Now I don’t know about you, but the past few months I realized that my sugar taste has changed! I was always a big fan of really sweet sweets, even though I am ball-busting level picky when it comes to desserts. Usually my motto is less is more. I like simple stuff. But lately I have noticed that I find foods ’sweet’ that other people try and say ‘its not sweet enough’ which I never expected to happen to me. I mean yeah I have a weird taste but I am always able to say what is sweet and what’s not. Well I guess people change. And sweetness tolerance is no exception. So after an inedible-y sweet coconut ice cream mix and a lot of thought I decided that the best way to make vegan ice cream should be simple, low fat, sugar free but tasty! I never liked heavy cream, whipped cream and buttery oily stuff in my foods or desserts as an omni so why would I like it as a vegan?? I mean yeah, decant is good but a high fat content sometimes makes me want to throw up!Its true! And I remembered an old favorite, fruit flavored frozen yogurt, and of course I decided to make my own vegan version which couldn’t be more simple. And you dont even really need an ice cream machine to make it.
You need :
-1cups unflavored, unsweetened soy yogurt
-1cups frozen blackberries
-1tsp agave syrup
-1 tsp vanilla extract
Note that this is a small batch, for 2 people, but I like to eat it ‘fresh’ and make more when I want. But you can double this. Just remember to use the same amount of blackberries and yogurt [lets say for 3 cups yogurt, 3 cups blackberries]and then adjust vanilla and agave to your taste.
Also if you if you don’t have an ice cream maker, you have to it it all.[NOT THAT THATS GOING TO BE A PROBLEM]So don’t freeze it for a later use unless you use an ice-cream maker.
Option 1:In a blender mix everything together and serve.
Option 2:For a creamier and firmer version after blending chill in the ice cream maker and serve
Option 3: If you want to get rid of the little seeds[I like them]you have to thaw blackberries-or use fresh, and put them through a juice maker to remove the seeds, then mix everything together and chill overnight. Next day freeze according to ice cream maker instructions.
Of course you can do this with any fruit, and if not using a machine dont forget to use frozen fruit.Enjoy!
