Healthy Dairy Free Ice Cream Recipes // Chocolate Chip & Strawberries and Cream Soft Serve

[Open for the recipes]
Hey friends! It is finally warm enough to swim in our pool (hallelujah!) and I had some friends over to enjoy the lovely weather recently. As a little refresher and mid-afternoon dessert, I whipped up these two delicious soft serve variations, and they were a total hit with the guests if I do say so myself ^.^

*** I recommend popping these back into the freezer after blending for a couple more hours to get them the perfect consistency (especially the chocolate)
00:14 CHOCOLATE CHIP SOFT SERVE:
» 2 frozen bananas
» 1 fresh banana (or use another frozen banana if your blender can deal with that)
» 1 avocado (if you plan ahead, you can pop this into the freezer too)
» 2 tbsp pure maple syrup
» 2 tbsp raw cacao powder
» ½ tsp vanilla extract or vanilla bean powder
Blend in a high speed blender or food processor (you will have to scrape the sides of your machine down and stir the ice cream a lot for it to blend properly, don’t be discouraged!)
» Stir in some raw cacao nibs or dairy free dark chocolate chips for some crunch, and enjoy!
01:22 STRAWBERRIES N’ CREAM SOFT SERVE:
» 2 cups frozen strawberries
» 1 cup plant milk of your choice (I recommend something thicker and creamier like soy milk or oat milk for this recipe)
» OPTIONAL: 2 tbsp maple syrup if you don’t enjoy the tartness of the straws on their own
Blend in a high speed blender or food processor (you will have to scrape the sides of your machine down and stir the ice cream a lot for it to blend properly, don’t be discouraged!)
OPTIONAL TOPPINGS:
Both of these soft serves would be amazing with some PB2 sauce (my lord and saviour) or some carob/cacao sauce 😍 you can also top them with some nuts and puffed grains like I have done for some added crunchy texture :)
