Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Blend the strawberries: Start by placing the fresh hulled strawberries into a blender and blend until you achieve a smooth puree without any chunks.
- Add remaining ingredients: Pour in the coconut milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract to the strawberry puree. Blend these ingredients together until fully combined and creamy.
- Pour into container: Transfer the blended mixture into a freezer-safe container, smoothing the surface for even freezing.
- Freeze: Place the container in the freezer for at least 4 hours, allowing the mixture to firm up into ice cream consistency.
- Scoop and serve: Once frozen, scoop the vegan strawberry ice cream into bowls or cones and enjoy immediately.
Notes
- Use fully ripe strawberries for the best natural sweetness and flavor.
- If the mixture is too hard after freezing, allow it to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping.
- You can substitute maple syrup with agave nectar or another liquid sweetener if preferred.
- For a creamier texture, use full-fat coconut milk.
- This ice cream is best eaten within a week for optimal freshness.
