Ingredients:
- 6 oranges
- 2 passion fruit
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 pint vanilla ice cream
- 1-3 tablespoons orange liqueur (optional)
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Oranges:
- Cut a thick slice from the top of each orange and set them aside as ‘lids’.
- Scoop out the orange flesh and juice into a shallow saucepan, reserving the shells.
-
Create the Flavor Base:
- Add the passion fruit pulp and honey to the saucepan with the orange flesh and juice.
- Simmer the mixture until it is reduced to about one-third of the original volume.
- Strain the mixture into a measuring cup, ensuring it measures 1/2 cup.
- Chill the strained mixture.
-
Prepare the Orange Shells:
- Pierce the center of each orange ‘lid’ with a skewer. These will hold citrus leaves as garnish later.
-
Mix the Ice Cream:
- Place the vanilla ice cream in a large bowl.
- Add the 1/2 cup of reduced orange juice mixture and orange liqueur (if using).
- Beat the mixture quickly until well combined.
-
Fill the Orange Shells:
- Spoon the ice cream mixture into the prepared orange shells.
- Replace the ‘lids’ on top of each filled orange.
-
Freeze the Ice Cream Oranges:
- Enclose each filled orange in plastic wrap to secure them.
- Freeze the oranges upright for at least 8 hours or up to 2 weeks.
-
Serve:
- Before serving, remove the oranges from the freezer 5-10 minutes in advance to allow the ice cream to soften slightly.
- As a final touch, garnish each ‘lid’ with a sprig of citrus leaves, such as orange or lemon leaves. Poke the stems through the skewered holes for a decorative flourish.
Notes:
- If using very large oranges, consider adding an extra scoop of vanilla ice cream to the mixture for optimal filling.
- For the best results, use freshly squeezed orange juice instead of commercial orange juice concentrate to achieve the perfect balance of flavors.
- Feel free to customize this recipe by adding your favorite toppings or garnishes for a personalized touch.
- Enjoy the Passionate Orange Ice-Cream as a delightful ending to any meal or as a refreshing snack on a hot day.
