Vegan Ice Cream - Crush that Sweet Tooth!

Alright, so… I wanted ice cream, and I remembered that I got an ice cream maker as a wedding present. Neat, right?

So, after a bit of googling, I made some ice cream that is really very good, and decent for you too!

Ingredients:

  • 1 can (13.5 oz) Coconut Milk
  • 1/3 cup Light Agave Nectar
  • 1 Tablespoon Cocoa Powder
  • 1 Teaspoon Vanilla

This recipe makes a little over 16 oz of ice cream, so if you're using a ceramic container (like I am), throw it in the freezer awhile to chill it out.

Combine all ingredients into a bowl and whisk it until its all mixed up.

Toss it in the ice cream maker, and let it do its thing for 20 minutes or so, until its the consistency of… you guessed it, soft ice cream!

Use a spatula to scoop it all into your container (from the freezer), and freeze it for about 4-5 hours. Enjoy! (note, pay no attention to the frozen bacon fat.)

You can make a ton of different flavors, I just used Cocoa and Vanilla for this. I've also used 1 Tablespoon cinnamon, and its very good!

For the entire batch, the total nutrition facts are:

  • 989 Calories
  • 63.5g Fat
  • 100.8 carbs

Its really good!
