OAT MILK ICE CREAM
This creamy vegan ice cream comes together easily with a base of store-bought oat milk. The addition of cashew butter and coconut oil gives the ice cream its creamy texture, and instead of using traditional egg yolks to thicken the base, we use tapioca starch (sometimes referred to as tapioca flour). The vanilla flavor is deepened and warmed from using cashew butter, maple syrup, and optional bourbon (which also helps keep the ice cream from setting up too hard in the freezer).

Steps:
- Combine 2 1/2 cups of the oat milk with the cashew butter, coconut oil, sugar, maple syrup, vanilla, bourbon (if using) and salt in a blender. Blend on medium speed until smooth, about 1 minute.
- Whisk the remaining 1/2 cup oat milk with the tapioca starch in a medium bowl to make a slurry and set aside.
- Transfer the blended mixture to a medium pot over medium heat. Once it comes to a simmer, whisk in the slurry. Cook, whisking constantly, until thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Strain the ice cream base through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl. Lightly press plastic wrap directly against the surface of the ice cream base to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate until completely chilled, about 3 hours. (For faster chilling, set the bowl of ice cream base in a bowl of ice water and refrigerate.)
- Pour the chilled base into an ice cream machine and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until it is the consistency of soft-serve (take care not to over-churn to prevent a grainy texture; see Cook's Note). Place the ice cream in the freezer to set up for at least 1 hour. Let sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before scooping.
THE ONLY ICE CREAM RECIPE YOU'LL EVER NEED
This silky, luscious and very classic custard can be used as the base for any ice cream flavor you can dream up. These particular proportions of milk and cream to egg yolk will give you a thick but not sticky ice cream that feels decadent but not heavy. For something a little lighter, use more milk and less cream, as long as the dairy adds up to 3 cups. You can also cut down on egg yolks for a thinner base, but don't go below three. Then flavor it any way you like. See the chart here for more than 16 flavor ideas. Or invent your own.

Steps:
- In a small pot, simmer heavy cream, milk, sugar and salt until sugar completely dissolves, about 5 minutes. Remove pot from heat. In a separate bowl, whisk yolks. Whisking constantly, slowly whisk about a third of the hot cream into the yolks, then whisk the yolk mixture back into the pot with the cream. Return pot to medium-low heat and gently cook until mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon (about 170 degrees on an instant-read thermometer).
- Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl. Cool mixture to room temperature. Cover and chill at least 4 hours or overnight. Churn in an ice cream machine according to manufacturers' instructions. Serve directly from the machine for soft serve, or store in freezer until needed.
SIMPLE VANILLA ICE MILK
I've found that I often prefer a lighter ice cream without all the heavy cream and eggs. Here is a recipe I found for a simple ice milk that can be tweaked with variations (add your favorite fruit, nut, etc.) This originally had more sugar, but I found it too sweet, and now the sugar matches this similar recipe for "Tahitian Vanilla Ice Milk" on this site. Cooking time is freezing time.
