A recipe on how to make Cherry Coconut Vegan Ice-Cream that uses only 2 ingredients for the base! It’s creamy, slightly sweet and so so indulgent. Create your own by adding your favorite toppings!
I have this thing where when I go to Trader Joe’s or Fresh Thyme, I’ll look in the non-dairy ice-cream section and admire the selection of coconut based, or soy based ice-cream. But the thing is, I usually NEVER buy them. I don’t know if it’s because I’m trying to save $7 on a small pint or what but I just can’t bring myself to splurging on one. And the last time I purchased one from Ben and Jerry’s non-dairy version.. it tasted off and it was not my jam.
Whether it’s me trying to save some dollas or what; I think the real reason is because I simply know that I can make it at home. I’ll also feel better that I’m in control of what goes into my ice-cream. No weird gums or whatever. Just simple, clean ingredients.
That’s why I’m SO excited to share with you this ice-cream. You can get rid of the cherry and chocolate and simply add whatever to the banana and coconut cream base.
It’s easy and SO good, I have a feeling that you won’t miss your store brands. So grab your food processor and get ready to indulge on this sweet treat 🙂 It’s a good one.
