How to Make Cookies and Cream Vegan Ice Cream

How to Make Cookies and Cream Vegan Ice Cream



Vegan ice cream is just as delicious as the dairy sort. The ice cream turns out to taste just like cookies and cream; it is smooth and creamy, with a bit of crunch from the cookies. The chocolaty color is due to the fact that crushing up some cookies very finely, while leaving others in bigger chunks. If you only want chunks, stir in the crushed up cookies after the ice cream base has churned in the ice cream maker. And yes, it is thoroughly recommended that you use an ice cream maker for this recipe.
This works best with low fat soy milk, which will yield a slightly creamier outcome than non-fat. Using vanilla soy milk will give you even more vanilla flavor.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups vanilla soy milk
  • 5 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1/2 vanilla bean, split
  • 1/2 tsp almond extract
  • 6-10 vegan cookies, chocolate preferably (depending on how much cookie you want!)

Steps

  1. In a large saucepan, combine 2 1/2 cups vanilla soy milk, sugar and vanilla bean. Bring to a simmer, then scrape out the vanilla bean, stirring the seeds into the milk mixture, and discard the pod.
  2. Whisk cornstarch together with remaining 1/2 cup soy milk and pour into the hot vanilla milk mixture, while whisking constantly.
  3. Reduce heat to medium low and, stirring occasionally, cook until it has thickened and starts to bubble (3-5 minutes). Stir in almond extract.
  4. Refrigerate until cold.
  5. Crush cookies and add both cookies and chilled cream base into your ice cream maker and freeze according to directions.

Tips

  • Makes 4 generous servings, more than enough to cool you off on a hot day.

An Alternative To Gelatin For Vegetarians Author: Jesus Smay Gelatin serves both nutritional and culinary roles in nonvegetarian diets; however, a lot of vegetarians and all vegans do not consume gelatin in its many forms because it is often created out of boiled pig skins and dissolved veal cartilage and bones. This leaves vegetarians with a gap in cooking functionality when a recipe calls for a gel or thickening agent. It also leaves vegetarians with fewer options if they need a source of gelatin to increase bone and cartilage health. If you are a vegetarian and you are looking for something to replace gelatin, do not despair. Here are some alternative options for you: Use a rice starch alternative. A&B Ingredients recently developed a rice starch alternative to gelatins that mimics the cooking functionality of gelatins closely. Use a soy-based alternative. Soyfoods USA developed NuSoy Gel, a gelatin alternative which was created entirely out of of soy isoflavones a

Healthy Vegan Banana Bread Recipe

Healthy Vegan Banana Bread Recipe Author: Matthew Kaplan Now that the weather is getting to be a bit cooler, I have a strong urge to be busting out my baking supplies and warming up the oven.

My mother would save loads of overripe bananas in our freezer, waiting to defrost them to make her delicious easy banana bread recipe.
