Peach Pie Sherbet

The buttermilk gives you just the hint of a buttermilk crust for this pie inspired sherbet. The cinnamon brown sugar peach combination is sure to be a happy substitute on the days its just too hot to bake! As seen on Photograzing!

I am so sick of going away parties. Only because I'm sick of people moving. Stephen moved on Monday. I'm less than thrilled to have to do a long distance stint in our relationship. But to top it off another of my friends, Clarissa, had her going away party. Saying goodbye to two people in one day should be banned. BANNED. You hear me? BANNED.

For Clarissa's going away party I made and brought this sherbet. I had buttermilk in the fridge. Which isn't a surprise. As soon as I make one thing with buttermilk I have to make four more just  to use up the rest of the buttermilk. I keep considering switching to a dry buttermilk, but I digress...I had to think up something for Clarissa using buttermilk, and got to thinking about what would happen if I combined peach juice and buttermilk, and before you knew it, it had turned into a peach pie sherbet.

So here we have it. My peach pie sherbet dedicated to Clarissa, a soon to be Georgia peach!
