Ingredients
- 400 ml Coconut milk
- 250 grams Dairy-free yogurt (plain, unsweetened)
- 120 ml Maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the coconut milk, maple syrup, and salt. Stir well and heat until hot but not boiling.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 3 tablespoons of cold water to form a slurry. Pour the slurry into the saucepan and whisk continuously for about 3-4 minutes, until the mixture thickens slightly.
Step 3
Remove the saucepan from heat and let it cool for about 10 minutes.
Step 4
Once cooled, transfer the mixture to a blender. Add the dairy-free yogurt, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Blend until smooth and well combined.
Step 5
Pour the blended mixture into a shallow, freezer-safe container. Cover with a lid or plastic wrap.
Step 6
Freeze the mixture for at least 4 hours, or until solidified. For the creamiest texture, stir the mixture every 30 minutes during the first 2 hours to break up ice crystals, or use an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Step 7
Allow the ice cream to thaw at room temperature for about 10 minutes before scooping. Serve and enjoy your creamy, dairy-free yogurt ice cream!
