Instructions
- In a small, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the fresh strawberries, apple juice, and the ground nutmeg and coriander.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking and to help release the strawberry flavor.
- Once boiling, stir in the strawberry conserves and the sugar until fully dissolved. Allow the mixture to cool, then chill it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
- In a large mixing bowl, pour in the non-fat milk, then add the chilled strawberry mixture along with the almond extract. Stir until well combined.
- Pour the entire mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
- Transfer the ice milk to a suitable container and freeze for at least 2 hours to firm up.
- Yield: 1 quart.
Note: Due to the absence of fat, this ice milk will become quite firm if frozen for longer than 12 hours. To serve, transfer from the freezer to the refrigerator about 1 hour beforehand to soften for easy scooping.
