Description
A creamy, guilt-free SunButter ice cream made with wholesome ingredients, perfect for Paleo and vegan diets.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 Medjool dates, pitted (125g)
- 1/3 cup SunButter (sunflower seed butter)
- 13.5 oz can of coconut cream (or full-fat coconut milk)
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- 1/4 cup miniature chocolate chips (or finely chopped chocolate)
Instructions
- Prep the Dates: Begin by boiling a pot of water. Place the pitted dates in a small bowl and pour the boiling water over them until fully submerged. Let them soak for 5-10 minutes.
- Blend Ingredients: Drain as much water as possible from the dates, then place them along with the SunButter in a food processor or high-powered blender. Blend until well combined, resembling a smooth paste.
- Add Creaminess: Pour in the coconut cream, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt into the date mixture. Blend until smooth and creamy.
- Churn the Ice Cream: Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker. Add the miniature chocolate chips and churn according to your device’s instructions (usually 15-20 minutes).
- Freeze for Firmness: Enjoy right away as a soft-serve or place the mixture into a container to freeze for an additional 1-2 hours.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer for up to a week. If too hard, let sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping.
