GREEN TEA COCONUT MILK ICE CREAM (LOW-GI)



Green Tea Coconut Milk Ice Cream (Low-GI) image

This ice cream recipe uses a can of coconut milk. The use of eggs is optional so it can be vegan. It has a very low GI (glycemic index), so it is diabetic-friendly and ideal for anyone who is watching their weight. Please adjust the amount of sugar according to your taste. I used an ice cream maker, but it is possible to make it without it. For detailed instructions on making ice cream without an ice cream maker, please Google "How to make ice cream without an ice cream maker."

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 (14.5-ounce) cans full-fat coconut milk*
1 tablespoon matcha green tea powder, to taste see note*
½ cup pure maple syrup, see note**

Steps:

  • Add all of the ingredients to a high-powered blender and blend until all the matcha chunks have dissolved (Note: If you have trouble getting the matcha to dissolve, you can heat the mixture on the stove top and whisk until combined. Be sure you refrigerate the mixture until completely cold before proceeding).
  • Pour the green tea ice cream base into your ice cream maker, following your ice cream maker's instructions (my ice cream maker requires me to freeze the bowl overnight before use). Allow the ice cream to churn until very thick, about 30 to 40 minutes. Either enjoy the ice cream like soft serve straight out of the ice cream maker, or transfer to a freezer-safe container and freeze 2 to 3 hours, until completely frozen.
  • When ready to eat, thaw the ice cream for 10 to 15 minutes, or until softened. Serve heaping scoops and enjoy!
