Vegan Superfood Ice Cream | The Healthy Family and Home

Vegan non-dairy ice cream is amazing and I have several delicious and tempting combinations on my website to choose from.

But this Vegan Superfood Ice Cream is for those who want to take ice cream to a whole new level.

This recipe transforms a traditional dessert into a powerhouse of nutrients that you will never find in a store-bought ice cream.

The star of the show in this recipe is the superfood, Moringa.

I was introduced to it by Ana at MOREMoringa.com and have fallen in love with it.

The nutritional profile leaves me speechless.

Just imagine this…by enjoying this non-dairy, vegan ice-cream treat and adding the Moringa superfood powder, you could also get (gram for gram):

17 x the calcium of milk
25 x the iron of spinach
10 x the vitamin A of carrots
9 x the protein of yogurt
15 x the potassium of bananas

And the entire recipe is organic, “almost” raw (coconut milk), vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, paleo-friendly and contains no refined sugar!

Tip #1: I used raw cacao nibs which are not sweet at all. If you’d like your ice cream a little sweeter, you can substitute with vegan, gluten-free mini chocolate chips.

Ingredients

For the ice cream

1 can organic full-fat coconut milk (13.5 ounce can)
1/4 cup organic unrefined granular sweetener
2 teaspoons organic moringa powder
1 teaspoon organic baobab powder

For the mix-in

1/2 cup organic raw cacao nibs

Directions

Step 1

Add the canned coconut milk, organic granular sweetener and moringa powder to a Vitamix, or other blender, and blend until it is smooth and well combined. Taste the mixture and add more sweetener, if you prefer.

Pour the ice cream mixture into your ice cream maker and prepare according to your machine's directions.

When it's finished, stir in the cacao nibs (or mini chocolate chips) by hand.

Option #1: For a soft-serve ice cream, serve and enjoy.
Option #2: For a firmer ice cream, put the inner ice cream container into the freezer for approximately 1 - 2 hours and it will be firm enough for you to scoop it out as shown in the photos.

Enjoy!
