Dairy Free Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream

A creamy and delicious Dairy Free Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream that is perfect all year round. This dairy free ice cream is made with healthy ingredients and is full of flavor!

This recipe was created by Jennifer from Predominately Paleo. Jennifer collaborated with Vivian from The Real Food Guide to bring you not only a digital ice cream cookbook but also a cookbook that is targeted toward people on AIP diets. They succeeded in their efforts.

We All Scream for Ice Cream not only includes recipes for ice cream without eggs and dairy, but they made ice cream sandwiches, brownies (that are the perfect vehicle for ice cream), ice cream cones and so much more. They blew my expectations beyond what I thought would be possible for an AIP frozen dessert cookbook.

This is perfect for you, if you are dealing with a lot of food sensitivity/allergy issues, have an autoimmune condition and prefer to eat AIP, or have children with multiple food sensitivity/allergy issues. This cookbook will really give you a sense that you can enjoy something sweet besides fruit.

It will bring some normalcy back into your life.  I hope you like it as much as I did.  You can purchase the digital cookbook here.

I was allowed to share this recipe with you to give you a taste of what to expect in this fantastic cookbook.

Tools for this recipe

For this recipe you will need:

Dairy Free Mint Chip Ice Cream Ingredients

• extra virgin coconut oil
• carob powder
• full fat coconut milk
• peppermint extract
• fresh mint leaves
• pure maple syrup
• fresh baby spinach

How to Make Dairy Free Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream

Step 1: Prep. Pre-freeze your ice cream maker’s insulated container. Or if you do not have an ice cream maker, place a baking dish in the freezer. Make your ‘chips’ by combining the coconut oil and carob powder in a shallow dish, and place it in the freezer for about 20 minutes, or until completely frozen.

Step 2: Combine the ingredients. In a blender or food processor, combine the ice cream ingredients. Blend until the leaves are well combined and your mixture is smooth. Add the homemade chocolate chips.

Step 3: Make the ice cream. Pour the mixture into the ice cream maker and follow the directions for your machine. Serve when ready.

If not using an ice cream maker

Pour mixture into a baking dish, and place it in the freezer. Freeze for 45 minutes.

Remove the mixture from the freezer and stir it well with a rubber spatula, making sure to break up any hard, frozen sections. You can also use an immersion blender, in your baking dish to do this. Place the mixture back in the freezer.

Every 30–45 minutes, check the ice cream mixture and mix or churn it until the ice cream is of the desired consistency. This should take about 2 to 3 hours.

Freeze longer for a harder ice cream, or allow to thaw slightly before serving for a softer texture.
