Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/4 cups whole milk
1/2 cup slivered almonds (about 3 ounces), toasted, cooled, chopped
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup almond paste (not marzipan; about 2 1/2 ounces)
1 teaspoon almond extract

Steps:

  • Purée all ingredients with 1 1/4 cups water in a blender until smooth. Set a fine-mesh strainer over a 9x9x2" metal baking pan; strain, discarding solids. Freeze mixture for 1 hour. Stir, mashing any frozen parts with the back of a fork. Cover and freeze mixture until firm, about 2 hours. Using a fork, scrape granita vigorously to form icy flakes. DO AHEAD: Can be made 3 days ahead. Cover tightly with foil and keep frozen. Give it a quick scrape before serving.

This granita is delicious, but it's a bit too labor-intensive for me. I would prefer a recipe that's easier to make.

I had trouble getting the granita to freeze properly. I ended up having to put it in the freezer for longer than the recipe called for.

This granita is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar next time.

I made this granita with almond milk instead of regular milk and it turned out great! It's a great option for people with dairy allergies.

This granita is a great way to use up leftover almonds. I always have a bag of almonds in my pantry, so it's nice to have a recipe that I can use them in.
