ice cream flour bread thing

Mmm ice cream...

Oh wait! That's the reason why I'm on the site in the first place! :noway:

ice cream isn't the reason you're on this site. Lack of portion control is. Many, very healthy and fit, people on this site eat ice cream daily

Might have to try this.

Bump! I haffi keep track of this one. I'm particularly interested in the results folks have with experiments using gluten free or grain free flours. I guess you'd have to add something to make them rise, since this recipe calls for self-rising flour.

Mine is in the oven right now. I'm using Pamela's Gluten Free Pancake and Baking Mix with Blue Bunny Fat Free Vanilla Frozen Yogurt. (I added a little of my chai masala to give it a mild spice flavor.) I'll report back later when it's finished and I've tasted it.

Wow, intriguing! I will have to try this.

Oh the possibilities!

It turned out pretty nicely, even using the gluten-free pancake mix instead of flour. I would probably make this again sometime, experimenting with flavors or add-ins.

It's my policy to only make single-serving treats. So I was thinking about this recipe and suddenly I had an idea-- mug cake! I don't keep self-rising flour around because: why? So I mixed 1/4 c. pistachio ice cream with some whole wheat flour and a little baking powder. Then I nuked it for most of 2 minutes. It wasn't great but I think with some experimentation it would work. My batter was too stiff and it needed more baking powder. Maybe a bit of soda too. I think it needed less cooking too. But it's a good idea, right? I can't have a whole cake/bread in my house-- I'm one person, with an unlimited appetite.

Thanks for trying this out using a gluten free flour base (pancake mix) in place of the self rising flour. I am gluten intolerant and am always looking for new things to try, especially dessert and breakfast. Looks so easy, I need to try making this real soon using gluten free flours or pancake mix.

You could also make this recipe but use a muffin tin and then freeze the individual portions for later. My gluten-free one made 8 slices at 135 calories each.
