Aquafaba Dairy-Free Coffee Ice Cream

July 3, 2016 by Ceara 66 Comments

Dairy-Free Coffee Ice Cream made with aquafaba and coconut sugar. The aquafaba makes this vegan ice cream extremely fluffy without the need for any eggs or dairy used in traditional ice cream recipes!

Dairy-Free Coffee Ice Cream

Okay, first-off, have you guys started using aquafaba in your kitchen yet? It’s basically vegan magic and it’s found in your can of chickpeas. Ever since aquafaba came into the spotlight, I have been LOVING it in my kitchen and putting it in everything. It works wonders in recipes from savory to sweet.

And makes this Vegan Toffee-Coffee Ice Cream oh-so incredibly…

Dairy-Free Coffee Ice Cream

FLUFFYYYYY!! ⇩⇩⇩

Dairy-Free Coffee Ice Cream

The other “secret” ingredient in this Aquafaba Dairy-Free Coffee Ice Cream is COCONUT SUGAR. Coconut Sugar is one of my favorite sweeteners to use in baking. It’s not only super sweeet but also has delicious toffee undertones that really shine through in sweet recipes. I almost called this recipe Aquafaba Coffee Toffee Vegan Dairy-Free Ice Cream (say that ten times fast, lol) but the title was getting a little bit too long. 😉

Dairy-Free Coffee Ice Cream

Once you start making Dairy Free Ice Cream at home, you definitely won’t want to go back to the store-bought stuff. Homemade Ice Cream calls for just a few ingredients (FIVE to be exact in this Aquafaba Dairy-Free Coffee Ice Cream) and all you really need is an ice cream maker. If you don’t have an ice cream maker, I would definitively recommend one, it’s one of my favorite appliances that gets a lot of LOVE in the Summertime.

Dairy-Free Coffee Ice Cream made with aquafaba. The aquafaba makes this vegan ice cream extremely fluffy without the need for any eggs or dairy! Sprinkle with coconut sugar to serve.
Author: Ceara
Recipe type: Dessert
Ingredients
  • 3 cups full fat coconut milk (2 cans)
  • ¼ cup aquafaba (liquid from chickpea can)
  • 2 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup coconut sugar
  • ¼ cup instant coffee granules
  • ¼ - ½ tsp sea salt
Directions
  1. Place coconut milk cans in the fridge overnight.
  2. In a large bowl (or KitchenAid), whisk aquafaba mixture until fluffy and soft peaks appear.
  3. Add the coconut milk, vanilla extract, coconut sugar, and instant coffee to the large bowl. Fold into the aquafaba mixture until combined. Taste test the mixture and add up to ½ tsp of sea salt, if necessary. The sea salt brings out the sweetness in the coconut sugar. You will not need it if your aquafaba came from a can with salted chickpeas.
  4. Add the mixture to your (frozen - see note) ice cream maker and mix for about 15-25 minutes until your ice cream turns into a soft serve consistency (see photo). Do not over-mix (if you notice your ice cream has begun to melt it is time to freeze it) or else your ice cream will become icy and will not be as creamy.
  5. Scoop ice cream into a glass dish (or loaf pan lined with parchment paper/plastic wrap), cover and freeze for an hour or two until the ice cream is completely frozen. Scoop onto an ice cream cone, garnish with coconut sugar and instant coffee.
Notes
1) Use only full-fat coconut milk in this recipe. Low-fat coconut milk will make icy (and not creamy) ice cream.
2) Make sure that your ice cream maker bowl is completely frozen before using it to make ice cream. It should be kept in the freezer overnight and there should not be any sloshing sound when you pick it up.
3) For the perfect ice cream scoop, take the ice cream out of the freezer and leave to soften for 2 minutes. Run your ice cream scoop under warm water and scoop by pressing hard into the ice cream - this guarantees a perfect scoop every time!

