You can enjoy this vegan pistachio almond ice cream, which is very creamy. It's rich, creamy, and full of nutty flavors because it's made with a mix of almond milk and coconut milk. It's the perfect treat for a cool day!
Ingredients: 2 cups unsweetened almond milk. 1 can 13.5 oz full-fat coconut milk. 1/2 cup raw cashews, soaked overnight. 1/3 cup maple syrup or agave nectar. 1/4 cup pistachios, shelled and chopped. 1/4 cup almonds, chopped. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. 1/2 teaspoon almond extract. Pinch of salt.
Instructions: In a blender, combine almond milk, coconut milk, soaked cashews, maple syrup, vanilla extract, almond extract, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth and creamy. Transfer the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually for about 25-30 minutes. During the last few minutes of churning, add chopped pistachios and almonds. Once the ice cream reaches a thick, soft-serve consistency, transfer it into a freezer-safe container, sprinkle extra chopped nuts on top if desired, and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm. Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly. Scoop and enjoy!
