Instructions

Prepare the Peanut Butter

Put peanut butter (not peanut butter powder or peanut butter made from powder) into a ziplock bag and cut a small hole in the corner of the bag. Pipe out strips or ribbons of peanut butter onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Freeze overnight.

Make the Ice Cream Mixture

Pour the unsweetened almond milk, protein powder, peanut butter powder, sugar substitute, and gaur gum into a small blender and blend until all ingredients are fully combined. Pour the mixture into a Ninja Creami pint container.
Freeze on a level surface for 24 hours. Your freezer should be between 9 and -7 degrees Fahrenheit. To avoid getting a bump on the top of the frozen mixture, freeze with the lid off of the container.

Process the Ice Cream

After 24 hours, remove the pint container from the freezer.
Place the pint container into the outer bowl of the Ninja Creami and then process on "LITE ICE CREAM."
If the ice cream is dry or crumbly looking, pour in a tablespoon or two of unsweetened almond milk and then re-spin. If the ice cream looks like little balls of ice cream (like dippin dots), respin without adding liquid. You may have to repeat this process a couple of times.
Dig a well down the center of the ice cream and pour in the chopped peanuts and place the frozen peanut butter ribbons down the center of the hole. Process on mix-ins.
Remove the pint from the machine and enjoy!

Notes

Can you mix-in peanut butter to make peanut butter swirls with the Ninja Creami?

Technically, no. If you just add peanut butter during the mix-ins process, the peanut butter will fully mix-in with the ice cream base. BUT!!! If you freeze peanut butter in strips and add the frozen peanut butter strips during the mix-ins process, they stay together pretty well and create small peanut butter swirls throughout the ice cream!

Does PB fit peanut butter powder taste like peanut butter?

It sure does! Not only does it taste like peanut butter, but if you add water to it, the texture is exactly like regular peanut putter! Smooth and creamy!!!
