Ingredients
- 1 cup almond milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup tahini
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup chopped strawberries
Directions
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the almond milk, heavy cream, tahini, and granulated sugar until well combined and smooth.
- Stir in the vanilla extract until evenly incorporated.
- Place the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until chilled.
- Once chilled, pour the mixture into a shallow, freezer-safe container.
- Gently stir in the chopped strawberries, distributing them evenly throughout the mixture.
- Cover the container with plastic wrap or a lid and place it in the freezer.
- Allow the ice cream to freeze for about 1 hour.
- After 1 hour, remove the container from the freezer and give the mixture a good stir to break up any ice crystals that may have formed.
- Return the container to the freezer and continue freezing for another 2-3 hours, or until the ice cream is firm and scoopable.
- Once the ice cream is fully frozen, remove it from the freezer and let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly before serving.
- Scoop the almond and strawberry tahini ice cream into bowls or onto cones, and enjoy!
