Apple Pie Ice Cream
Capture the classic American comfort food in this mouth-watering ice cream. An optional banana gives the recipe extra sweetness.

Ingredients
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) apple juice
- 1/4 cup (60 g) almond yogurt
- 2 medium (360 g) apples, halved, seeded
- ½ medium (60 g) frozen banana
- 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 Tablespoons (40 g) date syrup , or honey, to taste
- 3 cups (390 g) ice cubes
Directions
- Place all ingredients into the Vitamix container in the order listed and secure the lid.
- Start the blender on its lowest speed, then quickly increase to its highest speed, using the tamper to press ingredients toward the blades while processing.
- In about 30-60 seconds, the sound of the motor will change and four mounds should form. Stop the machine. Do not over mix or melting will occur. Serve immediately.
Chef's Notes
- For an even bolder flavor, try roasting your apples until tender before blending them. This will remove some moisture and make for a creamier mixture, so you may need to adjust by using 1/2 cup to 1 cups less ice.
- If mixture has the consistency of a milkshake, firm it up by slowly adding another cup of frozen ice cubes. Process until smooth.
