Chocolate protein powder adds staying power to this tasty protein ice cream. Maple syrup lends a touch of sweetness, while peanut butter powder provides nuttiness for a flavorful sweet treat. Toppings like cacao nibs and crushed peanuts provide a satisfying crunch.

Ingredient

2 cups frozen sliced bananas (3 bananas)
4 tablespoons chocolate protein powder
3 tablespoons peanut butter powder
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
½ cup unsweetened oat milk
3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Cacao nibs and crushed toasted peanuts for garnish (optional)

Direction

Place bananas, protein powder, peanut butter powder and cocoa in a large food processor; process on High, stopping to scrape down sides as needed, until the banana slices are broken up, about 1 minute.
With the processor running, pour oat milk, maple syrup and vanilla through the food chute; process until smooth, about 1 minute.
Spoon the mixture into a freezer-safe 9–by-5-inch loaf pan lined with parchment paper; freeze for 1 hour. Sprinkle with cacao nibs and peanuts before serving, if desired.
