Ice Cream Cones for Summer Breakfast!

Hot summer days sometimes wear down mothers' enthusiasm for cooking and cleaning up yet another meal.  Here's a breakfast we invented last week that quickly won cheers from the boys!  How about Breakfast Ice Cream Cones?! 

Super nourishing (shhh, don't tell, these 'good fats' really help their brains & immune system function well), really tasty, and the kids love 'breaking the rules!' What's not to love? Oh, and these are dairy-free also!

It DOES involve a quickie ice cream maker - Cuisinart has a couple of great versions, no salt and no mess, done in 10-20 minutes! We keep a can of full-fat coconut milk in the fridge (hence the ice cream is completed in 10 minutes because it's already chilled).

1 can, full fat coconut milk (Native Forest is my favorite)

1/4 cup elderberry syrup (we used my homemade, this one is similar and also only sweetened with honey, and our customers loved FLORA brand elderberry back when we had a storefront.)

1 cup or more berries of your choice

1 tsp vanilla

1-3 TB honey (complete vitamins, minerals & enzymes; great to get some raw honey locally?) or real maple syrup (good minerals, best flavor; also best locally if possible in your area)

Whip it all up with your hand blender or Vita-mixer, pour into the pre-chilled ice cream chamber, and turn it on until it is frozen into that great homemade ice cream texture.

Serve in cones of your choice. (We liked these GF ones.) And be THE most popular parent in town!  Don’t forget to make enough for the grown-ups too.
