Who else LOVES ice cream?! It is one of my favorite desserts, but I am lactose intolerant, and store bought ice cream has A LOT of “extra” ingredients my body does NOT need! My solution? Make my own!
This recipe is super easy to make, dairy free and no harmful ingredients or artificial sweeteners. I used an ice cream machine to make this, and it makes it so easy and fun!
Here is what you need:
1 can light, unsweetened coconut milk
1 cup dairy free milk ( I used coconut milk)
1 tsp guar gum
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup date syrup
2 tbsp cocoa powder
1/2 tsp almond or peanut butter (optional)
Directions:
place all ingredients in a blender and blend until well mixed. Pour into a frozen ice cream container and follow directions for your ice cream maker. Mine took about 10 minutes to be fully done. Please in a freezer safe container and place in freezer for a few hours. When you are ready to eat, let it stand at room temperature for a few minutes to soften up. Enjoy!
