Dear friends π,
This is my fourth daily ice cream post! As announced in one of my recent posts, I will keep you updated with my vegan ice cream recipes.
This time, it is a vegan vanilla raspberry ice cream with whipped soy cream.
I have to confess that - compared to the other ice creams so far - this one is probably a little more of a sin because it is not made 100% out of fruits. It contains coconut milk and coconut cream and thus might best be eaten only as an occasional treat, but not daily.
Furthermore, this one needs a little bit more preparation effort and time, but it is so worth it!
This recipe is also my entry to @heart-to-heart's #veganwednesday contest.
Ingredients for the vanilla ice cream
- 200 g medjool dates, pitted
- 500 g coconut milk
- 300 g cream of coconut
- 1 vanilla bean
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- a pinch of salt
Other ingredients
- 100g frozen raspberries
- soy whip cream
Preparation
- Let the dates soak in water over night.
- On the next day, drain the water and put the dates in a food processor or heavy-duty blender.
- Add all the other ingredients (except the vanilla bean) in the blender and blend it until you have a homogeneous mixture.
- Now put it in a pot and whisk it continuously.
- You can also briefly put the pot on the oven while you whisk it in order to achieve a more homogeneous and creamy result.
- Cut the vanilla bean open, scrape it and add the seed pulp to the mixture. Wisk it continuously to combine.
- Transfer the mixture into a container and put it into the fridge until it is cool.
- Then put it in the freezer.
- Mix it thouroughly with a handheld electric mixer every hour until it is frozen to creamy ice.
- If the ice stays in the freezer for longer, allow to thaw for about 10 minutes before eating.
- Add the vanilla ice cream and the raspberries into ice cream glasses.
- Whip the soy whip cream and top it on the ice cream.
- Finally, put a raspberry on top.
There you have it! π

I like it as an occasional treat (about once a month). I like it in combination with raspberries and ice cream. :)
You actually can also make vegan whipped cream with chickpeas. Look for example here:
