How to Make the Best Vegan Ice Cream

You will learn how to make the best tasting vegan ice cream you have ever had! When you enjoy this, remember that, if you are not already a vegan, food that is vegetable, fruit or plant derived is scrumptious, healthy and saves the planet!

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• A food processor
• Spatula
• Light plastic container to put into the freezer
• A microwave-safe 2 quart bowl with a lid
• A couple cups of organic sugar
• A half of a ripe, honeydew melon
• A rip avocado
• A half cup of nut butter
• A couple very ripe bananas

1. Put your bananas and half of your bag of 24 ounces of sugar mixed up slightly into the bowl. Cover it and microwave it on high for about 2 and 1/2 minutes until the mixture looks like baby food. And, watch out - this "baby" is really hot!

2. After you cool the bowl with its mixture down in some cold water in your sink, bring out your food processor.

3. Place the avocado that you have scooped out minus that seed in the middle into the processor with the nut butter and the "meat" of the honeydew melon (minus seeds). Add your cooled mixture, process two minutes and spatula it all into your plastic container to freeze. Freeze and eat.

Tips & Warnings

• I do not find it necessary to use an ice cream maker for my recipes for ice cream - and I have made many variations of this one with its particular ingredients. I guess that is because there is rather enough vegetable-source fat in them. (See nut butter and avocado above). Playing with the amount of sugar is the most easy variation of this if you are going to keep the same ingredients in your variation. Then try adding frozen or fresh berries into the heated or cooled mixture possibly to start your next variation. I have found, by the way, that processing about a quarter cup of raw organic sunflower seeds for a nut butter seems to create the most traditional ice cream flavor.
