Title: « Vegan Ice Cream: Creamy, Delicious, and Dairy-Free Treats »

  • 2 cups full-fat coconut milk (or any creamy plant-based milk like cashew or oat)
  • ½ cup sugar (coconut sugar, maple syrup, or agave syrup for natural sweetness)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Optional Flavor Additions:

  • Chocolate: Add ¼ cup cocoa powder or melted vegan chocolate.
  • Fruit: Add 1 cup puréed berries, mango, or banana.
  • Peanut Butter: Add 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter.
  • Coffee: Add 2 teaspoons instant coffee or espresso powder.

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Ice Cream Base

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine the coconut milk, sugar, and vanilla extract.
  2. Heat over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the sugar is fully dissolved (do not boil).
  3. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool to room temperature.

Step 2: Add Flavors (Optional)

  1. If adding flavors like cocoa powder, fruit purée, or coffee, stir them into the cooled base until fully combined.

Step 3: Chill the Mixture

  1. Pour the mixture into a bowl, cover it, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Step 4: Churn the Ice Cream

  1. Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions (usually 20–30 minutes) until thick and creamy.
  2. If you don’t have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow dish, freeze for 1 hour, then stir vigorously to break up ice crystals. Repeat every hour for 4 hours.

Step 5: Freeze and Serve

  1. Transfer the churned ice cream into an airtight container and freeze for an additional 2–4 hours for a firmer texture.
  2. Let it sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before scooping.
