Hemp milk has quite a creamy consistency so you don't really need many other ingredients to make it the perfect ice cream base. Mix it with stevia, maple syrup and a vanilla bean and you have the perfect substitute to a rich and creamy vanilla ice cream! The brownies are really good, especially when hot and put with the ice cream.
Ingredients for Vanilla Hemp Ice Cream
(makes a whole tub)
- 1 litre of hemp milk (I used a brand called Pacific and it had the best creamy taste- but I don't know if you can get that in the UK)
- 1 vanilla bean (scrape out the little seeds)
- 1 tsp of vanilla extract
- 3 tbs of maple syrup
- 2 packets of stevia / 10 drops of liquid stevia (or use 5 tbs of xylitol/ sugar or 3 more tbs of maple syrup)
- 1/4 tsp of salt
Method
- Pour into an ice cream maker and churn until completely frozen (around 25mins)
- ALTERNATIVELY put into ice cube trays, freeze and then mix up in a blender until a slushy ice cream. Refreeze in a tub.
Ingredients for the Brownies
(Makes around 6-7 BIG squares or 15 smaller squares)
- 1 can black beans (around 250g)
- 2 1/2 tbs of carob powder
- 1 tbs of dark cocoa powder
- 5 tbs choice of flour ( or oat flour: blended oats to make a fine flour)
- 1/4 tsp of salt
- 2 stevia packets (or 4 tbs of sugar/ xylitol)
- 3 tbs of maple syrup
- 2 tbs of honey (or more maple syrup)
- 3 tbs of coconut butter (I think coconut oil would work too)
- 3 tbs of applesauce/ 1 small banana or 1/2 a large banana
- 2 tsp of vanilla extract
- 4 tbs of hemp milk
- 1 1/2 tsp of baking powder
Method
- Pre heat a oven to 180 degrees C. Grease a small brownie dish with coconut oil.
- Put all ingredients in a food processor and blend until completely smooth
- Pour into the brownie dish and bake for 15 - 20 mins (depending on how gooey you want your brownies - I like mine gooey!)
- Leave to cool for 10mins then cut into squares.
Serve by stacking a large brownie with one scoop of ice cream and then drizzle in maple syrup. DELICIOUS!
