The second I signed up to participate in this series, my brain went into over drive with all the amazing possibilities. I have trimmed them down to three, to hopefully satiate everyone's appetite - even a non-dairy option!
One of the reasons I was excited to participate in this series is to showcase more uses for essential oils than just a fix to a cold. Quality essential oils (I can only recommend Young Living) can actually be used to flavor foods!
The first, Dreamsicle Ice Cream! Do you remember rummaging through your grandmother's freezer when you were a kid to find the Dreamsicles? I do! My mom didn't usually buy them, so when we stayed at Grandma and Grandpa's, they were a treat. This recipe could not be more simple. And when I brought it over to a family gathering for a taste test, it was totally a hit!
Homemade Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream
Ingredients
- 1 can organic pureed pumpkin
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 cups raw milk
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 3 drops Young Living cinnamon bark essential oil
- 3 drops Young Living clove essential oil
- 3 drops Young Living nutmeg essential oil
Directions
- Combine all ingredients and mix thoroughly until the sugar is dissolved. Follow the directions for your ice cream maker.
- Serve immediately for a soft serve consistency or freeze overnight for a more firm consistency.
And finally, for our lactose sensitive friends, Coconut Lime Sorbet. This one might be my very favorite. This is a deliciously light, dairy free option. You can modify it to make it sugar free, too - just use honey or agave instead.
