Chocolate Banana Ice Cream is a long time family favorite. It is rich and creamy, perfectly chocolaty with only 2 ingredients. We have been enjoying simple "ice cream" recipes for years, but everyone loves a little chocolate now and then and we always come back to this one. I have to tell you we have enjoyed this Simple 2 Ingredient Chocolate Banana "Ice Cream"countless times over the last few years and you are going to love it!!!

I have mentioned how challenging my 5 year old has become at meal time. Munchkin has become picky about everything so, I have been pretty creative with her meals. Over the last few years we have noticed that our normally well behaved child will change her behavior immediately after eating processed sugar and apparently even the natural sugar in a small bowl of fresh fruit could launch her to the moon.

Between Munchkins sensitivity to sugar and us trying to eat healthy... Naturally sweetened treats are king! This "ice cream" is currently Munchkin's favorite treat! She asks for it at every meal. Truth is, its so healthy she could eat it for breakfast. Not that it would happen, but she could eat it for breakfast. LOL

How about you? What is or was your biggest food challenge with your kids?

Chocolate Peanut Butter Ice Cream (3-Ingredients)

Chocolate Peanut Butter Ice Cream is the perfect amount of peanut butter flavor, speckled chocolate pieces in this delicious frozen treat.

A simple recipe that is sure to be a favorite in your house too. The hot summer weather is perfect for a big bowl of my frozen banana ice cream.

I've been putting together a few different variations of this healthy ice cream recipe. Have you tried my Pecan Banana Ice Cream yet? It's one of my favorites.

Or, you might want to try my Chocolate Banana Ice Cream or my Strawberry Banana Ice Cream instead. Why not try all three and treat yourself to an ice cream sundae recipe.

Best ice cream add-ins

One of the best things about this chocolate peanut butter ice cream is that it requires only 3 simple ingredients.

But, I know that it's hard to resist a bowl of chunky peanut butter ice cream loaded with your favorite candies.

So, you can certainly add chunks of chocolate-covered peanut butter, chopped nuts, and chocolate chips if you prefer.

Or, for a more adult version, you can add some instant espresso to the ingredients for a coffee taste. There are lots of different chocolate peanut butter ice cream brands you can buy at the store.

But, this homemade ice cream recipe will soon become your favorite. It's rich and creamy and because it doesn't have added sugar or dairy, it's much lower in fat and calories.

What do I need to make chocolate peanut butter ice cream?

All you need to make this creamy homemade ice cream is a high powered blender or a food processor. You don't need an ice cream maker.

And, you don't need to cook it on the stove. It really doesn't get much easier than that. All you need is:

Blender - You can use any blender, but I absolutely love this one! I use it for ice cream, smoothies, soups, my tomato sauce, and naturally this ice cream.

Is this ice cream allergy-friendly?

Yes, because this chocolate peanut butter ice cream uses only 3 simple ingredients, it's allergy-friendly. It does not contain dairy, eggs, soy, or gluten.

You can substitute other nut butter for people with peanut allergies.

Just be careful what types of extras you add if you're concerned about allergies. One of the best add-ins, if you're concerned about food intolerances, is 70% dark chocolate.

How should I serve chocolate peanut butter ice cream?

I usually just enjoy this ice cream as is in a bowl. But, if you want a few more ideas, you can use my No Fail Caramel Sauce or my Crockpot Caramel Sauce.

Or, why not try adding a scoop of this ice cream to my Wendy's Frosty recipe. Or, try a scoop in between two of my homemade chocolate chip cookies.

Homemade ice cream sandwiches are a delicious summer treat. One of the benefits of making your own homemade ice cream is that you control what you put into it.

If you want it plain, you can have it that way. If you want fruit or candy, those are good too. Add what you think sounds best and enjoy it.

