Ingredients
- 400 ml Full-fat coconut milk
- 100 g Raw cashews
- 80 ml Maple syrup
- 2 tsp Vanilla bean paste
- 120 ml Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 pinch Pinch of sea salt
Directions
Step 1
Place the raw cashews in a small bowl and cover them in hot water. Let them soak for 30 minutes to soften.
Step 2
After soaking, drain and rinse the cashews thoroughly under cold water.
Step 3
In a high-powered blender, combine the soaked cashews, full-fat coconut milk, almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla bean paste, and a pinch of sea salt.
Step 4
Blend the mixture on high speed until completely smooth and creamy. This may take 1-2 minutes depending on your blender.
Step 5
Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness if desired by adding more maple syrup.
Step 6
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, typically about 20-25 minutes, until the mixture reaches a thick and creamy consistency.
Step 7
Transfer the churned ice cream into an airtight, freezer-safe container. Smooth the top with a spatula, cover with a lid, and freeze for at least 4 hours to firm up.
Step 8
Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly for easier scooping.
Step 9
Serve in bowls or cones and enjoy your vegan vanilleeis!
