Ingredients

For the Jam:

  • 2 cups blueberries frozen or fresh
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 2 teaspoons honey

For the Cashew Cookie Crumble:

  • 1 1/2 cup whole cashews
  • 1/2 cup arrowroot
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/3 cup coconut sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter melted

For the Ice Cream:

  • 2, 13.5 ounce cans of full-fat coconut milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons gelatin dissolved into 1/2 cup boiling water

Instructions

  • Bring all the ingredients for the jam to a simmer in a small to medium-sized sauce pan. Reduce heat, cover, and let it simmer for 30 minutes or until most of the berries have burst and it resembles a jam-like consistency.
  • Pull off heat and let it cool completely.
  • Preheat oven to 350 and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place the cashews, arrowroot, sea salt, and coconut sugar in a food processor and pulse until the cashews are mostly broken up, but you can still see some chunks.
  • Add the butter and pulse the food processor until it's pretty evenly combined.
  • Pour the cookie dough out onto the parchment paper and flatten into one large cookie.
  • Bake at 350 for 12-13 minutes, or until it just starts to turn golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.
  • Once cooled, break the cookie up into large chunks and set aside.
  • In your blender, blend the coconut milk, vanilla, honey, and dissolved gelatin together until smooth.
  • Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker frozen bin and follow the manufacturers instructions.
  • In a large bowl, add the ice cream to the cooled blueberry jam and broken cashew cookies. Give the mixture 4-5 stirs (or folds) and try to resist over-mixing. Spoon this into a loaf pan and freeze for about 1 hour.
  • From here, you can either serve and enjoy directly or spoon it into small serving bowls.
  • If you're preparing to enjoy at a later time, freeze the small bowls and then about 45 minutes before you plan to enjoy, place them in the refrigerator so that they may soften a bit.
  • Enjoy!
