Vegan Almond Ice Cream
This vegan ice cream is so stinkin’ healthy and delicious! We are very picky and like to think of ourselves as connoisseurs of ice cream. We can now say, “This non-dairy ice cream is one of our favorites.” It is extremely creamy, tastefully delightful, and pleasing to the palate. You absolutely, positively, have to pull out your ice cream maker and get busy with this chickpea recipe really soon.
With the recent trend of aquafaba recipes we decided to give chickpea ice cream a try. We generally like to stick to our wheelhouse of salads, hummus, main dishes and such, but the ice cream idea really spoke to us and we thought why not? After all we love our vegan pistachio ice cream! We love that unlike aquafaba this recipe uses the whole bean and not just the cooking liquid. Chickpeas are to great not to use the whole bean!
Dried chickpeas are said to bring a powerhouse of protein and, quite honestly, they taste so much better than canned garbanzo beans. Our chickpea recipe for ice cream is free of gluten, oil, dairy and sugar, as well as vegan! This means our chickpea recipe for ice cream can be enjoyed by almost everyone. We loved pairing it with a waffle cone it brought out some caramel undertones we didn’t even know this ice cream had!

Hi Jackie: Yes, we used 2 packets due to the density and consistency of the ice cream. Our sweetening ingredients can always be adjusted to individual tastes. We hope you enjoy our Vegan Almond Ice Cream as much as we do. Happy churning!

1.75 ounces 1(49 grams) of Stevia is a lot. The individual packets are about a a gram. Is this correct?
