This is another great recipe from our friends at A Happy Healthy Heart!
Serves: 6
Ready in: 5 hours
Ingredients:
- 2 cans full fat coconut milk
- ¼ cup coconut cream
- ½ cup raw sugar or maple syrup
- 2 tablespoon cornstarch (or 1 tablespoon arrowroot starch)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- ½ tbsp sea salt
-
Add ins: 4 peaches (fresh or frozen), cut into small chunks, and ¼ chopped pecans
Instructions:
- Heat coconut cream and 1 ½ cans of coconut milk in a large pot over low heat. In a small bowl or measuring cup, combine the remaining ½ can of coconut milk with starch. Stir and allow to sit for 5 minutes.
- Stir starched mixture into coconut milk mixture. Add in sugar and stir. Allow to cook until the mixture has become thick, almost pudding-like. Approximately 20-30 minutes.
- Remove from heat, and stir in vanilla. Pour mixture into a glass bowl, cover, and allow to cool in the refrigerator for at least an hour.
- Once the mixture is cool, use it with ice cream maker as per the manufacturer's instructions.
- Using a rubber spatula, begin to fold in peaches and pecans. Now, remove the ice cream from the machine and pour into a scooping pan. We use a loaf pan here!
- Cover the pan and freeze for another 3 hours, at least. If you have the time to stir it every hour, it will help it to remain super creamy. Then, remove from the freezer, allow it to thaw for a couple of minutes, and enjoy!
Tip: While we love the addition of pecans, feel free to mix up your mix-ins! The amount of delicious combos you can create is endless!
