Cuisine: desser
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups coconut milk
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin spice
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
Instructions
- Gather all the ingredients: 2 cups of coconut milk, 1 cup of pumpkin puree, 1/2 cup of maple syrup, 1 teaspoon of pumpkin spice, 1/4 teaspoon of sea salt, and 1/2 cup of rolled oats.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the coconut milk, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, pumpkin spice, and sea salt. Whisk together until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Once the mixture is smooth, fold in the rolled oats gently until they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
- Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker. Follow the manufacturer's instructions to churn the mixture until it reaches a soft-serve consistency, which usually takes about 20-30 minutes.
- If you do not have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow dish and place it in the freezer. Stir the mixture every 30 minutes for about 2-3 hours, until it reaches the desired consistency.
- Once the ice cream is ready, transfer it to an airtight container and freeze for an additional 1-2 hours for a firmer texture.
- Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly. Scoop into bowls or cones and enjoy your vegan pumpkin oat ice cream!
Tips
- For the creamiest texture, use full-fat coconut milk and ensure all ingredients are well-chilled before mixing.
- If you don't have an ice cream maker, the freezer method works great—just remember to stir frequently to prevent ice crystals.
- Toast the rolled oats lightly before adding for an enhanced nutty flavor.
- Experiment with additional spices like cinnamon or nutmeg to customize your ice cream.
- For extra indulgence, top with candied pecans or a drizzle of maple syrup before serving.
- The ice cream is best consumed within 3-4 days for optimal texture and flavor.
