Jam and Yogurt Popsicles July 2, 2015 08:50

Ingredients
2 tablespoons Healthy Gourmet Kitchen spreadable fruit

1 cup Plain Greek yogurt
1 tsp honey (optional)
Milk of choice

If the greek yogurt you use is thick like Argyle Cheese Farmers, use a teaspoon milk to thin it, if you can pour the yogurt from a spoon no need to thin it.

Sweeten yogurt with honey if desired by mixing it into the honey in a bowl. Spoon a little yogurt into the bottom of the popsicle molds.

Add 1 tsp spreadable fruit then alternate between the yogurt and spreadable fruit.

Use a popsicle stick to swirl the yogurt and spreadable fruit or leave in layers.

Place in freezer and freeze for at least 4 hours.

Warm very briefly (a few seconds) in warm water to help popsicles release from molds.

Enjoy!

We used wild blueberry and strawberry rhubarb for a red, white and blue theme for the fourth of July.

Happy independence day!

Strawberry Rhubarb Ice Cream June 11, 2015 09:58

Two Ingredients and 20 minutes to delicious strawberry rhubarb ice cream with no refined sugars.

Ingredients

Chilled half and half (from grass fed cows - we use Battenkill Valley Creamery)

Chilled Healthy Gourmet Kitchen Strawberry Rhubarb Spreadable Fruit

For each jar of spreadable fruit use one cup of half and half.

Pour half and half into bowl, add Strawberry Rhubarb Spreadable Fruit. Using a whisk stir them until combined (shouldn't take more than a minute). If your jam is not prechilled place the bowl in the refrigerator to chill it for about an hour.

Place Strawberry Rhubarb / half and half mix into ice cream maker bowl and churn according to directions. We use a cuisinart and it takes 20 minutes to churn a 4 cup mix.

It's like soft serve straight from the ice cream maker, if you prefer your ice cream to be hard just freeze for an hour or two.

This is best made in small batches as the ice cream will form ice crystals in the freezer.

Our strawberry rhubarb is made with fresh organic berries and local honey.
