Mixed Berry Nice Cream

Nice cream is the perfect, most simple snack ever that you can make effortlessly within a short space of time, which has been essential over these past few weeks whilst I've been revising for my GCSEs (sigh of relief because I only have three left).

This blog will eventually contain personal entries as well as different vegan and gluten-free snacks and meals which I am new to, as I am a from a full-blown meat-eating, bread-toasting type of family. I want to eat healthily, but happily. Simple? Yes.

This recipe has taken inspiration from a nice-cream recipe that the wondrous and vast  internet has gifted me - you can find it here on this link.

Mixed Berry Nice Cream (serves 4)

This super-healthy guilt-free desert or snack is so easy, delicious, and only 62 calories per servings. For relatively lazy people like myself, this is a simple masterpiece.

What you need:

• 170 grams of frozen mixed berries.
• A food processor or blender
• (Optional) 12.5g of mixed nuts.
• (Optional) 1 tablespoon of maple syrup.
• (Optional) 15g of chia seeds.

My chosen toppings are optional as you can top this nice cream with anything such as fruit, or non-vegan treats like chocolate or sweets. The maple syrup could be swapped for honey or chocolate sauce for other non-vegan alternatives.

For this recipe, you could freeze chopped fresh fruit or tinned fruit instead of buying a pre-frozen packet of mixed fruit.

Method

1. Purée the mixed frozen berries in the food processor or blender until smooth. If the mixture divides into solid fruit and puréed fruit, simply stir the mixture and resume puréeing.
2. Once all of the fruit has been puréed, transfer the mixture into a freezer-safe container and freeze until solid, about 4 hours. Keep in mind that the nice cream usually takes 15 minutes to soften at room temperature.
3. When serving the nice cream, it can be topped with the chia seeds, maple syrup and mixed nuts, or your own personal alternatives.
