Pet-Friendly Cantaloupe Ice Cream

Servings: 2 cups

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups (300g) Frozen ripe cantaloupe
  • 2 tbsp Unsweetened yogurt

Equipment

  • Freezer
  • Food processor or blender

Method
 

  1. Make sure you have space for your cantaloupe in the freezer.
  2. Scrub the outside of the cantaloupe thoroughly.
  3. Slice the melon in half and remove seeds.
  4. Slice each half into quarters and remove skin, then dice the fruit into bite-sized chunks.
  5. Place cut melon in the freezer. The more space around your melon chunks, the faster they will freeze, so if you’re in a rush, place pieces on a baking sheet to speed things up.
  6. When completely frozen (2-4 hours or overnight), place about 2 cups (300g) of melon pieces into the food processor.
  7. Add 2 tablespoons of unsweetened yogurt.
  8. Blend until combined, adding a little cool water if needed to blend to your preferred consistency.

Notes

If your cat is lactose intolerant, you can skip the yogurt, though it does change the consistency. A little peanut butter can work instead.
Top your pet’s kibble with a few tablespoons, serve as part of dinner (replacing some of the usual food), or freeze into paw-shaped pops for the ultimate in homemade frozen cat treat goodness.
