Ingredients

• 2 cans (13.5 oz each) Full-fat coconut milk
• 1 cup Coconut cream
• 1/2 cup Raw honey
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Matcha green tea powder
• 1/4 teaspoon Sea salt
• 1 tablespoon Arrowroot powder
• 1 tablespoon Water

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, mix the arrowroot powder with 1 tablespoon of water to create a slurry, and set aside.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, combine the coconut milk and coconut cream. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is warm but not boiling.

Step 3

Add the raw honey, vanilla extract, matcha green tea powder, and sea salt to the saucepan. Whisk continuously until all ingredients are well incorporated and the matcha powder is completely dissolved.

Step 4

Once the mixture is well combined, stir in the arrowroot slurry. Continue cooking over medium heat, stirring constantly, for about 5-7 minutes or until the mixture thickens slightly.

Step 5

Remove the saucepan from heat and let the mixture cool to room temperature. Once cooled, transfer it to a mixing bowl and cover the surface with plastic wrap, ensuring it touches the surface of the mixture to prevent a skin from forming.

Step 6

Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.

Step 7

Once chilled, pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until it reaches a creamy, soft-serve consistency.

Step 8

Transfer the churned ice cream to an airtight, freezer-safe container. Freeze for at least 2-4 hours to firm up before serving.

Step 9

Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly for easier scooping. Enjoy your Paleo Creamy Matcha Ice Cream!
