I love ice cream. It’s hands-down one of my favorite treats – be it summer or winter. I can handle dairy OK, but occasionally I need to lay off the cow, so I decided to try my hand at making vanilla coconut milk ice cream.
Meanwhile, try out the vanilla and let me know what you think! It’s creamy, soft-serve like texture right out of the ice cream maker is magical. And it’s not overly sweet!
- In a saucepan over medium heat, heat coconut milk and vanilla. Don't boil, but just heat - about 5 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together egg yolks & coconut sugar.
- Add egg + sugar mixture to coconut milk. Whisk to combine. Add gelatin and continue whisking until dissolved.
- Turn off heat and allow mixture to cool before transferring to a separate bowl.
- Cover & place in freezer for about 30 minutes.
- Set up ice cream maker and operate according to instructions. Allow ice cream to churn for at least 20-30 minutes or until it has a soft-serve consistency.
- Serve immediately or transfer to a freezer-safe container & cover to serve later. If moving to freezer, when serving remove from freezer & allow to soften for about 5 minutes to be scoopable.
- Top with your fav sauces, toppings, add ins & ENJOY!
