INGREDIENT NOTES:
VEGAN COTTAGE CHEESE:
- This is the core ingredient for your recipe. Here, we will use the vegan cottage cheese to prepare this ice cream. You will get a tangy flavor, and your ice cream will become creamy from it as well. Vegan cottage cheese also gives your ice cream smoothness. Use cashew cream for another option as well.
VEGAN MILK:
- Also, we need vegan milk for this ice cream, so it makes the mixture smoother. It’ll be easy for you to blend the ingredients if you use this milk. Any vegan milk, like cashew, oat, or almond, can be a good choice for this recipe.
MAPLE SYRUP:
- Adding maple syrup to your dessert will maintain the extra tangy taste of cottage cheese. It will include a sweet flavor in your ice cream as well. You may also use agave syrup for this purpose as a substitute.
VANILLA EXTRACT:
- You will get the traditional ice cream flavor from adding this. We will use vanilla extract to boost the sweet flavor in your dessert. You may try using coconut extract or almond extract for another idea as well.
SALT:
- Here, you will include a pinch of salt so your ice cream flavor becomes better. Salt also eliminates excess sweet taste in your dessert. Utilize sea salt as an alternative if you prefer.
