Ingredients

For 8 people

  • 214-ounce cans coconut cream* or full-fat coconut milk ((see notes for brand recommendations))
  • 0.5 cuporganic cane sugar ((sub up to half with agave nectar or maple syrup))
  • 1 pinchsea salt
  • 2 tsppure vanilla extract
  • —1 vanilla bean pod ((split and scraped // or 1/4 - 1/2 tsp vanilla powder per 1 pod))

Steps

  1. 1

    The day or night before, place your ice cream churning bowl in the freezer to properly chill (see notes if you don't have an ice cream maker).

  2. 2

    The following day, add coconut milk, organic cane sugar (sub up to half with natural sweetener), sea salt, scraped vanilla bean and vanilla extract to a high-speed blender and blend on high until completely creamy and smooth for 1-2 minutes to fully dissolve the sugar. Add more cane sugar or agave if it needs more sweetness, or more vanilla if it needs more vanilla flavor.

  3. 3

    Add mixture directly to chilled ice cream maker and churn according to manufacturer’s instructions - about 45 minutes. It should look like soft serve (see photo). See notes if you don't have a churner.

  4. 4

    Once churned, transfer the ice cream to a large freezer-safe container (such as a loaf pan) and use a spoon to smooth the top.

  5. 5

    Cover securely and freeze for at least 4-6 hours or until firm. Set out for 5-10 minutes before serving to soften - a hot ice cream scoop also eases scooping.

  6. 6

    Will keep in the freezer for up to 10 days, though best when fresh. Pairs perfectly with pies, cakes, cookies and more!
