Vintage Goodness: Easy Banana Ice Cream Recipe

Flickr/Halai Mama

Who loves banana ice cream? That's the recipe my husband picked from the Searchlight Recipe Book. You won't find this flavor in most grocery stores, but homemade ice cream is so easy. Have no fear if you don't have an ice cream maker. You can still make it using this no ice cream maker necessary method.

This is a great recipe for using your over-ripe bananas too, and don't miss my authentic French Banana Jam Recipe if you are looking to use up even more over-ripe bananas.

Link up below your tried and loved family recipes or other vintage recipes from old cookbooks, newspaper clippings, even old recipe postcards.

This recipe will be linked to Tuesday's Tasty Tidbits, Made it on Monday, Blog Hopper and Foodie Friday, Fresh Food Friday.

Have a great Thursday,

This Recipe has been featured as a Top 3 Pick
at Lark's Country Kitchen.

Thank you, Lark!

Caramel Ice Cream Recipe

Flickr/daveleb

Here's a recipe to help you (and me) beat the heat. I love to make homemade ice cream, and if you haven't tried it, you haven't realized how easy it is. It is much better tasting than most store-bought ice cream and much cheaper too. I love that I get to control the quality of my ingredients and try out all sorts of wonderful flavors I would not be able to buy from a brand. Children particularly love to make their own ice cream, even if they have to crank a handle to get it. They get fascinated looking at it form into a solid.

Link up your vintage recipes below. Any recipe approximately 10 years or older qualifies.  It could be one for your newlywed days, one from your mom, an aunt, a grandmother. It could come from an old cookbook or magazine, and old recipe postcard, etc. Let us know where you got the recipe and follow the basic blogging etiquette good for any linky party:

1. Leave the link to your post so that everyone can find your recipe even months and years from now;
2. Link back to your hostesses in your posts since they link to you. It is mutually beneficial;
3. Enjoy visiting each other, discovering new blogs and making blog friends. This is what linky parties and blogging are all about.

Vintage Recipe Thursday: Pineapple Ice Cream Recipe

This pineapple ice cream can instantly transport you to Hawaii, even if you are going on a staycation. That's what flavors and scents do to us. One whiff of a certain perfume, and we are a child in the arms of our grandmother. One bite of pineapple and we are on vacation in Hawaii.

This recipe couldn't be any easier, just blend the ingredients together, pour into your ice cream maker, and ... DONE.

With an electric ice cream maker, you'll be eating this ice cream in about 20 minutes.  So don't miss out.  Make your own ice cream.

Vintage Recipe Thursday: Peppermint Ice Cream Recipe

Peppermint Crush Ice Cream

Welcome back to Vintage Recipe Thursday.  Please link up your Vintage Recipes below.  If you have an extra post from last Thursday, please feel free to link that one too.

If you didn't see my previous post, Blogger was having more problems last week.  I was not able to post on Wednesday or Thursday, and I was finally able to get back into Blogger to post just minutes before Friday. I was also not able to comment on Blogger blogs, so if you haven't seen me around, that's why.  Several of you also e-mailed me to let me know you were unable to comment on my blog during that time.  I appreciate you letting me know.  Thank you.  I don't know how wide-spread the problem was, but several people I follow on Twitter were commenting that they also could not post.  I'm linking early to make sure this post publishes, and does not remain in Blogger's auto-scheduled list which has also been happening, but you're not too late to link even if you see this on Thursday or anytime during the week.

I'm sharing an ice cream recipe again this week.  We have been having extreme temperatures, and eating a lot of ice cream to cool down so it's definitely on my mind.  How about some peppermint ice cream?  Peppermint should be quite refreshing.

I love sweetened condensed milk.  Don't you?

This recipe is for up to 20 people, not just one -- you would seriously get sick.  This dessert is super easy.  There's no baking, and no standing over a stove either.  It can be made ahead of time and kept in the freezer for up to about 2 months, so it is great for parties, impromptu guests, or those harried days when the whole family is screaming for dinner.
