Ingredients

• 2 cups Heavy cream
• 1 cup Whole milk
• 1 cup Fresh creamy peanut butter (unsalted)
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt substitute (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream and whole milk. Use a whisk to blend them together until well combined.

Step 2

Add the creamy peanut butter to the milk mixture. Whisk the mixture thoroughly until the peanut butter is fully incorporated and smooth.

Step 3

Gradually add the granulated sugar to the peanut butter mixture. Stir constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved.

Step 4

Stir in the pure vanilla extract. If you desire a slight hint of salty flavor without sodium, add the optional salt substitute and mix well.

Step 5

Cover the mixture with plastic wrap and chill it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or until it is cold.

Step 6

Once the mixture is thoroughly chilled, pour it into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, usually about 20-25 minutes, until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.

Step 7

Transfer the ice cream to a lidded container and freeze for an additional 2-4 hours, or until it becomes firm enough to scoop.

Step 8

Serve the low sodium creamy peanut ice cream in bowls or cones, garnished with unsalted peanuts if desired.
