I dream of healthy vegan ice cream!

Mango Coconut Ice Cream 























Yay its starting to get a little warmer here in Melbourne and that reminded me of this delicious treat we make alot over Summer.

I love this simple ice cream recipe, it is so so easy and super fast.

We keep our freezer ready with frozen peeled organic bananas, mangos and raspberries. So we are always ready when we need some yummy ice cream. 

Feel free to experiment with other fruit too or just plain banana. You can also add some protein powder if you like, I recommend this especially post workout on a hot day. What a dream! 


Organic Ingredients 
Raspberry coconut ice cream

Frozen half banana
frozen mango or 1 cup raspberries
approx 1/4 cup coconut cream

Method
  1. Blend fruit with about a tablespoon of coconut cream, until blended. 
  2. Add more coconut cream while still blending until mixture gets the creamy texture and thickness of Ice Cream. Depending on the Fruit, sometimes I add a little more or less coconut cream.
  3. Eat straight away. Fantastic as banana split with extra chopped activated walnuts and cacao nibs on top!  
Enjoy !  XX
