Ingredients
- 2 cans Full-fat coconut milk
- 5 pieces Medjool dates
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
Directions
Step 1
Ensure the cans of coconut milk have been refrigerated overnight. This helps the cream separate and thicken.
Step 2
Pit the Medjool dates and soak them in warm water for about 10 minutes to soften, then drain.
Step 3
Open the cans of coconut milk and scoop the thick cream into a blender. Reserve any remaining coconut water for another use or discard.
Step 4
Add the softened dates, vanilla extract, and sea salt to the blender with the coconut cream.
Step 5
Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides of the blender as needed. This may take about 2-3 minutes.
Step 6
Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness by adding an additional date if necessary, blending again until smooth.
Step 7
Pour the ice cream base into a loaf pan or a freezer-safe container, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Step 8
Cover the container tightly with plastic wrap or a lid and freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or until the ice cream is firm.
Step 9
Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for about 5-10 minutes to soften slightly, making it easier to scoop.
Step 10
Scoop and serve the ice cream as desired. Enjoy your Whole30 Coconut Ice Cream!
