The other day our editor told me she had such a craving for ice cream that she nearly chased down an ice cream truck. That got me thinking about all the frozen treats that were so delicious and seemingly magical as a kid. Nowadays, as an adult, I think we can do better. Who needs bright green ice cream in the shape of a Ninja Turtle when you can make something a little more sophisticated? Case in point … this SunButter and Jelly Ice Cream!
This dessert plays off another childhood favorite – the PB&J – but with SunButter instead. SunButter, if you don’t already know, is a sunflower seed spread that makes for an excellent nut-free peanut/nut butter alternative.
This recipe is not only nut free, but it can easily be dairy free, as well. Just use canned full-fat coconut milk in place of the half-and-half.
This is an allergen friendly ice cream that tastes so delicious even the kids will stop chasing the ice cream truck!
