What is healthy about homemade ice cream??? Well if you make your own, you know what is in it, and you can put all healthy ingredients in.
Dairy
Fresh Fruit
Raw Sugar, or Honey, etc
No additives
Well this Memorial Day we had Banana Black Walnut ice cream. It was delightful!
The children cracked the black walnuts, our neighbor gave them to us, she said, she had collected them this fall and had not done anything with them and was going to throw them out for the squirrels, but she said she couldn't do that, so when we stopped by to visit she gave them all to us about 5 gallons worth. ;D
We cracked and ate all ours before winter, We love black walnuts.
Did you know the '' Black Walnut '' is medicinal? They are anti fungal and are used in dewomer too. One friend takes black walnut for his allergies and it works.
This is a recipe I made up, that I use as a base recipe, I just add ingredients and change it around to suit our taste.
Banana Black Walnut Ice Cream
1 1/2 cups raw sugar
2 cans evaporated milk
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 Tb vanilla
1 tsp salt
(if I'm adding fruit I add 1 Tb lemon juice) * we did not add it to his Banana Black Walnut combination.*
Milk to the fill line
We have a 4 Quart Ice Cream Maker.
For Banana Black Walnutwe added....
1 Tb Butter Flavoring
1 1/2 cups Black Walnuts (chopped very fine)
3 ripe, but not too speckled Bananas, smashed real good
We add all the ingredients, but we leave out the Black Walnuts until it starts to thicken, then we pour them in and let the machine mix them in and finish freezing.
This Ice Cream was a hit!
