container
Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas, mashed until smooth
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream, chilled
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk
- ½ cup peanut butter
Instructions
- In a large bowl, beat the chilled heavy cream until it thickens and holds firm peaks.
- In a separate bowl, combine the mashed bananas, sweetened condensed milk, and peanut butter, stirring until the mixture is smooth and evenly blended.
- Gradually incorporate the whipped cream into the banana mixture, folding gently to maintain a light texture.
- Transfer the mixture into a freezer-safe container and smooth out the top.
- Cover securely and place in the freezer for about 6 hours, or until the ice cream is fully set.
- Allow it to sit briefly at room temperature before scooping, then serve and enjoy.
Notes
- For added texture, mix in chopped peanuts before freezing.
- Using very ripe bananas will enhance sweetness and flavor.
- Keep the container tightly sealed to preserve creaminess and prevent ice buildup.
