We have made so many frozen treats this summer! Hey, gotta stay cool in the Greece heat, right? We won’t promise this to be the last frozen treat of the year because the weather could stay warm for another month or so. However, we will try to bring you some “real food” recipes again soon! Here we made a delicious hazelnut chocolate ice cream and we really loved it! Instead of using vegan milk for this one we chose coconut cream and I must say the end result was a nice ice cream-like texture!
Ingredients:
- 4 frozen bananas
- 1/2 cup of coconut cream
- 1/2 cup of roasted hazelnuts (use raw hazelnuts for raw ice cream)
- 3 Tablespoons of cacao powder
- 1/2 cup of agave syrup
- 1 shake of Himalayan salt
Instructions:
- Add all the ingredients into a high powered blender
- Using a tamper, mash the frozen bananas and hazelnuts down towards the blades on the highest speed
- Remove from blender into a container safe for the freezer. Freeze ice cream for 24 hours (however, you can eat it right away if you would like. Over 24 hours it develops a really nice ice cream texture in the freezer).
- Enjoy!
This recipe is easy! Eat it right away or after letting it freeze, either way you will love it!

Looks amazing, I can’t wait to try it. The quinoa salad looks divine too. Thank you.
You’re welcome and thank you Leilani! We hope you enjoy them as much as we did!
Do you have to let it out for a while before scooping? Usually vegan ice cream is always too hard and impossible to scoop just out from the freezer. Does it have banana flavor?
Hi Miri,
With this recipe you do not have to let it sit out a while before scooping! It remains soft enough to eat with a regular spoon even after being in the freezer for 24 hours! It has more of a chocolate hazelnut flavor than anything else. We really like this one! It you try it, let us know what you think.
