Skill Level: Easy
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh raspberries
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 cups full-fat coconut milk
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine the raspberries and sugar over medium heat. Stir frequently until the raspberries break down and the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and strain through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the seeds. Allow to cool completely.
- In a blender, combine the coconut milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt. Blend until smooth and creamy.
- Pour the coconut milk mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
- Carefully spoon one-third of the ice cream into a freezer-safe container. Drizzle one-third of the raspberry puree over the top. Repeat these layers two more times, gently swirling with a knife to create a ripple effect.
- Cover and freeze until firm, at least 4 hours. Before serving, let it sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly.
Helpful Tips
- For a smoother raspberry puree, use an immersion blender before straining.
- Experiment with other berry purees like blueberry or blackberry to create interesting variations.
- For a sugar-free version, substitute sugar with your preferred sweetener.
Storage Instructions
Store the Raspberry Ripple Ice Cream in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. Cover the surface with a piece of parchment paper to prevent ice crystals from forming.
Suggested Pairings
Serve this delightful ice cream with a fresh fruit salad, a warm slice of vegan brownie, or a crisp almond biscotti. For drinks, a refreshing mint iced tea or a tangy lemonade complements the flavors beautifully.
