Description

A delicious and healthy dessert recipe that is gluten-free, dairy-free and Paleo approved. A Guest Post: Vegan & Paleo Vanilla Ice Cream Cake.


Ingredients

Units Scale

For the Crust

  • Recipe for Paleo Crust
  • 3 cups walnuts
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 3 tbsp Earth’s Best Vegan Butter Substitute

For the Ice Cream

  • 2 cups raw cashews
  • 2 cups unsweetened coconut milk (from a carton)
  • 1/2 cup 100% pure maple syrup (you may want to add this in increments depending on how sweet you’d like your ice cream)
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract

For the topping

  • Pomegranate seeds

Instructions

  1. Assemble Crust according to Mariel’s instructions.
  2. Allow crust to cool completely.
  3. Place Cashews into Blendtec or Vitamix. (If you are using a standard blender then be sure to soak your cashew overnight. Place Cashews in a bowl and fill with water until all the cashews are submerged. Once they have been soaked overnight or for 8 hours, drain the water before placing into standard blender.)
  4. Add all other ingredients (coconut milk, maple syrup, and vanilla)
  5. Blend completely until all nuts have been blended and your mixture is thick and creamy. If you have decided to add your maple syrup in increments, now is a good time to see if you’d like to be sweeter. If so, add a bit more and pulse 4-6 times until the maple syrup is blended. Taste and repeat if necessary.
  6. Once desired sweetness is reached and mixture is blended completely, pour directly on top of cooled pie crust to fill the pan.
  7. Place pie pan into freezer and allow to cool completely.
  8. When ready to eat, take out of freezer 5-10 minutes before you’d like to serve in order to allow it to thaw enough to make for an easy cut.
  9. Serve with pomegranate seeds on top and enjoy.
