Vanilla Fig Almond Ice Cream

In honor of "fig season", we made a recipe for semi-homemade Vanilla Fig Almond Ice Cream. Summer is the season of the year where all delicious and sweet fruits are ripe and ready for lots and lots of dishes. This dessert is creamy, sweet, and refreshing with subtle notes of brandy. I love figs, almonds, and vanilla ice cream. And, for all those reasons this recipe is my top ice cream pick, and it is SOOO Easy to make especially with some store bought vanilla ice cream. In this recipe we used Fig Almond Spread from one of our favorite producers The Gracious Gourmet. They have a number of great jams and spreads. This ice cream is perfect for a hot summer day, or for a well deserved treat any time of the year. The Fig Almond Spread is Naturally Gluten Free & Vegan.

- 1 pint premium vanilla ice cream, softened
Instructions
