Fruit Ice Cream

5/12/2015

- 1 quart of fruit (peaches are great, or strawberries, Italian plums, whatever you've got.)
- 1 pint of half and half (By trial and error I have found that half and half has about the right amount of fat.  Pure cream is a bit too rich, and plain milk is a little thin.  I use raw milk from Jersey cows.  It's much higher in butter fat than commercially produced milk.)  You can also use coconut milk.
- 1/4 c. maple syrup (or honey, but honey gets hard when it gets cold and doesn't blend as well)

  •  Fill an ice cube tray with half and half.  Put in the freezer.
  • Slice the fruit and spread on a cookie sheet.  Put in freezer.
24 hours later....
  • Empty the half and half ice cubes and the frozen fruit in your Vitamix (or other super blender).
  • Pour in the maple syrup.  (If you want to use honey instead of maple syrup, you will also need to add an additional splash of half and half.  It needs a bit of liquid to get things blending.)
  • Blend on high, pushing the ingredients down into the blades with the pusher that comes with the blender.
  • It takes only a couple of minutes to blend all of the ingredients.  It's better to have chunks than blend too long and get get a smoothie instead of ice cream.



Enjoy!  I always get major compliments on this and it's so simple.  People say it's the best peach ice cream they've ever had.
