This recipe was developed in partnership with The Rustic Vegan.
Active time: 30 mins
Total time: 3 hours
Freeze overnight before serving
Servings: 10-12
Ingredients
- 1 cup raw cashews, soaked overnight
- 2 cups full-fat canned coconut milk, chilled
- 1/2 cup vegan milk substitute of choice
- 1 cup triple mixed berries, thawed
- 3/4 cup Laird Superfood Organic Coconut Sugar
- 1 tbsp Laird Superfood Original Creamer
- 1 tbsp Laird Superfood Turmeric Creamer
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/8 tsp guar gum
- pinch of salt
Equipment
- High-speed blender
- Food processor
- 2 large mixing bowls
- 2 large zip-seal bags
- 1 large rectangular storage container
Instructions
- Drain and rinse cashews. Add cashews and vegan milk to blender and blend until it reaches a thick, creamy consistency.
- Add chilled coconut milk, coconut sugar, vanilla extract, guar gum, and salt to the mixture and blend to combine.
- Pour out half of the blended mixture into a mixing bowl and set aside. This will be the base for your turmeric ice cream - we don't want the two colors to mix just yet!
- Add the frozen berries and Laird Superfood Original Creamer to the remaining mixture in the blender and blend. This will be the base for your berry ice cream.
- Once your berry ice cream is well-blended, pour it into one of the zip-seal bags, seal, and set aside.
- Rinse out your blender. Pour the reserved ice cream base into the clean blender, add Laird Superfood Turmeric Creamer, and blend.
- Once your turmeric ice cream is well-blended, pour it into the second zip-seal bag and seal.
- Place both bags of ice cream in the freezer. Freeze for 2 hours.
- Remove both bags of ice cream from the freezer and massage to break up the mixtures.
- Empty berry ice cream into food processor and process until smooth and creamy. Set aside in a bowl.
- Rinse out your food processor. Repeat the process with your turmeric ice cream and set aside in a separate bowl.
- You will now begin scooping your ice cream into the rectangular container. To create a swirled effect when scooped, you want to arrange the different colored scoops in an alternating checkerboard pattern. Start by placing a scoop of berry ice cream into the corner, then place a scoop of turmeric beside it, followed by berry again, alternating colors until the row is complete. Repeat the same process with the second row, but start with turmeric this time.
- Add alternating rows of scoops in a single layer until bottom of the container is covered. Repeat with second layer and third layer if needed depending on the size of your container.
- Freeze overnight and enjoy!
