Pomegranate Ice Kreme - Feast Your Eyes

Pomegranate Ice Kreme - Feast Your Eyes">

Although cranberries usually reign supreme around Thanksgiving, the ruby pomegranate seems to be stealing some of the classic berry's thunder this season -- and understandably so, with its unique tart, fruity edge.

Flickr user Norwichnuts created this vegan Pomegranate Ice Kreme by simply combining two juiced pomegranates, two cups creamer, one cup powdered sugar and an added layer of pomegranate jelly and freezing it in an ice-cream maker. The "kreme" appears remarkably luscious and creamy, despite its vegan preparation. Topping the simple dessert with glazed pecans adds a salty complexity, as well as interesting texture and crunch.

Two weekends ago it was Pumpkin Pomegranate Cupcakes, this past weekend, it was a Red Velvet Cake, with pomegranate molasses, and pomegranate arils on top of the cream cream frosting. This morning, it's oatmeal with pomegranates and pomegranate molasses. Yeah, it's official I'm nuts about it.
