Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth and uniform.
  2. Gradually whisk the sugar into the beaten eggs until fully dissolved.
  3. In a saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until it just begins to simmer (do not boil vigorously).
  4. Slowly pour the hot milk into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to temper the eggs and prevent curdling.
  5. Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens slightly to coat the back of a spoon.
  6. Remove from heat and stir in the whipping cream.
  7. Place the custard base in the refrigerator and chill completely, about 1-2 hours.
  8. While the base chills, place the peanut butter in a small bowl.
  9. Stir about 1 cup of the chilled milk mixture into the peanut butter to create a smooth, liquid paste.
  10. Pour the peanut butter mixture back into the remaining chilled custard base and whisk until fully combined and smooth.
  11. Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to manufacturer's instructions.
  12. While the ice cream churns, peel and mash the ripe bananas in a separate bowl.
  13. Squeeze the juice of one lemon over the mashed bananas and stir to prevent browning.
  14. When the ice cream is nearly frozen and thick, add the banana mixture to the churner.
  15. Continue churning for another 5-10 minutes to incorporate the bananas evenly.
  16. Transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm before serving.
