Equipment

  • High-speed blender or food processor
  • Small Saucepan

Ingredients
  

For the Sauce

  • ¼ cup frozen strawberries
  • ½ tsp fresh lemon juice
  • ½ tbsp coconut sugar
  • 1 tbsp room temperature water
  • pinch pink salt
  • tsp vanilla extract

For the Ice Cream

  • ½ cup frozen strawberries
  • 1 medium frozen banana peeled and chopped
  • vegan whipped cream optional topping

Instructions
 

For the Sauce

  • In a saucepan over medium heat, combine strawberries with other compote ingredients. Constantly stir until the water bubbles away and it thickens. This will take 10-15 minutes.
  • Allow the mixture to cool down for an hour. You can also place this in the refrigerator to chill.

For the Ice Cream

  • Blend together the ingredients for the ice cream in a food processor until a thick ice cream consistency forms.
  • You may have to stop the blender and scrape down the sides to help the blending process, adding a splash of water or plant-based milk if needed as well.

To Assemble

  • Add the ice cream into a cup and pour the strawberry mixture over it. Top with whipped cream, if desired.
  • Enjoy!
