Delicious Vegan Strawberry Ice Cream Recipe - Easy & Creamy

Ingredients

Servings:
3
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 1 can coconut milk (full fat)
  • 1 cup maple syrup (or agave syrup for sweetness)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
  • 1 cup strawberry puree (optional for added flavor)

Instructions

6 steps

  1. Prepare the Strawberries

    In a mixing bowl, combine fresh strawberries with lemon juice and mash them slightly.

    Reserve some whole strawberries for garnish.
  2. Blend the Mixture

    In a blender, combine the mashed strawberries, coconut milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, salt, and almond milk.

    Blend until smooth, adjusting sweetness to taste.
  3. Add Strawberry Puree

    If using, fold in the strawberry puree for a richer flavor.

    This step enhances the strawberry flavor.
  4. Chill the Mixture

    Transfer the mixture to a bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

    Chilling helps the flavors meld together.
  5. Churn the Ice Cream

    Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to manufacturer instructions.

    Churning incorporates air for a creamier texture.
  6. Freeze the Ice Cream

    Transfer the churned ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours.

    Let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping.
