Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Full-fat coconut milk
- 1 cup Coconut cream
- 0.5 cup Raw honey or maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Almond butter
- 0.25 cup Espresso or strong brewed coffee, cooled
- 2 tablespoons Cacao powder
- 2 tablespoons Arrowroot powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.25 cup Dark chocolate shavings (optional, Paleo-friendly)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, whisk together the coconut milk, coconut cream, raw honey or maple syrup, arrowroot powder, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt.
Set the saucepan over medium heat and cook the mixture, stirring constantly, for about 5 minutes or until it begins to thicken slightly. Do not let it boil.
Once thickened, remove the saucepan from heat. Stir in the almond butter until completely incorporated, then mix in the cooled espresso or strong brewed coffee.
Allow the base mixture to cool to room temperature, then transfer it to a blender. Add the cacao powder and blend until smooth and creamy.
Transfer the mixture to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or ideally overnight, to ensure it is fully chilled.
Once chilled, churn the mixture in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. If you don’t have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow pan, freeze, and stir every 30 minutes until it achieves a creamy consistency.
After churning, fold in the Paleo-friendly dark chocolate shavings, if using.
Transfer the ice cream to a freezer-safe container and freeze for 2-4 hours to firm up before serving.
Serve the Tiramisu Ice Cream scooped into bowls, optionally topped with more chocolate shavings or a dusting of cacao powder for garnish.
