Like lots of other brides, I registered for and received an ice cream maker as a gift for our wedding.\u00c2\u00a0 That ice cream maker has only been used a few times over the last four and a half years.\u00c2\u00a0 My first few attempts were unsuccessful.\u00c2\u00a0 The Picky Apple is, well, picky<\/em> about the exact flavors and more importantly the texture<\/em> of his ice cream, and none of our homemade attempts were living up to his standards.\u00c2\u00a0 And so the ice cream maker sat and sat and sat<\/em>…..until recently.<\/p>\n

I was inspired to try again recently when The Littlest Apple developed an addiction to ice cream in the last month or so.\u00c2\u00a0 Most mommies might cringe at this, but we have wholeheartedly embraced this love of ice cream.\u00c2\u00a0 He has ice cream daily<\/em>, and has come to expect it.\u00c2\u00a0 You see, The Littlest Apple is still very small<\/em> for his age (like, off the charts low weight) due to several factors I won’t delve into here….but his extreme pickiness isn’t helping. Per doctor and dietician orders, we are to feed him all the heavy cream, oil, butter, sugar in the land.\u00c2\u00a0 Ice cream?\u00c2\u00a0 Bring it on!\u00c2\u00a0 Have seconds, even!<\/em> When I look for ice cream at the store, I look for the highest <\/em>fat and calorie content I can find.\u00c2\u00a0 This is usually the Ben & Jerry’s or the Haagan Daaz (you know, the GOOD ones).\u00c2\u00a0 But I’m never able to buy those because The Littlest Apple has an egg allergy (yet another contributing factor…the food allergies), and all the Ben and Jerry’s and Haagan Daaz flavors have egg.\u00c2\u00a0 So, I came up with a few recipes for homemade ice cream with no egg and busted out my ice cream maker.<\/p>\n

This, my first attempt satisfied The Picky Apple’s desire for a banana ice cream sans <\/em>nuts and other chunks, and gave me another option for The Littlest Apple.\u00c2\u00a0 It was easy to mix and tasted super banana-y.\u00c2\u00a0 We’ll definitely be making this one again!<\/p>\n
