Equipment
Ingredients
For The Healthy Vegan Strawberry Ice Cream:
- 1 cup raw cashews
- 6-8 medjool dates
- 1 can full fat coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup freeze dried strawberries
Instructions
- Begin by pitting the dates and adding them to a large bowl with the raw cashews. Cover completely and let soak for at least 4 hours*
- Blend the freeze dried strawberries into a dust.
- Once dates and cashews are soft, strain them* and add to the blender with the strawberry dust, along with the coconut milk and vanilla extract. Blend on high for a full minute, or until silky smooth.
- Pour into your ice cream machine and churn for 30-45 minutes, or until it sticks to the paddle.
- You can either serve immediately, or put in containers and freeze for an additional 3 hours and enjoy scoops!
Notes
- If using a standard blender, I recommend soaking dates and cashews overnight
- You can save the water that the dates and cashews were soaking in and add it to smoothies and such. It's super sweet and contains vitamins and minerals.
