Healthy Ice Cream. It’s Dairy Free!!! Pumpkin!!!
Servings: 4
- 4 egg yolks from pastured eggs (I use Tropical Traditions soy free)
- 1/2 – 3/4 cups sweetener
- 27 oz full fat coconut milk*
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon*
- 1 1/2 teaspoons nutmeg
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon cloves
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups pumpkin, fresh or canned
- 1 tablespoon bourbon or vodka (optional to keep it from getting hard)
Whisk the egg yolks, any liquid sweetener, vanilla, all spices and salt in a bowl and set aside.
Place the coconut milk and any granulated sweetener in a saucepan and bring to a simmer, do not let it boil!
Remove from heat and slowly add the milk a ladle full at a time to the egg yolk mixture, whisking as you go. If the milk is too hot it will cook the eggs
Once it is all incorporated, transfer mixture to a blender and add in the pumpkin and bourbon/vodka (if using) and blend until smooth
Pour mixture back into the bowl and place in the freezer for an hour to cool
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and follow the instructions or pour into a bread pan and freeze
*I did all of the spices as heaping measurements because I like the spice. You could certainly just use pumpkin pie spice as well.
* For the freshest coconut milk make homemade coconut milk. (See video at this link.)

Pan-Seared Flat Iron Steak
The trick to a great crust on this flat iron steak is to use a very hot skillet; a large cast-iron or heavy stainless steel skillet works best. Have your hood fan on high—there will be some smoke. If you can’t find flat iron steak in your local market, a top blade chuck or sirloin steak will work just fine.
Total Time: 20 minutes
Cook juicy seasoned steak in the skillet to provide a simple yet flavor-packed crust. The trick to a great crust is to use a very hot skillet; a large cast-iron or heavy stainless steel skillet works best.

Tito Vodka
Tito’s is made from 100% corn and as a distilled spirit, is completely gluten-free. Some producers add a little bit of mash back into the spirit after distillation, which would add gluten content into an otherwise gluten-free distillate (if using wheat as the base), but I don’t do that regardless. It’s an important thing for us, and we actually include “GLUTEN-FREE” in lots of our materials and on the website so people can make informed choices. But, I am a vodka man, not a doctor, so if you have more questions or concerns, you should definitely talk to your doctor about it!
