Raspberry Buttermilk Ice Cream

Despite its name, buttermilk is lower in fat than cream or even whole milk. But the incredible creamy taste of this frozen concoction will have you trying buttermilk with other partners, such as strawberries or peaches. Just substitute the same amount of your favorite fresh fruit for the amount of berries called for here. Strain the raspberries through a sieve just before freezing if you want to eliminate the seeds.
