Heilala Vanilla Vegan Ice Cream

20 min

Here's a simple vegan ice cream that is velvety smooth and creamy, even without the dairy. It is a spectacular flavor canvas and you can take it in any direction, but we went classic with straight-up vanilla. Helped generously by our friends at Heilala, we were able to get the sublime flavor of fresh whole vanilla beans just by adding a spoonful of vanilla paste from the jar.This ice cream gets it's creamy texture from a stellar lineup of coconut, cashew and oats, and it's made light and airy with a spin in the ice cream maker. Opt for refined coconut oil to keep the vanilla flavor shining through. Aside from melting the coconut oil, this staple summer recipe doesn't even require a stovetop. Just measure everything into the blender and give it a whirl! Just imagine all the flavors you can make...chocolate, cinnamon, lavender, turmeric, and more.
