Ingredients You Need
- Frozen Fruit – These juicy fruits add a burst of sweet goodness that makes this ice cream super refreshing and delicious! We use peaches, strawberries, and mangos but you can choose your own favorites to mix in.
- Coconut Milk – Creamy coconut milk gives the ice cream its rich, velvety texture and a hint of tropical flair, making this ice cream irresistibly smooth and luxurious.
- Maple Syrup – A drizzle of maple syrup is the perfect natural sweetener! It enhances the fruity flavors and adds a cozy sweetness that takes this ice cream to the next level.
How to Make Peaches and Strawberry Fruit Ice Cream
- Blend. Place all of the ingredients into a food processor and blend them until they are completely combined.
- Freeze. Once the mixture is smooth and creamy, use a rubber spatula or large spoon to transfer it to an airtight container and place it in the freezer.
- Serve. Allow the ice cream to freeze completely before scooping and serving.
Variations
- Berries – Swap out the peaches and mango for a mix of blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries for a tangy and vibrant berry flavor.
- Tropical – Infuse tons of tropical flavor by using pineapple and banana along with the mango. Add a squeeze of lime juice for an extra zing!
- Nuts – Sprinkle in some finely chopped nuts like almonds or pecans for a delightful crunch and added richness.
- Chocolate – Drizzle in some melted dark chocolate or add a handful of mini chocolate chips to create a decadent chocolate-fruit combo.
- Mint – Add a few fresh mint leaves or a drop of peppermint extract for a cool and refreshing twist.
- Spices – Mix in a pinch of cinnamon and nutmeg for a warm, spiced flavor that pairs perfectly with the fruity base.
- Coconut Crunch – Add some shredded coconut or coconut flakes for extra texture and a deeper coconut flavor.
Can I Store Leftovers?
Coconut milk-based ice cream can last for anywhere from 1 to 3 months in the freezer. However, we recommend eating it at its freshest.
To store, place the ice cream in a freezer-safe container and place it in the coldest part of your freezer.
