No Churn Vegan Rum Raisin Ice Cream

31 July, 2016 by Giselle Rochford 2 Comments

Since July is National Ice Cream month, I had planned to end the Ice Cream Sundays series today. But I still have a few ideas for ice cold treats floating around in my brain, so I’ll probably extend it for a couple weeks. That being said, I wanted to end July with a bang so I’m sharing my favourite ice cream flavour with you a.k.a. vegan rum raisin ice cream.

You guyssss. This recipe is the reason for my obsession with no churn vegan ice cream. My favourite homemade ice cream before going diary free was rum & raisin. So last summer, when I decided to give coconut ice cream a try, vegan rum raisin ice cream was the first thing I attempted.

That initial attempt wasn’t the best but now that I’ve perfected my coconut cream + condensed coconut milk ice cream base I figured I should give it a go again. And man am I glad I did.

No Churn Vegan Rum Raisin Ice Cream

As expected, the recipe for this vegan rum raisin ice cream is pretty similar to the ones I used for my cherry chocolate and s’mores ice creams.

The only difference is that you need to soak your raisins in rum ahead of time. The first time I made this, I soaked mine for almost two days, so the final product was super rummy. But this time, just a couple of hours did the trick.

Once the raisins are ready you just need to whip your coconut cream and rum, mix in the condensed coconut milk and finally fold in the rum soaked raisins. Then wait impatiently for 6 – 8 hours while it freezes.

The resulting vegan rum raisin ice cream is decadent and creamy with a slight kick thanks to the rum soaked raisins. And despite. or maybe because of, the coconutty flavour, this is the perfect dairy-free alternative to traditional rum raisin ice cream.

      I randomly found condensed coconut milk in Marshall’s a couple months ago and it changed my life. I also tried making my own this weekend. It takes foreverrrr but it’s worth it IMO 😀

      And thank you! Those shots were surprisingly hard to take so I’m glad you like them <3

Fell in love with avo toast all over again this mo Fell in love with avo toast all over again this morning 😍😍😍

For a really long time avocado on toast was a staple in my diet. I had it almost every Tuesday - mostly so I could have something to post on #toasttuesday. But when I took my extended break from social media last year I realised that I didn't actually want it week after week. And that just made honouring the real cravings 💯 times more satisfying🥑🍞💚
.
Moral of the story: Don't let anything but your body & health - not a hashtag, fad or photo op - dictate what you eat. Just do you 👊🏾

Quick thoughts on routines/comfort zones: I went skiing with some friends this weekend which is so far out of my comfort zone I still can't believe I went.
.
1. I get really anxious when I'm away from my apartment overnight (and this trip was ✌ nights)
2. New experiences scare me, especially when heights and falling are involved.
3. I'm scarily attached to my weekend routine and messing with that sends me into a tailspin.
.
Why I'm glad I went: The day started off horribly. There were tears and I had to be rescued by professionals a couple times but I kept going and by the end of the day I was having so much fun I didn't want to leave the slopes. I was also so tired after half a day of skiing I fell asleep before I could even miss my apartment. Lastly, I totally survived without my weekend routine. I have a packed lunch for the day (leftover from last week) I got the store this morning to stock up for the week and I feel more at peace and energized today than I have in too many Mondays to count.
.
All that to say: don't let your fears, routines or comfort zones stop you from experiencing everything life has to offer 💁🏾
