This was delicious! It was super creamy, and that little bit of peanut butter goes a long way. I had to add a little more milk than the recipe called for, but I attribute that to everyone's blender is a little different. I will definitely be making this recipe again. (And again, and again:).) Thanks for sharing! Read More

I used plain yogurt instead of milk with a squeeze of lemon or kalamansi, 1 teaspoon of pure honey and took out the chocolate. Tastes like tart banana frozen yogurt. Read More

Surprisingly creamy! I added quite a bit more milk than the 2 tablespoons. This did really well in my Ninja! Definitely a keeper. Read More

Wow, what a surprise. Delicious, creamy and so easy! I made it with my old fashioned Oster blender which required a touch more milk to get it going. I imagine a better blender like a Vitamix would make an easy job of it. Read More

Absolutely delicious! I followed the recipe exactly. It was creamy with a bit of texture from the peanuts and dark chocolate. I will definitely be making this again. Thanks for such a yummy and much healthier ice cream option. Read More

Disclaimer: this is my first review I’ve ever left in my 50 years of living and I must say this is THE BEST EVER! Perfect consistency, I still can’t believe this wasn’t actual ice cream. I ate both servings and didn’t even consider stopping. (I might have slipped in a few extra chocolate chips though) I will have frozen bananas on hand for the rest of my life. Thank you for sharing this recipe! I’m trying to get healthier and this is a new staple. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. Read More
