I love grape! Anything grape. So when I got my hands on some Concord grapes last summer, I thought I’d try to lessen the sugar rush by turning them into Concord Grape Protein Gelato!
I received the grapes from my CSA, and they weren’t seedless. It was a bit time-consuming to seed the grapes, but it was worth it. This protein gelato is delicious! (But of course, go for the seedless grapes if you can!)
If you use frozen grapes, the freezing will be quicker. When you first blend it, though, you’ll get a fluffy texture. By stirring and freezing, it’ll become this gelato-like texture. Below are the instructions for using fresh grapes, but either way will work.
I really do love grape-flavored and grape-scented things. I use grape-scented curl cream, and I always have some Grapes of Tuscany scented candles from Glow Baby Glow on hand. :)
If you love grape as I do, you’ll love this Concord Grape Protein Gelato. Give it a try!
