When you think of apple pie, what do you think of? Holidays? Time with friends and family? A cool fall day snuggled up by a fire watching TV? Maybe a nice scoop of ice cream on top.
Well, it’s in the middle of summer and we decided that apple pie doesn’t have to be just for the fall. You all loved our No Churn Chocolate Sweetpotato Ice Cream so much, I made another cool summer treat.
You guessed it….Apple Pie Ice Cream.
Oh, and I added peanut butter for extra creaminess. You’re welcome. Plus, who doesn’t love apples and peanut butter?
Peanut Butter Apple Pie Ice Cream Key Ingredients
Reduced fat peanut butter
Reduced fat coconut milk

Sugar, brown sugar, butter and vanilla extract
That’s it! I actually had all the ingredients here at the house besides the coconut milk. We almost have JAZZ apples here since they are perfect for snacking. Actually the only time I really don’t have apples in the house is when we eat them all 😉
Can you make this Peanut Butter Apple Pie Ice Cream nut-free?
Sure can! Feel free to use whatever nut-free butter you would like.
Can you use an ice cream maker?
Of course! I, personally, have never used one, so I’m not sure how that would change things in the instructions, but I do know that if I can make it no churn, you can make it with an ice cream maker.
