Recipe: No-Churn Grapefruit Gelato
Summary: This creamy, sweet-tart, dense, frozen dessert is enough like gelato that we’re appropriating the name. It takes 4 ingredients and 5 minutes to stir together and a night to freeze. Call me for dessert!
Ingredients
[1]2 cups regular cream (not heavy)- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup fresh Melogold grapefruit juice
- Zest of Melogold grapefruit, finely grated (you might want to use only ¾ of the zest from a whole Melogold, since it is a huge fruit)
- Pinch kosher salt
Instructions
- Whisk all ingredients together and pour it into a lidded container. Freeze for at least 8 hours, or better yet, overnight.
- To serve, small scoops go well with fresh berries or fruit, plain cookies or even a sprinkling of granola on top.
- Serves 8-10.
