Apricot Maple Ice Cream

Summer days are lazily lolling by, taking us into the hottest of summer's months. This season provides more fruits than most seasons, so when my husband's family passed on a bucket of apricots from their backyard, I set to work. I made jam, I baked some muffins, and I froze some for future projects.

This ice cream has the slightest hint of maple flavor, not too sweet and a darling little dessert on a hot summer day. I hope you give it a try. Enjoy!
