Raspberry Soft Serve
This dessert is a favourite of ours.
Light.
Refreshing.
Decadent.
Plus it's simple to make, delicious and super nutritious.
The sweet, tart taste of raspberries creamed together with bananas, vanilla and smooth almond butter results in a rich, creamy treat.
At first I was calling it sorbet, but that’s not accurate as I never add water, juice or sugar – none of those ingredients are needed as raspberry soft serve is plenty sweet on its own from the double dose of ripe fruit.

Raspberries are an extremely nutrient-dense food.
They are an excellent source of vitamin C; fiber -- one of the highest sources in nature- 8g in one cup; manganese; flavonoids -- powerful antioxidants; minerals-calcium, magnesium & iron and ellagic acid -- cancer-fighting compound!!. They also contain folic acid and other B vitamins.
This was very appropriate for our Valentines Day treat. I was awakened to a new perspective this Valentines Day from Oh She Glows....
“Valentine’s Day reminds me that without Self-Love I have nothing
…. without Self-Love I can’t give to others in my life.”
Beautifully written and makes complete sense.
