Guilt Free Chocolate Peanut Butter & Banana Ice Cream

This has become a favorite in my household.  My hubby, who might just be the biggest Ice Cream fan ever, requests this vs. regular ice cream.  Since I became Diary Free, I've been searching for ways to enjoy some of my favorite things, Ice Cream is one of them.  So when I heard you could make a soft serve "ice cream" from bananas, I was all about it!

Here's my favorite Guilt Free Recipe!



Ingredients:
1 Cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
2 Scoops Vegan Chocolate Shakeology
2 - 4 Medium (Ripe) Frozen Bananas *peeled and cut into chunks before freezing*
2 Tbsp. All Natural Powdered Peanut Butter *I use PB2*

Preparation:
Take semi ripe bananas; peel, cut and freeze for 2 - 3 hours.  Make sure the bananas are really frozen or else the "ice cream" will be too runny and not get to the soft serve consistence.




Place milk, Shakeology, bananas, and peanut butter in high-powered blender *I use a Ninja and it works great*






Blend/Pulse for 5 seconds to break up the frozen bananas and continue blending for 30 secs or until you start to see a smooth, soft serve consistence form



Place mixture in bowls and serve and garnish with a cherry! *we usually eat it right away, but you can freeze it for 4 hours, making sure to stir every 30 mins.  We just never have any left over to freeze!




Enjoy your guilt free frozen treat!!
