Peanut butter turns ordinary ice cream into something richer and more filling, and each recipe here approaches that pairing a little differently. Some rely on the Ninja Creami for a smooth, scoopable texture, while others use a simple no-churn method that skips the machine altogether. A few even swap in protein powder or sugar-free ingredients for a lighter take.
This lineup ranges from classic combinations like the Ninja Creami Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Ice Cream to playful twists like the Baskin Robbins Reese's Peanut Butter Ice Cream Pie. There are also protein-forward options, a vegan gelato, and a couple of no-churn versions built for anyone without an ice cream maker.

Top Tips
- Freeze the base completely before processing. Make sure the peanut butter mixture is frozen solid for at least 24 hours before processing it in the Ninja Creami. This helps create a smooth and creamy texture.
- Warm natural peanut butter before mixing it in. A few seconds in the microwave loosens it up so it blends evenly instead of leaving stiff clumps throughout the base.
- Use full-fat dairy or a full-fat plant-based alternative for no-churn versions. Lower-fat substitutes tend to freeze harder and scoop less smoothly.
- Let pints rest at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping. Peanut butter ice cream often freezes firmer than standard ice cream, so a short rest makes serving easier.
- Fold in mix-ins like peanut butter cups or crushed cookies at the very end. Adding them too early can cause them to sink or break apart during churning.
