Here’s a delicious and easy recipe for Vegan Strawberry Ice Cream that you can make at home. This recipe is dairy-free, uses simple ingredients, and requires no ice cream maker!

Ingredients

• 4 cups fresh strawberries (trimmed and diced, or use frozen)
• 1 tablespoon coconut sugar (omit if using frozen strawberries)
• 2 teaspoons lemon juice
• 1 can (15 oz.) full-fat coconut milk (chilled overnight)
• 1 can (7 oz.) dairy-free sweetened condensed milk (vanilla or plain)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

1. Macerate the Strawberries: In a bowl, combine the chopped strawberries with coconut sugar and lemon juice. Mix gently to combine and let sit for about 15-20 minutes. This allows the strawberries to release their natural juices.
2. Prepare the Coconut Milk: Open the chilled can of coconut milk and scoop out the solidified cream at the top into a mixing bowl. Discard the liquid or save it for another use.
3. Blend Ingredients: Add the macerated strawberries (including any juices) to the bowl with coconut cream. Then add the dairy-free sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract if using. Blend everything together until smooth.
4. Freeze: Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container, cover it tightly, and freeze for at least 4 hours or until solid.
5. Serve: Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes to soften slightly for easier scooping.

Enjoy your homemade vegan strawberry ice cream! This treat is perfect for hot days and can be customized with other fruits or toppings as desired.
