Raspberry Fro - Co (Frozen treat)

One thing I miss as a vegan is not having frozen yogurt. I used to freeze yogurt is ice cube trays and blend them with frozen fruit and sweetener to make my own frozen yogurt. Now that I am on summer holiday I want to sit out in the sun and enjoy a delicious ice cream - so I was desperate to try and make a vegan substitute that would have the same enjoyable taste and creamy texture.  So I researched good substitutes and I came up with coconut milk as a really delicious substitute for yogurt - AND IT WORKED!! It is just as creamy and full of summery flavour! :)



Ingredients 

(Makes 4 servings) 
  • 1 can of coconut milk (or if you aren't vegan you can use regular yogurt)
  • 320g of frozen raspberries (or substitute any other kind of frozen fruit that you like) 
  • 3tsp of vanilla extract 
  • 2 packets of stevia / 3 packets of truvia 
  • If your blender has trouble with the frozen goods you can add 50ml of chosen milk (I used oat milk) 
  • Optional: 1tbs spoon cacao/ cocoa powder for chocolate flavour 
  • Optional: 1 frozen banana for added sweetness and thick flavour 

Method

  1. Pour the coconut milk into ice cube trays and  freeze overnight
  2. Put all ingredients into a blender 
  3. Blend until consistency of ice cream 
  4. Scoop it out and enjoy!! 
I am thinking about creating vegan sauce flavours for these FroCo's - so watch out for new recipes!
