Simple Blueberry Nice Cream Recipe is Vegan & Sugar Free!
I don’t serve a lot of desserts in my house because I am very cognizant of the amount of sugar we eat. My own mother rarely made desserts and I have really followed in her footsteps. We’ll pull out the fruit bowl after dinner, and that’s usually the extent of dessert at my house.
But sometimes, a nice dessert is a real treat. Don’t you agree? I’m excited to share this simple, guilt-free blueberry nice cream recipe with you! It’s a great way to indulge and you don’t have to worry about any sugar, fat, gluten, or any other ingredient you may be trying to avoid.
You will thank me for this simple blueberry nice cream recipe during the beautiful spring days and in the dog days of summer too. You’re welcome! I hope you enjoy. 😀
A little bit about the R.W. Knudsen Family®
The R.W. Knudsen Family® Single Fruit Juice line is made up of single-fruit, unsweetened, and undiluted 100 percent fruit juice. (That sentence is pretty redundant, isn’t it? I wrote it so I can say that. :D) The juices are Non-GMO Project Verified and are sold in 32 oz. glass bottles. In addition to Just Blueberry™, they also sell Just Black Cherry™, Just Cranberry™, Just Pomegranate™, Organic Just Concord Grape™, and Organic Just Tart Cherry™.
We love the Just Blueberry™ – it’s delicious on its own, and also makes a lovely Schorle (thirst quenching German drink comprised of fruit juice and mineral water). Of course, it’s also fabulous in my Nice Cream recipe.
Why blueberries?
I’m glad you asked! Blueberries are rich in antioxidants, fiber, potassium, folate, vitamin C, vitamin B6, and phytonutrients. They’re also free of cholesterol and support heart health helping to lower the total amount of cholesterol in the blood. Drinking blueberry juice is supposed to promote mental sharpness, help keep your skin healthy, and studies have found that blueberry juice can protect against serious neurological disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease. But besides all of that, blueberries are just really delicious, don’t you think?
