Pioneer Woman Ree Drummond Claims This Is the 1 Dish She Will Never Make Again

Ree Drummond, the beloved Pioneer Woman, has delighted fans with countless mouthwatering recipes over the years, from her famous cinnamon rolls to her family-friendly chicken spaghetti. However, not every culinary experiment turns out picture-perfect, even for a seasoned pro like Drummond. In a recent reveal, she shared a hilarious kitchen flop that left her swearing off one particular dish for good.. Here’s the scoop on her green tea ice cream disaster.

Ree Drummond’s Green Tea Ice Cream Fiasco

In a candid confession from the “The Pioneer Woman” magazine, the Food Network star recounted her ill-fated attempt at green tea ice cream.

Hoping to impress a ladies’ investment club, she took a creative detour by grinding green tea bags in a food processor instead of using matcha powder. The result? “It looked like mossy green sludge,” she confesses, admitting she served it anyway with high hopes.

Sadly, her guests weren’t fooled — 23 bowls went untouched. Drummond’s takeaway? “I buy my green tea ice cream now!” she declared with a laugh. Clearly, this mossy misadventure was a one-and-done disaster.

Vanilla Bean Ice Cream: A Creamy Redemption

Undeterred by her green tea flop, Drummond still embraces her love for crafting delicious ice cream treats. She has mastered other frozen delights, like her homemade vanilla bean ice cream.

This creamy treat, bursting with pure vanilla flavor from real vanilla beans, is a summer must-have in her book. She recommends pairing it with warm chocolate sheet cake or drizzling it with hot fudge for maximum decadence.

The process is simple: split a vanilla bean, scrape out the seeds, and let them infuse the cream mixture with their intense flavor. After churning, it’ll keep in the freezer for about a month, assuming your willpower holds out that long.

Fast, Fruity, and Chocolate-Orange Creations from ‘The Pioneer Woman’

Drummond’s ice cream adventures don’t stop at vanilla. Her fast and fruity ice cream whips up in a food processor with frozen fruit, Greek yogurt, and a touch of heavy cream, finished with bits of chopped chocolate.

For an easy no-churn option, her chocolate orange ice cream combines condensed milk, mascarpone, and orange zest, layered with chocolate sauce and crunchy waffle shell pieces. These recipes prove that while green tea ice cream may be off the menu, Drummond’s knack for frozen desserts remains as strong as ever.

“The Pioneer Woman” is now streaming on MAX, Amazon Prime, and Hulu.
