Peanut Butter Banana Popsicles

June 13, 2015 Melissa King 5 Comments

I am always looking for ways to use up ripe bananas. My daughter, Meadow, and I made these Peanut Butter Banana Popsicles together. She loves helping me, and this recipe was a very easy one for her to help with. You can see her in the picture below. If you like homemade popsicles, you may also like my blueberries and cream popsicles or my strawberry popsicles.

These popsicles can easily be made nut free by using sunflower butter instead of peanut butter. I added some chocolate chips to mine, but that is a totally optional ingredient. You can just do the peanut butter and banana if you prefer. If you love my 5 minute banana ice cream, you will love these!

Everyone loves ice cream right? Well I made you some healthy cookie dough ice cream! The best part? This healthy ice cream needs no ice cream maker.

You have got to try this one. Who doesn’t like big chunks of cookie dough in their ice cream right?

Apple Pie Ice Cream (Vegan, Paleo)

September 17, 2014April 7, 2018 Melissa King 34 Comments

I know we are getting close to the beginning of fall, but ice cream is always a good idea. 🙂 This Apple Pie Ice Cream is so awesome!

It seriously tastes like an apple pie ala mode. The best thing about this apple pie ice cream? It’s made healthier! I was licking the spoon as it was churning in the ice cream maker.

This might just be my most favorite ice cream recipe ever. I used my crock pot applesauce for this recipe. I highly recommend doing the same.

Slow cooking the apples in all the spices brings out the natural sugars and creates a great flavor profile for this recipe. I think that is what brought this over the top for me.

I am going to have a hard time sharing this one with hubby and the kids. 🙂

Double Chocolate Ice Cream (Vegan, Paleo)

Double Chocolate Ice Cream. Yesterday, I asked my daughter what she wanted to help me make. She requested chocolate ice cream.

She is a huge chocolate fan, so of course we had to make it extra chocolatey ice cream! Homemade ice cream is so much better than store bought. You can control the ingredients.

This ice cream is also packed full of chocolate chips. A must try for any chocolate lover. My husband and older daughter are the true chocolate lovers in our family.

My baby girl and I are vanilla fans. This ice cream recipe is vegan, gluten free and dairy free. I hope you enjoy it. You can make this in about 20 minutes! If you don’t have an ice cream maker, you can always pour this into popsicle molds

I have been loving homemade ice cream lately. It’s getting close to the 100’s here in Dallas, so I like to be able to enjoy a frozen treat. This lemon coconut ice cream is my latest ice cream recipe. I just love all things lemon and coconut, so I knew this lemon coconut ice cream would be delicious. And it was!

This very ice cream recipe only contains 4 ingredients! This lemon coconut ice cream is vegan, gluten free, dairy free and paleo. It only takes about 20 minutes to make. If you don’t have an ice cream maker, you can make this recipe into popsicles instead. I like these molds.

Cherry Chocolate Chip Ice Cream

The warm weather is here and I am cranking out new ice cream recipes. This cherry chocolate chip ice cream recipe is my latest one. I just love cherries. So when my husband brought a bunch home the other day, I knew I wanted to make cherry ice cream. Of course I had to make mine cherry chocolate chip ice cream, because chocolate always makes everything better! Am I right? I love having an ice cream maker. It is so worth the money when you think about the price of organic, dairy free and gluten free store bought ice cream. You can make your own ice cream recipes for so much cheaper with just a handful of ingredients.

This cherry chocolate chip ice cream is dairy free, vegan, gluten free and even paleo friendly. It only takes 4 simple ingredients to make it. I love 4 ingredient recipes. I really think you could omit the sweetener all together in this if you happen to have some really sweet cherries. You will need to pit the cherries, which can be a messy job unless you have a cherry pit remover. Love mine!
