Lemon nice cream with berry superfood sauce

It’s seriously cold and wet here today. Perfect weather for a summery jar of nice cream right? It made sense at the time. I adore hot sauces in a jar of nice cream and this superfood berry sauce was a joy to swirl into the lemony goodness. I wanted to make it yellow, so I used a touch of turmeric (also incredibly good for you), yippee for natural food colourings! This is creamy, sweet, sharp and citrusy all at the same time.

Recipe

For the sauce –

• 1 tbsp Your Superfoods Forever Beautiful Superfood mix (or 1 tbsp chia seeds)
• 1 cup mixed fresh berries (I used raspberries and blueberries)
• 1/4 cup water

Lemon nice cream

• 4 frozen bananas
• 1/8 – 1/4 cup almond mylk
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 tsp maca powder (optional)
• 1/4 tsp ground turmeric
• 1 date, pitted
• 1 lemon, juiced and zested

 

1. Make your berry superfood sauce. Add all sauce ingredients to a small pan over a gentle heat. Stir through and leave to simmer for ten minutes, stirring occasionally. When the berries and chia become jammy take off the heat to cool.
2. Add bananas, a little of the almond mylk, vanilla extract, turmeric, date and lemon juice to a blender. Add more almond mylk as needed until smooth and creamy. Save the lemon zest for sprinkles.
3. Smear berry sauce around and inside your glass. Spoon in lemon nice cream and top with raspberries and lemon sprinkles.
