  • 1/2 cup natural peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1/3 cup chocolate chips (semi-sweet, dark, or milk)

Instructions

  1. Slice the bananas and place them in a single layer on a baking sheet. Freeze for at least 2 hours until solid.

Notes

Store any leftover ice cream in an airtight container and let sit out for a few minutes before scooping. This ice cream can be made in advance and enjoyed later!
