Matcha / Green tea Ice cream (No cream No eggs)

My notion about Ice creams was that its best to get from store. I have tried my luck at making homemade ice creams with the perfect creamy texture..didn’t have much luck there. Few years back I even  lugged an ice cream maker from US, to tell the truth that is happily  sitting in the top cupboards, hardly ever used it. Luckily I recently moved my Kitchen Aid up as well. Now ice cream maker have a companyJ. Both of them are blissfully hibernating. I see some eye rolling .. heard that right, I rarely use my kitchen aid. Mainly because I usually bake for just 2 of us and for that I always rely on my 10 dollar hand held mixer which come handy . I have been using it for 3+ years and still going strong. Love it!

Back to ice creams, I have tried a few ice cream recipes with heavy cream the results were sort of ok but was not great and lacked that Oooph factor.And I never met the my target of meeting the right combination of healthy and yummy Ice creams. Unfortunately many ice-cream recipes which look yummy call for egg yolks or raw egg white.. raw egg whites in ice cream?? That is a bit too weird for me. Recently I stumbled on this recipe when looking for ways to use up my matcha powder. This one calls for no eggs or cream. Just low fat carnation milk and the results awesome and the Ooph factor is right there!!!The perfect Matcha ice cream which is not too sweet ,strong matcha flavor and a teeny tiny hint of bitterness from the Matcha powder..
