The diner classic dessert – scoops of chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry ice cream piled atop of banana halves – gets an upgrade from its nostalgic roots with a plant-based twist. We use hazelnut milk and our Druids Grove Purified Coconut Oil to create an ice cream base that doesn’t skimp on creaminess or a rich luscious texture. Drizzle with warm chocolate fudge and top with a cherry to be transported to a happy place.

Create Vanilla Ice Cream Base
Dry mix together the salt, sugar, and Perfect Ice Cream.
In a small heavy bottom pot whisk the hazelnut milk and vanilla Delipaste. Add the perfect Ice cream mixture and whisk until combined.
Place the pan over medium heat and cook to 180°F.
Remove from the heat and pour the mixture into a blender.
Begin blending on low for about 2 minutes. After the 2 minutes slowly pour in the melted coconut oil. Do this slowly so that it emulsifies into the ice cream base.
At this point separate the mixture into 3 even portions. Refrigerate the vanilla base at this point.
-
Create Strawberry & Chocolate Ice Cream
Add the strawberry puree to one of the containers and chocolate to the other. Mix well and refrigerate until cool.
-
Churn Ice Cream
Once cooled, churn each of the ice creams in an Ice Cream Machine following the manufacturer’s instructions.
Once the ice creams have been made place them in the freezer until set.
-
Garnish & Serve
Scoop one scoop of each ice cream into a bowl and garnish with chocolate sauce, strawberry sauce, bananas, walnuts, and cherries.
Serve immediately.

Is there an alternative to the Delipaste?

We prefer Delipaste for its ability to add a strong natural flavor. There are other similar products on the market but this is the best one that we’ve tested.

For how long should I keep a mix at 180F?
Is 30 min good enough?
