Gluten Free Peaches and Cream Ice Cream

It isn’t overly difficult to find a tasty ice cream that is gluten free in the stores, but if you want a tasty ice cream, you are probably going to need to make it yourself.   If you like peaches, here is a gluten free recipe that was submitted to us and quickly became popular in our household.

Gluten Free Peaches and Cream Ice Cream Recipe

Ice Cream Ingredients:

  • 4 large very ripe peaches, peeled, cut into chunks (about 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 pounds)
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup peach juice (or 3 tbsp juice and 1 tbsp peach schnapps)
  • 2/3 cup white sugar
  • 1 cup whipping cream (35% fat)
  • 1/2 cup sour cream (full fat)
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 1/4 tsp lemon juice

Ice Cream Directions:

  1. Place the peaches, water, juice and schnapps in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cover and cook until the peaches are soft, stirring a few times.
  2. Transfer peaches, along with the liquid, into a non-reactive bowl. Stir in the sugar and let the peach mixture cool, uncovered, to room temperature.
  3. When the peaches have cooled, add the cream, sour cream, vanilla and lemon juice. Puree with an immersion blender until blended but bits of peaches remain.
  4. Cover and chill the mixture thoroughly in the fridge. (You can put in the freezer towards the end to make it extra cold.)
  5. Churn in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer’s instructions.

Gluten Free Ceasar Salad

Sometimes it seems we spend way to much time focusing on desserts, breakfast items, and other treats.   This is mostly out of our control due to us only being able to go by the gluten free recipes we receive via our recipe submission form.   With that sad, we are glad to feature all types of gluten free recipes and were pleased to see another gluten free salad recipe!

By default, homemade salads are naturally gluten free, but then you have to avoid a few crucial ingredients such as croutons.   Below is a great gluten free salad recipe for ceasar salad which I think everyone will enjoy!

Edit: This recipe has been removed per the author’s request.   You can see the gluten free recipe in its entirety using the link below.
