Description

Coconut Milk Ice Cream is a creamy, dairy-free dessert made with full-fat coconut milk, maple syrup, and tahini. It’s simple to make, rich in flavor, and perfect for a refreshing treat.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can full-fat coconut milk
  • 3/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • Optional toppings: sesame seeds, tart cherries, chocolate

Instructions

  1. Place the base of your ice cream maker in the freezer for at least 12 hours or overnight.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the coconut milk, maple syrup, and tahini. Whisk until smooth, or blend if needed for consistency.
  3. Pour the mixture into the ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, typically about 20 minutes, until thickened and creamy.
  4. Enjoy immediately for soft-serve texture or transfer to an airtight container and freeze for 1–2 hours for a firmer consistency.
  5. If frozen longer than 24 hours, allow to sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes before scooping.

Notes

  • Use full-fat coconut milk for the creamiest texture.
  • Blend the base mixture well to avoid chunky bits of coconut milk.
  • Freeze the ice cream maker bowl thoroughly for proper churning.
  • Store in an airtight container to prevent freezer burn.
  • Adjust sweetness by starting with less maple syrup and adding to taste.