Helpful Tips to make Simple 3 Ingredient Peanut Butter and Chocolate "Ice Cream"

If you do not have a high powered blender, you may use 2 frozen and one fresh banana to encourage easier blending.
There are no preservatives in your ice cream, so it will freeze solid. Simply remove from the freezer 10 minutes before serving to allow it to soften slightly. If it freezes and keeps beautifully!
You can transfer to a freezer-safe container and allow the ice cream to firm up in the freezer for 2 to 3 hours.
If you don't have any semi-sweet chocolate chips, you can substitute 1/3 cup of cocoa powder.

How can I store homemade ice cream?

You will want to store this in the coldest part of your refrigerator. Never store ice cream in the freezer door.

If you find the ice cream is getting soft while you're eating it, just put it back in the freezer for a few more minutes.

Homemade ice cream will stay good in the freezer for about two weeks. But, I think it's best when you eat it as soon as you make it.

Enjoy!

With love from our simple kitchen to yours.

Strawberry Banana Ice Cream (2-Ingredients) + Video

Strawberry Banana Ice Cream with 2 ingredients and only 5 minutes! I scream you scream we all scream for easy ice cream. Let's make it!

It just happens to be dairy-free and you control the sweetness. No matter the weather we are always looking for delicious ice cream.

If you're looking for a few new dairy-free ice cream recipes, you might want to try my 3-ingredient chocolate peanut butter ice cream, this chocolate banana ice cream, and my pecan banana ice cream.

They require only a few simple ingredients and each one is completely dairy-free.

Soft serve strawberry banana ice cream

If you want soft serve ice cream, you can eat it right out of the blender. It will be soft and creamy at that point.

However, if you want ice cream that is more frozen, you can place it back in the freezer after processing the ingredients.

There are no preservatives in your ice cream, so it will freeze solid.

Simply remove from the freezer 10 minutes before serving to allow it to soften slightly. It freezes and keeps beautifully!

You can transfer to a freezer-safe container and allow the ice cream to firm up in the freezer for 2 to 3 hours.

Do you need an ice cream maker?
No, you don't need an ice cream maker to make this frozen banana ice cream. This is a simple recipe that you make with your blender or a food processor.

You simply slice up the frozen fruit and add it to a high power blender or a food processor until it becomes creamy and smooth. Then, you freeze the ice cream until it's solid.

If you do not have a high powered blender you may want to cut your bananas into slices and freeze them.

Strawberry banana ice cream variations
The bananas are key to the creamy ice-cream-like texture of this frozen dessert. So, they will need to be in each recipe.

There are many different types of flavor variations you can try. Here are a few suggestions you can try next time you make this.

Blueberry and banana
Peach and banana
Coconut milk with pineapple and banana
Nutella and banana

You can see how this frozen banana ice cream has a world of possibilities.

Tips for making strawberry banana ice cream
This is a very simple recipe and it has always come out absolutely delicious every time I make it. But, here are a few tips you can follow to ensure your ice cream has the best possible flavor.

Always start with ripe bananas when you make this. If your bananas aren't ripe, the ice cream won't be sweet enough.

If you notice you have bananas that are ripening too fast for you to enjoy them, just peel them and put them in the freezer to use in the future.

That way when you start craving strawberry banana ice cream, you will have bananas that are already frozen.

Frozen banana ice cream is a wonderful way to use up fruit that is too ripe to eat as is.

If your berries are starting to look old, just put them in a freezer bag in the freezer to use in your next ice cream recipe. No one will be able to tell when the ice cream is finished.

What you will need to make this recipe

Mixing Bowl - I like a variety of mixing bowls and prep bowls and this set has them all.
Blender - You can use any blender, but I absolutely love this one! I use it for ice cream, smoothies, soups, my tomato sauce, and naturally this recipe.

Healthy banana ice cream
Unlike traditional ice cream that contains a lot of sugar and heavy cream, this ice cream is a healthy frozen treat. The sugar in this recipe is completely optional.

You can leave it out entirely if you prefer. Or, you can use your favorite sweetener whether that's stevia or honey instead.

