Print Recipe

Equipment

Optional Ice Cream maker

Ingredients

1 lb (450g) fresh strawberries
1 cup white sugar
1 cup coconut cream
½ cup whipping or heavy cream can use coconut cream in place
½ tsp vanilla flavoring
1 lime (juice)
½ tsp salt

Instructions

Wash and shuck the strawberries and toss into your blender. Add in the sugar and blend to a puree for a few minutes.
Add the coconut cream, whipping cream, lime juice, vanilla flavoring, and salt and blend for a few more minutes finishing on high speed.
Transfer to a container with a cover and refrigerate for at least two hours, preferably more.
When the mixture is very cold, place into your ice cream maker and churn until it has partly frozen. Place into a covered freezerproof container and freeze.
If you do not have an ice cream maker then transfer into a shallow covered container and freeze for at least one hour. Remove and whisk to break up ice crystals and introduce air using a small whisk, hand whizzer or fork. Repeat the hourly freezing and whisking process at least two more times.
Just before serving, remove from the freezer and allow to warm a little until scoopable and serve immediately.

Notes

For a non-dairy version suitable for vegans and anyone dairy averse just use more coconut cream in place of the heavy whipping cream in this recipe. The result will be almost the same with a slightly more coconut in the flavor.

Give the ice cream an extra mix during freezing too as coconut cream is marginally less fatty than most dairy whipping cream and the extra whisk will break up the additional ice crystals for the same smooth taste.
