Roasted apricot ice cream made with the ninja creami
vote now
Homemade roasted apricot ice cream that’s creamy and full of sunshine? We love the idea! In this recipe, the apricots are first cooked in the air fryer with a little vanilla sugar, olive oil, and rosemary until fragrant and slightly caramelized. Blended with skyr and a drizzle of agave syrup, they turn into a fresh, delicious fruit ice cream. With the Ninja Creami, the texture becomes smooth in no time, while pieces of roasted apricot added at the end bring a soft, melt-in-your-mouth surprise to every spoonful. The perfect dessert for enjoying apricots all summer!