It's a much better choice for anyone that is watching their calories or is lactose intolerant. Just keep in mind that bananas are high in sugar on their own.

Prep time: 5 MinCook time: 0 Total time: 5 Min

Ingredients

4 large bananas, frozen
4 cups strawberries, frozen
2 tablespoons sugar, optional

Instructions

Place strawberries in a bowl or measuring cup. If your strawberries are not very sweet, sprinkle with sugar and toss to combine. Place the bowl in the microwave at 30-second intervals until the strawberries soften slightly and the sugar dissolves in the juice (if used).

Your frozen fruit may separate into tiny frozen chunks before it becomes a fabulous creamy consistency, so be patient.
Serve and enjoy! You can also transfer to a freezer-safe container and allow ice cream to firm up in the freezer for 2 to 3 hours.

Frozen Banana Ice Cream with Pecans

Frozen banana ice cream with pecans is the easiest frozen dessert you’ll ever make. Just 2 ingredients and no ice cream maker needed!

How to Make Frozen Banana Ice Cream

This banana nut ice cream requires only frozen bananas and pecans. It has no dairy or sugar.

If you want an easy homemade dessert recipe, you need to try it today. Best, of all, it takes only a few minutes to make.

Now that summer is here, I have been getting all of my homemade ice cream recipes ready.

I hope you've had a chance to enjoy my strawberry ice cream and my peaches and cream ice cream.

The secret to my delicious frozen banana ice cream recipe is simply bananas.

So, why does this kitchen hack work so well? Normally, when you puree frozen fruit, it just turns into little flakes of frozen fruit.

But, bananas are very high in pectin. And, it's this pectin that helps keep the ice cream creamy and soft.

ingredients and no ice cream maker needed Frozen Banana Ice Cream with Pecans

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Why is it called nice cream?

Banana Nice Cream is a delicious and healthy frozen dessert. The treat is dairy free and sugar free because the only ingredient in it is frozen bananas!

Because it mimics real ice cream but is a healthier dessert, it is called Nice Cream.

How long do you have to freeze bananas for nice cream?

To make this frozen dessert recipe, you will need to freeze the bananas for three to four hours.

Don't freeze them on the door because they won't freeze evenly. Instead, place the container toward the back of the freezer.

Can you puree the bananas then freeze?

You will need to start with six frozen bananas. It's important that you freeze them first and then puree.

If you try to puree them first, the consistency will be off and it won't come out properly.

Can nice cream be made without a blender?

Banana Nice Cream can be made in a blender or food processor. I prefer the blender for ease of clean up.

I have also seen it made with a potato masher, but that is a whole lot of work. I would prefer to eat the frozen banana dipped in chocolate, rather than hand mashing frozen bananas.

Is it OK to freeze bananas in their skin?

You can freeze them in their skin but it will make removing the skin much more difficult when you make this recipe.

Instead, remove the peels and place the bananas in a freezer bag to freeze.

That way, when you're ready to make this recipe all you need to do is to take the bag out of the freezer.

Equipment needed to make this recipe

Blender or food processor
Air-tight freezer container
Spatula

Can I make a larger batch?

Yes, you can double this banana ice cream recipe and make a larger batch. Just make sure that your blender or food processor is large enough to handle all of the ingredients.

Can I refreeze frozen banana ice cream?

Yes. If you take it out to serve it and it starts to get soft, just put it back in the freezer again. It won't affect the flavor or consistency.

Just keep it in the freezer until it returns to the correct consistency.

How long does frozen banana ice cream stay good for?

This recipe will stay good in the freezer in an airtight container for up to a week.

It will still be good after that, but the consistency might be off. Thankfully, it's easy enough to make that you can create a new batch in just a few minutes.

What can I add to this ice cream?

The joy of this recipe is that it needs only two simple ingredients to make it. But, if you want to add more to it, you can certainly do that as well.

Here are a few ideas you might want to try: chocolate chips, chopped strawberries, a dash of cinnamon, or even a spoonful of Nutella or peanut butter.
