Butter pecan lite soft serve

Buttery and mellow, lighter on sugar.

You need

• 3 tbsp non-fat dry milk powder
• 1/4 tsp xanthan gum
• 1 cup whole milk
• 3/4 cup heavy cream
• 2 tbsp agave nectar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 tsp butter extract
• Chopped candied pecans, for topping

Steps

1. Whisk the milk powder and xanthan gum in a microwave-safe bowl.
2. Add the milk, cream, agave, vanilla and butter extract and whisk.
3. Microwave 45 seconds, then whisk until dissolved.
4. Pour into an empty pint (base closed).
5. Lid on. Freeze flat for 24 hours.
6. Press Soft Serve, then Lite Ice Cream.
7. Snap on the swirl lid, then pull the handle to swirl into a cone or chilled bowl.

Dairy-free: Use coconut or oat milk powder, unsweetened coconut cream and unsweetened oat milk.

Tip: No xanthan gum? Use 1 tbsp vanilla instant pudding mix.

🌿 Make it healthier: Swap the heavy cream for 2% milk plus 2 tbsp dry milk powder; it stays creamy with about half the fat. Halve the honey or sugar; ripe fruit does most of the work.
