    This recipe uses dates for a caramel taste. It is made in your blender in about 5 minutes.

    Let's get into the recipe.

    This salted caramel nice cream is

    • vegan, dairy free and gluten free

    What ingredients do I need to make vegan salted caramel ice cream?

    • bananas
    • vegan yogurt
    • dates
    • flaky salt

    Instructions to make nice cream with dates

    1. Add all ingredients to a high powered blender. Blend on low until bananas have started to break down, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed. Turn the blender up to high and blend until smooth.
    2. Add nice cream to a bowl or jar and top with desired toppings.

    WHAT BLENDER DO I USE?

    I have a vitamix 7500 series. This blender is an investment that will last you for 10+ years. I absolutely love mine.

    Storage Instructions

    If you have leftovers, store them in your freezer in a sealed container. Once you are ready to eat the leftovers, leave them out to thaw.

    Substitutions

    • Vegan yogurt could be subbed with cashew butter or 1 tablespoon plant milk. It can also be omitted entirely but it does make the nice cream creamy

    Other plant based treats to try

    • chocolate banana bites
    • mint chip nice cream
    • single serve blueberry crumble

      Can you omit the yogurt or add for example milk instead?
