creamy Dreamy Beetroot Ice Cream

Here’s a quick and easy Creamy, Dreamy Beetroot Ice Cream. No fuss required to make a crème anglaise which is a fancy way of saying custard in French. No baine Marie required either to ensure a perfectly smooth and velvety finish to the custard. You don’t even need an ice cream machine although I do have one and my Creamy Dreamy Beetroot Ice Cream was ready in an hour.

No sooner had I loaded the photos onto my Social Media pages and I received a direct message from a friend asking for the recipe. “Of course I’ll share it with you “. She needed it in a hurry for a dinner party she was hosting in two days. Her feedback on Sunday was “Oh, Jax! It was incredible 😲 👍 wow … “phenomenal” was the word used by one guest! My husband was confused at first ( not being a lover of beetroot, I had to be careful) but I may have converted him!
Thank you for inspiring me to use my machine again, it’s been so long.
I’m going to try and get adventurous with some other flavours for summer!

Scoop the Creamy Dreamy Beetroot Ice Cream into ice cream cones and dip them in black toasted sesame seeds. This is a brilliant pairing of complimentary flavours. If you want to be a little more dramatic crumble my Chocolatey Chocolate Beetroot Brownies into a crumble, air fry if you like and cool so ice cream doesn’t melt too fast. Drizzle with maple syrup and sprinkle with black sesame seeds.
