Ice Cream Base

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ice Cream Base

    In a medium saucepan, whisk together the oat milk, coconut cream, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Heat the mixture over medium heat until it's warm but not boiling.

  2. 2

    Thicken the Base

    In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with two tablespoons of cold oat milk until smooth. Slowly add this mixture to the warm oat milk mixture in the saucepan while whisking continuously. Cook for another 5-7 minutes, stirring until the mixture thickens slightly.

  3. 3

    Chill the Mixture

    Remove the saucepan from heat and let the mixture cool to room temperature. Then, cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until completely chilled.

  4. 4

    Churn the Ice Cream

    Once the mixture is chilled, pour it into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.

  5. 5

    Freeze

    Transfer the churned ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
