Vanilla Bean Ice Cream

 

Vanilla Bean Ice Cream

A dairy free sugar free ice cream

  • 5 egg yolks
  • 1/2 cup Swerve (or to desired sweetness)
  • 1 cup canned organic coconut milk (stirred well first)
  • 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
  • 1 vanilla bean (scraped clean)
  • 1/4 tsp Celtic sea salt
  1. In a medium saucepan place the egg yolks and sweeteners in to mix on high with a hand mixer. Whip yolks until light in color and double in size. Stir in the coconut milk.
  2. OPTIONAL to cook the custard (I skip this since I am not afraid of raw eggs): Place the saucepan onto medium heat on the stove and cook, stirring constantly ( see photo). Stir until thickened into a custard. Remove from heat and stir in the almond milk, vanilla bean seeds and salt. Let cool completely.
  3. Place into your ice cream machine (click HERE to find the one I love AND it is 1/2 off the original price!!!) and watch the magic happen within 45 or according to your ice cream maker’s directions.
  4. Freeze until set for vanilla ice cream or stir in your favorite swirl flavor to mix it up. Makes 5 servings.
