Number Of Ingredients 4

3 cups unsweetened full-fat (regular) coconut milk or cream
¾ cup granulated sugar
2 tbsp cornstarch
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, whisk together the coconut milk, sugar, cornstarch, and vanilla bean, if using. Set over medium-high heat and bring to a boil, whisking constantly. Lower the heat and simmer until the mixture thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat. Let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for 4 hours, or preferably overnight. (Leave the vanilla bean in while the vegan gelato custard cools.)The vegan gelato base must be thoroughly cool before churning: this will produce the smoothest, silkiest texture.
  • Once cool, fish out and discard the vanilla bean, or, if making a fruit-flavored vegan gelato, whisk the fruit puree of your choice into the vegan gelato base. You need 2 cups (500 ml) fruit puree to produce a flavorful fruit-based vegan gelato.
  • Strain the vegan gelato to get the smoothest texture. Pour into the bowl of an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. Stop the machine when the gelato is thick and icy but still easily spoonable.
  • STORAGE: Transfer the vegan gelato to an airtight container and freeze until firm, about two hours. The gelato will keep, frozen, for up to two weeks.Vegan gelato is at its creamiest and best if enjoyed within 2 weeks. Past that, some ice crystals will inevitably start forming (especially if the gelato is kept in the freezer section of a regular fridge, as opposed to a chest freezer) and the texture won't be quite as smooth. The gelato will still be perfectly edible for up to 2 months, but my advice is: enjoy is as quickly as possible after churning.
  • SERVING: Always take vegan gelato out to room temperature 20 minutes before serving to make it easier to scoop and enjoy it at its ideal temperature and texture.

DAIRY-FREE, SUGAR-FREE MANGO GELATO



Dairy-Free, Sugar-Free Mango Gelato image

The best birthday present I've had in recent years is my super cool gelato machine. We can have the best gelato ever in usually 30 minutes. No pre-freezing of bowls, no salt or ice required. And we can do it again after a 5 minute rest for the machine (about the time it takes to serve up, wash the bowl, and mix up more gelato). We also discovered that most of the best recipes are between 3-5 ingredients. Oh, and one IMPORTANT tip: You can swap sugar for almost any sugar substitute but generally you want to use HALF the amount of sugar substitute (xylitol, erythritol) for any frozen dessert. I don't know why but I picked that tip up when I did my initial recipe search and I can confirm that forgetting to half the sugar creates something mostly inedible.

Time 40m

Yield 4-5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups mangoes
1/3 cup erythritol (or sugar substitute of your choice)
1/4 cup coconut milk
1/4 cup coconut cream
1/2 ounce triple sec (optional)
1/3 cup sugar-free chocolate chips (dairy free) (optional)

Steps:

  • Peel mango and remove from the seed.
  • Puree mango in a food processor. (We keep it chunky but blend as much as you want. ).
  • Add all the other ingredients. (A splash of some complementary alcohol will keep the gelato from sticking to the freezer bowl but is entirely optional.).
  • Scoop the mixture into the gelato bowl and turn it on.
  • Gelato should be ready in about 20-30 minutes.
  • Portion out the gelato and sprinkle the chocolate chips on top. (Well, some of us enjoy the chips. Others prefer their gelato without the distraction of chocolate.).
