Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Fresh strawberries
- 1 can (13.5 oz) Full-fat coconut milk
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Powdered erythritol or monk fruit sweetener (optional for added sweetness)
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
Instructions
Wash and hull the fresh strawberries. Cut them into halves or quarters for easier blending.
In a blender or food processor, combine the strawberries, full-fat coconut milk, unsweetened almond milk, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt.
Blend the mixture until smooth and creamy. Taste the mix and, if desired, add powdered erythritol or monk fruit sweetener for additional sweetness. Blend again to incorporate.
Transfer the mixture to an airtight container or a bowl with a lid if you're using a hand-churn method.
If you have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into the machine and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, typically 20-25 minutes, until the ice cream reaches a thick, soft-serve consistency.
If you don’t have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into the container and place it in the freezer. Stir the mixture thoroughly every 30 minutes for the first 2-3 hours to break up any ice crystals and ensure a creamy texture.
Once the ice cream is firm (about 4-6 hours in the freezer), let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping to soften slightly.
Serve immediately and enjoy your sugar-free strawberry ice cream!
