Ingredients
The recipe requires the following main ingredients:
- Pistachios: These shelled and soaked nuts are blended to create a smooth and nutty base, infusing the ice cream with rich pistachio flavor.
- Coconut Whipping Cream: The creamy coconut cream adds a luscious and velvety texture to the ice cream.
- Coconut Condensed Milk: This sweet and creamy ingredient enhances the overall sweetness and creaminess of the ice cream, while also helping to keep the texture smooth. You can substitute this with other liquid sweeteners.
- Almond Milk: Soy milk helps thin out the mixture and helps to balance the flavors. You can substitute this with other plant milk like soy or oat milk.
- Vanilla Extract: Lends a subtle yet essential flavor depth to the ice cream.
Instructions
Shell the pistachios and soak them in water overnight for easy blending.
In a blender, combine soaked pistachios, the creamy top of the coconut cream, coconut condensed milk, soy milk, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth.
Transfer the mixture to an airtight container, you can put a piece of plastic wrap close to the surface of the mixture before closing the lid, as this helps prevent forming ice crystals.
Freeze the mixture for 4 hours or overnight.
When ready to serve, chill the mixture for 10 minutes.
Scoop out the ice cream into bowls or ice cream cones. For easier scooping, dip your ice cream scoop in hot water beforehand. Garnish with chopped pistachios for more texture!
