Ingredients
Ice Cream Base
- 17 oz container full fat cottage cheese
- ¼ cup honey
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 1 peach, chopped with pit removed
Add-ins
- ⅓ cup graham crackers, broken into chunks but not fully blended
Instructions
- Prepare the base: Add the cottage cheese, honey, vanilla extract, and chopped peaches to a food processor or blender. Blend everything together until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Add graham crackers: Stir in the broken graham crackers by mixing gently. Make sure they are broken into small pieces but not fully blended, to maintain some crunch in the ice cream.
- Freeze the mixture: Transfer the blended ice cream base into a bowl or a loaf pan. Cover and freeze it for 3 to 3.5 hours or until the ice cream is fully set.
- Serve: Once set, scoop the ice cream into bowls or cones and enjoy immediately for a refreshing and healthy summer dessert.
Notes
- Use fresh, ripe peaches for the best flavor and sweetness.
- You can substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar if preferred.
- Ensure the graham crackers are coarsely broken up to add texture rather than a smooth crunch.
- This recipe contains no added preservatives or artificial ingredients, making it a wholesome option.
- For a lower fat version, use low-fat cottage cheese but note the creaminess may be slightly reduced.
- If you don’t have a food processor, a high-speed blender will work well.
