Oat Milk Ice Cream
Ingredients
- 2 cups store-bought or homemade oat milk
- 1/2 cup nut butter of choice, or allergy-friendly sub
- 1/3 cup sweetener of choice
- 1/4 + 1/8 tsp salt
- optional add ins (see earlier in this post for flavor ideas)
Instructions
- *If you don’t have an ice cream maker or high-speed blender, see these directions.Whisk all ingredients together. If using an ice cream maker, pour the mixture in and follow the manufacturer’s instructions for your specific machine. Or if you have a high-speed blender like a Vitamix, pour into ice cube trays and freeze, then blend the ice cubes until smooth, using the tamper to blend evenly. Either serve straight from the machine or freeze up to an hour for a firmer texture. Because of the lack of preservatives, homemade ice cream is best the day it’s made, although you can technically freeze up to a month and thaw before serving.View Nutrition Facts

Hi would it work in a nutri blender?
Hmm sorry we have never tried one!
hey! Would this work if use sunflower oil instead of nut butter?
Thanks!
Hmm sorry we have never tried it! I think you could get ice milk out of a food processor, but not ice cream because you’d have to thaw it more than if using a vitamix, since otherwise the food processor wouldn’t blend.
Also can I use a food processor instead of a blender? Thanks so much!
Anyone tried this with something other than. It/seed butter? I can’t do tree nut or bananas, and I don’t want the strong flavor for sunflower or tahini. Could I do sweet potato? Or would a higher fat option like avocado work better?
Oh my gosh! this was INCREDIBLE. I am on a no dairy/sugar diet with some friends so I made this with stevia powder, PB, and then added in the cocoa and shredded coconut flakes. Amazing!!!!!
We made the peanut butter recipe and added a little vanilla extract. It was so creamy and delicious.
We tried this with banana and almond butter. Wow!! So creamy and delicious! I was concerned about the honey but I couldn’t even taste the honey. I can’t wait to try some other flavors and play with the recipe.
I made a Comment 10 months ago on the video page. Please, would you say what was the ratio of Rolled Oats to Water to make this a more Creamy Oat Milk for the Frozen cubes? Were there more Oats than you would use to make your Homemade Oat milk drinking mixture? Was there more Soaking required? Thank you. I would rather make my own Oat Milk from scratch. Have you tried Soaked Dates for your sweetener instead?
