Who would have thought that your child's food allergies could actually save you money? We are finding that our son's dairy allergy has been a blessing in disguise. I now make all our own snacks including travel snacks, camping snacks, and movie snacks. They not only taste great and are easy to make, but are healthy and saves us a ton on the impulse buys at the grocery store.
I have a growing number of great travel snack recipes that are available on my blog for parents to access which include homemade granola, homemade dairy free breakfast bars, cookies, cakes, dairy free parfait, homemade fruit rolls, homemade pop corn, pies, cakes, sweet breads, dairy free and artificial free candy, muffins, cup cakes and more. Today's article I am happy to provide you our family favorite:
Dairy Free Banana & Chocolate Chip Ice Cream
Items you will need: heavy based sauce pan, whisk, measuring cups, measuring spoons
Ingredients:
3/4 Cup Sugar
1/8 tsp Salt
1 3/4 Cups Rice Milk, Almond Milk or other dairy free milk
2 large eggs, beaten
1 1/2 Cups Milk, either rice milk, almond milk (recipe works best if you can use Goat Milk if it can be tolerated)
2 teaspoons Banana extract (or vanilla)
In heavy sauce pan, combine sugar, salt, and milk. Cook over medium heat stirring occasionally until mixture is steaming. Reduce heat to low.
In medium bowl, slightly beat eggs. Slowly whisk half of the hot mixture into the eggs and pour back into the sauce pan. Cook over medium-low heat until slightly thick, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and refrigerate until chilled or overnight.
When ready to freeze, stir in the 1 1/2 Cups Milk (preferably Goat Milk, but any other type of milk will work), and banana (or vanilla) extract into the chilled custard mixture.
Start ice cream maker and pour mixture through hole in lid. Freeze until desired consistency then add two or 3 overripe mashed bananas, 1/2 cup dairy free chocolate chips, and even a broken up dairy free sugar cone to the ice cream maker. Let it mix for an additional 15 minutes.
Ice Cream will be soft, so put into the freezer for 4 hours before serving. Get started on your next batch because this one won't last long it's so yummy!
