Servings 1 X 470ml tub

Ingredients
  

  • 175-200 g full fat coconut cream (see notes)
  • 175-200 g full fat or light coconut milk (see notes)
  • 80-100 g coconut condensed milk (I like Pandaroo brand, see notes)
  • Pinch of salt
  • Dash of vanilla bean paste or extract (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Whisk all the ingredients together in a medium mixing bowl. Taste and adjust for salt and vanilla (if you are using it).
  • Pour the mixture into a 470ml Ninja Creami tub. Freeze the mixture with the lid off for 12-24 hours.
  • When you are ready to consume, take the tub out and let it thaw for 10 minutes. This is optional, but it can lessen the need for re-spinning the Creami. Often Creamis that are too cold result in that icy, powdery texture on the first spin.
  • Process the ice cream on the ice cream function. If it is powdery or balled up, simply process it on ice cream again. Don't add any liquid - it will get there without it. When the consistency is smooth and creamy, you're good to go.
  • Store leftovers in the freezer with the lid on.

Notes

  • I recommend choosing a full fat coconut cream with around 20-25g fat per 100g. I have tested TCC brand coconut cream (with gums) and Ayam brand coconut cream (without gums). Read the notes in the body of the post for more information. 
  • You can use regular or light coconut cream here. Again, I have tested TCC with gums and Ayam without gums.  
  • I have not tested a version of this ice cream without coconut condensed milk.
  • I recommend Pandaroo brand in Australia because it is made in a similar fashion to regular condensed milk. Coles brand uses coconut nectar as their primary ingredient. There is more nectar than there is milk. It gives a super coconut flavour and a higher fructose content (which doesn't matter to everyone but it does to a FODMAPpy gal like me). 
  • On that note, this ice cream can be low FODMAP in the right serves. Coconut condensed milk is low FODMAP in 40g serves. It contains moderate fructans in serves of 85g or more. 
  • Full fat coconut cream and light coconut milk (without inulin, which is different to gums) are both low FODMAP in serves of up to 500g. So, choose these and your ice cream is low FODMAP in serves of 1/2 the tub or a little less (depending on how much condensed milk you use).
