Outstanding

Because there are no egg yolks to thicken the custard, mashed bananas and peanut butter add body to this no-cook ice cream.

Yield: 8 servings (serving size: about 2/3 cup)

Ingredients

  • 3/4  cup  half-and-half
  • 1/2  cup  honey
  • 1/2  cup  sugar
  • 1/3  cup  chunky peanut butter
  • 1  teaspoon  vanilla extract
  • 1/8  teaspoon  salt
  • 2  ripe bananas, mashed
  • 2 1/2  cups  2% reduced-fat milk

Preparation

Combine first 3 ingredients in a large bowl, stirring until sugar dissolves. Stir in peanut butter and next 3 ingredients (through bananas). Stir in milk.

Pour mixture into the freezer can of an ice-cream freezer; freeze according to manufacturer's instructions. Spoon ice cream into a freezer-safe container; cover and freeze 1 hour or until firm.

This no-cook recipe was fantastic! Its super creamy and just the right amount of sweetness...i did make a couple of changes to lower the calories and fat and it was still great. I used 1/2 c. splenda instead of sugar, fat-free half & half instead of regular and i used all natural, chunky peanut butter with no added sugar. I highly recomment..especially on a super hot day =)08/17/07
