Anytime Ice Cream...super Healthy and Super Delicious!
- 2 cups unsweetened coconut cream (I use the coconut coffee creamer)
- 1 cup hemp milk
- 2 eggs (pasteurized)
- 14 cup Xylitol sweetener (I use Ultimate Sweetener birch sugar)
- 14 cup sugar
- 40 drops stevia (plain liquid. I used Stevita brand)
- 4 cups spinach, raw
- 3 tablespoons water, kefir grains (optional)
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 1 12 tablespoons vanilla
- 1 vanilla bean (scraped)
- 1 teaspoon gelatin
- 12 cup chocolate, finely chopped (optional)
- 2 tablespoons hot water
- Whip the eggs until thick, creamy, and foamy.
- Add xylitol and blend.
- Add sugar and blend.
- Add stevia and blend for another minute or two.
- In a Vitamix or other high speed blender combine milk, cream, spinach, coconut oil, and kefir grains.
- Start at a low setting to prevent splatter and then increase to full speed.
- Blend until totally smooth.
- Combine milk mix with eggs and blend well.
- Add vanilla and vanilla bean (the scraped bits only -- not the pod).
- Mix until well blended.
- Combine gelatin with hot water and dissolve.
- Continue to stir until the mixture is cooled down a bit.
- We don't want to cook the eggs in the ice cream mix!
- Pur gelatin into cream mix and whip or whisk together immediately.
- Pour into your ice cream maker and follow the manufacturer's directions for freezing.
- I personally own a 2 quart Cuisinart, but there are lots of great ones out there to choose from.
- When the ice cream is thick, but not quite finished, add the chocolate and continue to freeze until done.
- I then put the finished ice cream into insulated ice cream containers to help the ice cream freeze properly and not form ice crystals.
- Freeze in the freezer for a few hours and you will have nice firm ice cream.
- Another obvious variation (since this turns out gree) is to add mint leaves to the milk in the Vitamix or to add mint extract.
- My son does not like mint ice cream so we did a vanilla base.
- Makes 2 quarts or approximately 16 scoops.
