Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup almond milk
- 1/2 cup natural peanut butter
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 cup chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond milk, peanut butter, cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth.
- Stir in the chia seeds until evenly distributed.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken the mixture.
- After 30 minutes, stir the mixture again to break up any clumps of chia seeds.
- Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
- Transfer the mixture to a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 2 hours to firm up before serving.
Notes
- This dessert can be made up to 3 days in advance and stored in the freezer.
- For a creamier texture, allow the frozen dessert to sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before serving.
- Substitute almond milk with any other non-dairy milk or regular milk if preferred.
