Ingredients
3 large ripe bananas
3 tablespoons natural peanut butter
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
A tiny pinch of ground cinnamon
Sea salt to taste
Roasted peanuts for topping
Directions
Peel the bananas and cut them into 1-inch chunks. Arrange the pieces on a parchment-lined plate or baking sheet and freeze until completely solid, at least 1 to 2 hours, or up to overnight.
Transfer the frozen banana chunks to a high-powered blender. Blend on high speed for several minutes, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed. The mixture will go from chunky to creamy as the friction of the blender warms the fruit slightly. You should see a thick, soft-serve-like consistency form after 3 to 5 minutes of blending.
Add the peanut butter, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and a pinch of sea salt to the blended bananas. Pulse the blender on low speed just until all ingredients are evenly combined, about 10 to 15 seconds. Do not over-blend, as the mixture may begin to melt.
Divide the ice cream between two bowls and serve immediately while it still has that frozen, creamy texture. Top each portion with additional roasted peanuts and a dollop of peanut butter, if desired.
