I just purchased the designer series Blendtec and would like to try this recipe but my blendtec does not have the batters preset it also does not have the ice crush preset. Can I still make this recipe in my machine? If so what do you do for the other presets that might not be included on your machine?
Could it be possible to substitute the apple for applesauce?
I have a designer series Blendtec, too. The card that came with it tells you what each icon does. The Whisk does the batters and the cocktail glass crushes the ice. I don’t think you need a preset as in soups, for example. All batters are different anyway. I just use my judgment.
What about regular whole milk, or raw cows milk? I don’t purchase nut or soy milks that contain carageenan. :) Thanks for your help.
