Early fall weather usually can't make up its mind: One day it's too hot to handle, the next there's a chill in the air that necessitates a fall jacket. We LOVE summer-ready recipes with fall flavors, and this Apple Nice-Cream recipe is no exception. The perfect blend of fall flavors combined with the cool chill of nice-cream creates the perfect dessert for early fall evenings.
Easy to make at home, this vegan-approved ice cream (hence, "nice-cream") will be your go-to dessert in the coming weeks. Trust us on this.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup crushed freeze-dried apples (Important: DON'T use dried apples!)
- 4 cups sliced frozen banana
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2-4 tablespoons almond or coconut milk
Optional Toppings:
- 1-2 tablespoons salted caramel sauce
- 1 tablespoon crushed walnuts
Instructions:
- To crush freeze-dried apples, add to a high-speed blender and mix until you reach a mostly powder consistency. It's fine to have a few larger chunks. Set aside in a bowl.
- Place frozen bananas in the blender. Blend or pulse until it starts to get creamy.
- Add the crushed freeze-dried apples back in, then add vanilla extract and enough almond/coconut milk to get the nice cream mixture smooth and creamy.
- Serve immediately and add toppings. If desired, add the mixture to a loaf pan and freeze for 30 minutes to get even firmer scoops.
