For me ice cream is a pleasure all year around. You don’t need to wait for summer and all the good seasonal strawberries to come. It’s always good to buy seasonal, but when fruits or vegetables are in season I can recommend buying a heap and freezing it for smoothies or ice cream. Or else use fruits and vegetables you already have in your kitchen and combine it with seasonal tastings and flavors.

My best healthy ice cream was a combo of homemade elderflower juice mixed with smashed fresh seasonal strawberries. Can you believe it was a popular, sweet and healthy summer dessert? Also frozen bananas is a smart thing to have in your freezer, cause you can make ice cream in just a few minutes. Frozen bananas makes ice cream or smoothies very creamy and they are really sweet, so you do not really need any other sweetener.
~ This ice cream is also very delicious with these protein pancake or crispy waffles.
