I have always loved ice cream, but I have never been a fan of the high calorie and fat content of traditional ice cream. A few years ago, I started experimenting with making my own ice cream using almond milk as the base. I found that almond milk ice cream was just as delicious as traditional ice cream, but it was much lower in calories and fat. I have since perfected my recipe, and I am now sharing it with you. This almond milk ice cream is the perfect way to enjoy a sweet treat without guilt.
