Ingredients

• 1 cup Vanilla-flavored whey protein powder
• 1 cup Natural peanut butter
• 2 cups Skim milk
• 1 cup Greek yogurt, plain
• 3 tablespoons Honey
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 cup Chopped peanuts (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the vanilla-flavored whey protein powder and skim milk. Whisk together until the mixture is smooth and the protein powder is completely dissolved.

Step 2

Add the natural peanut butter to the bowl. Stir until it is thoroughly incorporated and the mixture is well-blended.

Step 3

Mix in the Greek yogurt, honey, vanilla extract, and salt. Continue stirring until the mixture is smooth and even.

Step 4

Pour the ice cream mixture into an ice cream maker. Follow the manufacturer's instructions to churn the mixture until it reaches the desired consistency, typically about 20-25 minutes.

Step 5

If using, fold in the chopped peanuts for added texture, or simply use them as a topping when serving.

Step 6

Transfer the ice cream to a lidded container and place it in the freezer for at least 2 hours to harden further.

Step 7

Before serving, allow the ice cream to sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes to soften slightly for easier scooping.

Step 8

Scoop into bowls, garnish with extra chopped peanuts if desired, and enjoy your high-protein treat!
