Fabulous Feijoas: Really Easy Icecream

Feijoas are just so yummy & one of the very best things about autumn in New Zealand.


I love the fragrance of a basket full of these delicious wonders!




 they need nothing more than to be eaten with a spoon...well lots of them at once  actually : )
however...they also make the most heavenly icecream!!!
Scoop out a whole pile of fruit..discarding any that are a funny colour inside
2 or 3 cups full should do it
pop them in the food processor or use a stick whizz thingy & process them until you have a lovely smoothish pulp

  Add a tin of sweetened condensed milk
and fold in to this mixture 500ml of whipped cream
cover with glad wrap & freeze for 3 or 4 hours
yummmy!!!
If by any chance there's any left over for another day you'll probably need to sit the bowl out of the freezer for a few minutes to let it soften up a a bit.
This is a good basic recipe for using to make all kinds of fruit icecreams. I often use really thick Greek yoghurt & honey instead of the condensed milk & cream..not quite as creamy but still delicious!

  1. This sounds extremely yummy. Too many calories for me though LOL. Love your blog banner. What did you use to make it?

  3. Yes, the cream would make it all the more delish! Love the style of this blog, so vintage feminine.
