- 200 ml Coconut cream
- 2 tablespoons Matcha green tea powder
- 120 ml Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk the matcha green tea powder with maple syrup until well combined and no lumps remain.
Step 2
Add the full-fat coconut milk, coconut cream, vanilla extract, and salt to the matcha mixture.
Step 3
Whisk the mixture thoroughly until all the ingredients are well incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
Step 4
Transfer the mixture into a saucepan and gently heat over medium-low heat for about 3-5 minutes, stirring constantly. Ensure that the mixture is warm but not boiling.
Step 5
Remove from heat and allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.
Step 6
Once cooled, cover the mixture and chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or until completely cold.
Step 7
Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, generally around 20-25 minutes until the mixture thickens to a soft-serve consistency.
Step 8
Transfer the ice cream to a freezer-safe container. Smooth the top with a spatula, cover it with a lid or plastic wrap, and freeze for at least 2 hours or until firm.
Step 9
Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly. Serve in bowls or on cones for a delicious vegan treat.
