Hi Christi–Oh, I’m so glad you had success with your peach sorbet! I love making ice cream with coconut milk. It ensures the right richness, texture, etc. So, I haven’t experimented with other milks at all. I say go ahead and give your almond milk a try. Because it’s thinner, I’d just use slightly less of it and/or maybe add another ingredient to give the right thickness, texture … say some banana–frozen bananas can add great creaminess to ice cream. If you use a small amount of banana, you won’t even necessarily notice any banana flavor (if you want to avoid that, depending on your ingredients). Experiment. As I always ask, what’s the worse that could happen? You might end up with more of a milkshake consistency than ice cream, but that wouldn’t be so bad, would it? You might want to make something like this toasted marshmallow shake I saw over at Cathy’s Noble Pig blog the other day. Again, that wouldn’t be so bad, would it? LOL Then you could try another variation next time.

BTW, I just created a fan page on Facebook. I’ll pose the question there about making ice cream with almond milk since this is a much older post and folks are unlikely to respond here. Thanks so much for taking the time to comment! Best of luck with all your ice cream experimentation!

Even though it is probably one of our coldest nights of the year I heard the frozen peaches calling from the freezer to make this tonight. It was wonderful. The peach and the coconut go so very well together. Yum.

Is it possible to make ice cream with almond milk? It seems like it would but I have only seen recipes using soy, hemp or coconut.

Chaya–You’re always so kind–thank you! Can you imagine all the great recipes we’d have if all of the gf bloggers (and others … because most recipes would be gf) had ice cream makers? Next summer we should have an ice cream extravaganza!

You have a beautiful blog. It is organized so nicely. I like it. The food is great also. I need an ice cream maker.

Linda–I didn’t have any left in the freezer, so I had to make a new flavor. They both have their pluses … the current one is my new favorite. LOL

Hi, Amy–I saw it!! I’ve actually seen a couple of mine pop up in the sidebar ad now and it’s so exciting! I’ve seen some of yours and Diane’s, too. Love that the word is getting out on simple, yet wonderful tasting gf recipes—all in the gfe tradition!

You’re a sweetheart to stop by and mention that … thanks so very much!
