Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 (14.5-ounce) cans full-fat coconut milk*
1 tablespoon matcha green tea powder, to taste see note*
½ cup pure maple syrup, see note**

Steps:

  • Add all of the ingredients to a high-powered blender and blend until all the matcha chunks have dissolved (Note: If you have trouble getting the matcha to dissolve, you can heat the mixture on the stove top and whisk until combined. Be sure you refrigerate the mixture until completely cold before proceeding).
  • Pour the green tea ice cream base into your ice cream maker, following your ice cream maker's instructions (my ice cream maker requires me to freeze the bowl overnight before use). Allow the ice cream to churn until very thick, about 30 to 40 minutes. Either enjoy the ice cream like soft serve straight out of the ice cream maker, or transfer to a freezer-safe container and freeze 2 to 3 hours, until completely frozen.
  • When ready to eat, thaw the ice cream for 10 to 15 minutes, or until softened. Serve heaping scoops and enjoy!

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 14-ounce can quality full-fat coconut milk ((splurge on the good stuff))
1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
2-3 Tbsp matcha green tea powder
1/4 cup pitted medjool dates
1/4 cup honey ((or maple syrup for vegan))
1/4 tsp xanthan gum

Steps:

  • Place coconut milk, almond milk, matcha, dates, and honey in a blender and blend until well combined. Add xanthan gum and mix again. Taste and adjust flavor as needed, adding more green tea powder, dates, or honey.
  • Transfer to a mixing bowl and let chill for at least a few hours. Then pour into a pre-chilled ice cream maker and operate according to manufacturer's instructions.
  • Once finished churning you can either eat it as soft serve or transfer it to a freezer-safe container and let harden for 4-6 hours.
  • Be sure to set out 20-30 minutes before serving to allow to soften.
  • If you don't have an ice cream maker, simply pour the "batter" into a freezer-safe container, cover, freeze, and stir/whisk every hour or so to aerate.
  • Will keep in the freezer for a week or so. Best when consumed fresh. I'm sure it would be lovely with pomegranates, fruit compote, or cacao nibs.
