Creamy Peach and Walnut Ice Cream {Vegan}

By: Ana / 19 / Dessert, Summer, Vegan, Super easy vegan ice cream made with 4 ingredients only #vegan | TheAwesomeGreen.comPin

This is my first vegan ice cream attempt, and I can’t say how happy I am about the result! The creaminess, the sweetness, and rich taste…who would’ve thought I could obtain such an indulgence with only four ingredients and without the aid of an ice cream machine?

 

The simple base of this ice cream is a breeze, because you actually don’t need to do anything but freeze some ingredients, then add to the food processor and freeze again. That’s all! From there, you can work your magic with flavors, but if you don’t have time to do so, the base is delicious on its own and you can make it in minutes.

I would love to say this vegan ice cream base was my idea, but I actually found it in the lovely book N’Ice Cream by Tuulia and Vanelja—a beautiful experiment with flavours to create vegan ice creams that you can actually enjoy.

 

The girls kept things simple and easy, using blends of frozen bananas and other fruits, nut butters, nut milks, or avocado. I especially love the idea of using bananas for creating the base, because you don’t need to add any kind of sweetener. Clean, healthy, and delicious!

Vegan ice cream with grilled peaches and mint | TheAwesomeGreen.comPin While last year I developed a taste for berry sorbet, I am still a fan of nutty flavours. I love the taste of peanut or almond butter, but this time I wanted to experiment with something new, so I’ve chosen walnuts and grilled peaches.

 

The result was awesome—creamy texture, sweet and sour, crunch—all vegan and healthy. Who needs more?

    One of the best desserts I ever ate is vegan banana ice cream with various fruits and spices added. Your combination of walnuts and grilled peaches sounds heavenly, Ana. I will have to try it these days…

    This looks dreamy! I’m eating banana ice cream almost daily these days. 😀 I never tried using coconut milk but it sounds like a great idea. I think it will turn up extra-creamy. Can’t wait to try your recipe! 😀
