I just wrote off ice cream as something I’ll never enjoy again. Haven’t had it in like 2 years. This shit is fire

There’s good plant-based alternatives to almost any food you can think of nowadays, sometimes they’re just expensive. Coconut ice cream is pretty fire.
This one is made from cashew milk
Breyer’s oat milk vanilla is better than regular
Please share what it was… There was this amazing “ice cream” that was sold a few years ago that was made basically from frozen bananas and dates. I think it was called Hakuna Banana? Unfortunately, the company stopped making it. :(
Found it at a krogerIce cream from bananas and dates sounds fucking amazing though
Thanks! And for sure it was. I found this link with info and it seems that it had more ingredients than I thought, but main ingredients were still bananas, coconut milk, and dates. They had other flavors besides these. https://godairyfree.org/product-reviews/must-love-bananas-reviews
It probably wouldn’t be too difficult to make it at home, or perhaps someone else will eventually pick up the idea and start selling it again.
My best friend has a ninja creami and we are gonna give it a shot
Nice! Good luck! Maybe there are good recipes for frozen banana ice cream online too?
Haha I did the same thing when I first went vegan. That first summer I froze this terrible mash of dark chocolate, banana, and soy milk in a desperate attempt to replicate ice cream. It tasted good but was hard as a rock.
So Delicious was sort of a pioneer in the field but I think they’re kind of lagging behind in terms of quality nowadays. A lot of the major brands make plant based options now but grocers usually still have a pretty limited selection. Mix in style ice creams that are very sweet and have a lot of extra stuff in them seem to be easier to replicate than single plain flavors but anything that is oat or cashew based should taste pretty good. Coconut and almond milk products freeze too hard in my opinion.
Also nowadays you can get a half decent plant based version of just about anything if you look hard enough and you can afford it.
I know this sounds bougie as shit but you can make exceptional vegan ice cream at home with a Ninja Creami.
I couldn’t be arsed to buy one, feels like the thing I’d use for a week before it ends up never being used again.
For now I just blend up frozen berries with sweeten condensed milk and plop it in the freezer for ~6 hours
I’m almost fully vegan now and most things I prefer the vegan version.
It is straight up better. Every once in a while this lemon flavored one goes.on sale.or I just spend money. It tastes like the non crust part of a lemon meringue pie! Next level shit
Most vegan ice cream I’ve tried is great (my go-to is Oatly) but for some reason Halo Top’s (which was my go-to before I went vegan) vegan flavors all taste like sawdust.
Sorbet >>> Iced “cream”
relax sorbet is just creamed ice
😡
So Delicious has a really great cookie dough ice cream, the cookie dough has a carmelly taste to it that I really love
Vegan marshmallows >>> gelatin marshmallows too.
Yeah it’s come a long way since the rock hard plant milk ice that used to be the standard. “Dandies” (same brand that does vegan marshmallows) sells a soft serve mix that is super good; a few local places in [my lib city] have it ‘on tap’
Wait till ya try vegan sour cream!!
