Just a couple recipes for you today, but there good ones!
Last night I made a new “ice cream,” and oh my, this is a huge improvement. Heating the Almond Milk and blending in Xanthan Gum completely changes the texture to make it much more creamy and thick. This is a must try!
Combine 1 c UVAB, Sugar & Cacao in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk to get the sugar & cacao to dissolve. Bring mixture to a slow boil. Remove from heat and let sit for a minute. Mix in the rest of the UVAB and Vanilla Extract. Pour into a blender, add Xanthan Gum and blend for a minute. Pour into Ice Cream Maker and let it do it’s thing for 30 minutes or so. Add chopped nuts at the very end. Enjoy half and freeze the rest (makes 2 servings).. or enjoy half and go back 20 minutes later to finish it off :p
Nutrition Facts:
For another tasty addition top with Maple PB2 Syrup.
