Ingredients
  

  • 5 medium bananas, peeled and frozen
  • 1/3 cup almond milk
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened finely shredded coconut
  • 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts
  • 3 tablespoons raisins

Instructions
 

  • Combine the bananas, almond milk, shredded coconut, peanut butter, and vanilla extract in a food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy, occasionally scraping down the sides to ensure everything is evenly incorporated.
  • Transfer the mixture to a freezer-safe container. Stir in the chopped walnuts and raisins, distributing them evenly for bursts of texture and flavor in every bite.
  • Cover tightly and freeze for 2-4 hours. You'll want the ice cream to firm up without becoming solid, so check periodically.
  • To serve, let the container sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly. Scoop into bowls and enjoy!
