The recipe can be made with peanut butter, almond butter, cashew butter, sunbutter, or even coconut butter.
Have fun experimenting with different add-ins, such as shredded coconut, mini chocolate chips, jam or diced strawberries (peanut butter and jelly ice cream!), a pinch of instant coffee, or homemade Chocolate Truffles.
Recently I’ve discovered the new Ben & Jerry’s nondairy Netflix & Chill’d, and it is dangerously good. If you want to make your own healthier version at home, try adding crushed pretzels and crumbled Black Bean Brownies to this peanut butter ice cream base.

Is it obvious that I really love ice cream??
My favorite way to make this ice cream is with crunchy peanut butter and canned coconut milk.

Vegan Peanut Butter Ice Cream
Ingredients
- 2 cups milk of choice
- 4-5 tbsp sweetener of choice
- 1/2 cup peanut butter, or allergy friendly sub
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- optional banana, chocolate chips, chopped peanuts, etc.
Instructions
- Stir everything together. If using an ice cream maker, process according to manufacturer’s directions. Otherwise pour mix into either ice cube trays or 1-2 shallow containers. Freeze. Once frozen, pop the block out of the containers, thaw just enough for your blender or food processor to be able to handle it, and blend until smooth. If you don’t have a high-speed blender like a Vitamix, you can still use a food processor – just thaw a little longer, then scoop out and freeze up to a half hour for firmer ice cream. For authentic presentation, I scooped it out with an ice cream scoop.View Nutrition Facts

I have always been a peanut butter lover, despite my brother having a severe peanut allergy. I didn’t like Reese’s or chocolate and PB in candy bars, but I loved the PB and chocolate sprinkle sandwiches my mom would make me once in a while as a treat, as a kid. (I hated PB&J as a kid, though! Weird.) So yes, I agree – there is no such thing as too much chocolate or too much peanut butter! (Or is there?!)
Not trying to be the dorky health nut… but… I love blueberries the most, when it comes to food! I can easily eat “too many” (by other peoples’ standards it’s ‘too many’, at least) blueberries, heh.
Are we seeing a trend here? More healthy ice cream recipes coming to CCK?! I’ll look forward to more, if that is the case. 🙂 Though, who am I kidding? I always look forward to your recipes, just like everyone else!
Aww you are always so sweet!!
Love this! Love your blog!
My fave food in the world has to be chocolate, especially dark chocolate. Nothing else compares, unless we could consider coffee a food;)
This ice cream looks delicious– except I’ll have to make it when my sister, and roommate, isn’t around because it’s her fave food and she’s slightly allergic to it!
Soynut butter is surprisingly PB like.
Maybe your sissa would like a surprise soynut butter ice cream treat!
My little brother had a peanut sensitivity for a while (it’s gone now, which is just weird) so I’d send him soynut butter. He loved it and he’s not an experimental eater at all.
Sunflower seed butter is also super good!
My favorite food is yogurt, no doubt about it. Kind of weird, huh? Though peanut butter is probably number 2 on that list. I just got some peanut butter frozen yogurt that is to die for!
My favorite food is absolutely maple syrup!! 😀
You can top it on ice cream for example… 😉
yummay!! peanut butter IS my fav food in the world. altho I would argue there is such thing as too much….like eating half a jar in one sitting and having a bad tummyache after too much. Ill never learn my lessons…. 🙁 lol
Hey! I’d love if you could make a healthy version of the chocolate cake in a mug that I’ve been seeing around? I’ve made it and it’s delicious but it’s absolutely horrible for you with all of the oil and such. And, who doesn’t love a Single-Ladies Chocolate Cake?
I’m working on a molten chocolate cake recipe. I wonder if it can be done in a mug…
Totally trying this with coconut milk for extra creaminess…err DREAMY-ness 😉
yum, yum, yum!!
I went shopping today and bought raisins for yesterday´s recipe. Can´t wait to try it!
I couldn´t possible choose a favourite food, though I instantly think of oatmeal 😀
Okay, this looks amazing. And your pictures are beautiful!
I absolutely LOVE that blue plate. I have the same problem with buying the same color dishware but in white! You can’t get more plain than that. At least you always choose a happy color!
