Ingredients
- 2 cups Full-fat coconut milk
- 1 cup Coconut cream
- 1 cup Coconut sugar
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Sea salt
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water
Directions
Step 1
Combine the cornstarch and water in a small bowl, stirring until smooth to create a slurry. Set aside.
Step 2
In a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat, mix the coconut milk, coconut cream, coconut sugar, and maple syrup. Heat the mixture, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar.
Step 3
Once the mixture starts to steam, add the cornstarch slurry. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens slightly, about 5-7 minutes.
Step 4
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and sea salt.
Step 5
Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature before transferring it to the refrigerator to chill for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to fully develop the flavors.
Step 6
Once chilled, pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
Step 7
Transfer the churned ice cream into a lidded container and freeze for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
Step 8
Serve scoops of the vegan salted caramel ice cream and enjoy a rich and creamy dessert.
