Crazy Chunky Monkey Ice Cream
Calories
Ingredients
- 2-3 ripe bananas just depends on their size
- 1-2 Tbsp creamy peanut butter
- 1 Tbsp honey for added sweetness
- ¼ cup chopped walnuts
- 1-2 Tbsp mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Slice bananas into 1/2 inch slices and place on a small cookie sheet and freeze for 1 hour.
- Put the frozen banana slices into you food processor and puree until creamy. You can scrape down the sides if needed. Don't worry, it takes a minute for it to all get creamy but it will happen.
- Add the peanut butter and honey. Puree until mixed in. Then fold in the nuts and chocolate chip and enjoy or place in a container in the freezer until ready to enjoy! Note: I did add my nuts with the peanut butter and honey. My family doesn't like nuts so I pureed them. This way they get the added nutrition from the nuts but they had no idea it was in there.
