Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tablespoons Stevia or monk fruit sweetener (granulated)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Instant espresso powder (optional, for coffee flavor)
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the unsweetened almond milk, stevia or monk fruit sweetener, vanilla extract, and instant espresso powder (if using) until the sweetener is fully dissolved and the mixture is well combined.
Pour the mixture into a shallow freezer-safe dish, such as a glass baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Place the dish in the freezer for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, use a fork to scrape and mix the frozen edges into the center, breaking up any ice crystals.
Repeat the process of scraping and mixing every 30 minutes for a total of 3 hours. This will give the granita its signature flaky and creamy texture.
Once the granita is fully frozen and flaky, fluff it with a fork to create light ice crystals. Serve immediately in serving glasses or bowls.
Enjoy this creamy granita guilt-free with just 25 calories per serving!
