Soak the raw cashews in hot water for 1 hour to soften. Drain and rinse before using.
In a high-powered blender, combine the full-fat coconut milk, unsweetened almond milk, soaked cashews, maple syrup, and sea salt. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
Slice the vanilla bean pod lengthwise and scrape out the seeds with a knife. Add both the seeds and the empty pod to the blender for maximum flavor.
Add the pure vanilla extract to the blender and blend again for 1 minute to fully incorporate all the ingredients.
Transfer the mixture to a medium-sized saucepan and heat on medium-low, whisking constantly to prevent the mixture from burning. Heat for about 5-8 minutes, or until it thickens slightly to the consistency of a heavy cream. Do not let it boil.
Remove from heat and discard the vanilla bean pod. Let the mixture cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.
Once chilled, pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions (usually about 20-30 minutes).
Transfer the churned ice cream to an airtight, freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 2 hours to firm up before serving.
Serve the Vegan Vanille Eis in bowls or cones, and enjoy!
