How to make vegan ice cream bars

It’s time to bust out that ice cream maker because the summer weather is officially here (at least in the south) and it’s brutal out there that’s why my churn bowl will live in the freezer all summer so I’m always ready to make a fresh batch of ice cream.

Here’s how to make it:

TIP Place the churn bowl of your ice cream maker into the freezer at least 24 hours before you are ready to make the ice cream to ensure it’s completely frozen.

Once your churn bowl is completely frozen, stir together your ice cream ingredients, add them to the churn bowl let your ice cream maker do it’s thing. Mine takes about 10-15 minutes to get nice and thick. 

You are now ready to fill your popsicle molds.

Freeze the popsicles overnight and then dipped them in melted chocolate.

Ingredients You Will Need

You are just six ingredients away from enjoying your own homemade vegan ice cream bar.

  • Coconut Cream – be sure you are using canned coconut cream for the creamiest ice cream
  • Vegan Yogurt – I love vanilla flavored vegan yogurt
  • Maple Syrup
  • vegan chocolate – chopped chocolate or chocolate chips will work
  • Coconut Oil – I prefer unrefined virgin coconut oil (it’s less processed but has a stronger “coconut flavor”
  • Chopped Almonds – or nuts of choice