    If decor is something you’re keen on then turning it into a profession might
    be what exactly you’re looking for. While some
    places require interior designers to get licenses these laws vary by location. If
    you’re looking to alter careers without taking on more student loan debt,
    decor isn’t a bad choice. The majority of
    interior designers obtain start in the business enterprise by being
    the assistant for an existing firm or designer.

    As with a lot of jobs, it truly is becoming more and more common for individuals to get college degrees in interior planning.
    It is a popular major in numerous Chinese universities.
    Schools in the United States as well as the UK offer courses like Interior Architecture
    at the same time. Almost 25 % of all interior designers own their firms therefore, if running a business can be something you’ve
    always desired you’re not alone. The other 75 percent of
    professional interior designers work with firms of most sizes.

    Fun Fact
    As of 2017, the median salary for interior designers is slightly lower than $40,000 annually,
    based on Learn.org.

    Architecture firms often hire interior designers to brighten the lobbies and waiting aspects of corporate and government buildings.

    The majority of non-residential buildings you enter probably had an enclosed decorator, which shows
    the amount need there exists for them!

    I also believe that mesothelioma is a scarce form of melanoma that is usually found in people previously familiar with asbestos. Cancerous tissues form from the mesothelium, which is a defensive lining that covers the majority of the body’s bodily organs. These cells typically form within the lining in the lungs, stomach, or the sac which actually encircles one’s heart. Thanks for discussing your ideas.

    The construction industry incorporates a poor reputation regarding cost control, and tales of budget overspends are legion. This is often due to deficiencies in a and on the list of
    professionals who work inside it.

    Whoever should be to blame at the conclusion of the day, the issue can often be traced that the the
    initial budget was unrealistic initially. To set an inadequate budget, watch it overrun, and
    look for a scapegoat can have become common practice however it achieves
    nothing.

    It is therefore incredibly important that a sensible cost plan get ready and agreed with the earliest possible stage.
    Obviously, a holder will prepare rough budgets taking a look at basic project viability,
    but after he is able he should obtain advice from his selected
    team.

    Good professionals will not likely simply trust the rough budget already
    prepared. They will give objective advice, such as level of confidence inside estimate
    along with an assessment from the likely link
    between changes towards the specification, so
    which a realistic view may be taken from the owner. It is better to recognize the challenge immediately, and change the scope or specification to fit, instead of be forced
    into late changes or maybe omissions which slow up the effectiveness from the finished project.

    The design industry in Nigeria remains to be evolving and growing making room for a number of void screaming to get filled.

    Contrary to popular belief, home design or interior decoration aren’t the sole roles easily obtainable in the design space.
    Like any other industry, very good example, technology, you don’t
    should code to figure in that space. There
    are admin roles, marketing roles, media, storytellers,
    gatekeepers, the educationists, etc. More often than not, designers are experts in two or more regions of practice.

    This doesn’t come like a surprise because roles overlap i.e an inside designer can double as being a
    consultant and/or a stylist. There are a multitude of career options to
    select from and we will be highlighting some
    of the career offerings the look industry can give.

    Furniture Designer: Furniture designing is recognized
    as creativity materialising. For context, furniture is a movable bit
    of fitting employed in designing or decorating an area to make it habitable (Key word: movable).
    Furniture designers take into account function, form and fashion. They select
    the material and fabric that an object is created. You can see why furniture designers are the
    most crucial people with this field.

    Interior Designer: This is undoubtedly decreasing point
    of entry to get a “fresh in the mint” designer. The home design industry is quite
    versatile; from residential to hospitality to
    commercial design, interior designers have a very broader array of clients to pick from.

    Interior designers may create a niche by themselves by focusing on one of these
    fields or by only being a general designer.
    Generally, clients prefer to figure with designers which may have similar
    taste and magnificence with theirs simply because this makes communication easier and decreases the back and forth linked to trying to explain their wants
    and needs for space. That being said, make sure you stick to your design style or pattern you select for yourself as there is a
    client for all.

    By the turn with the 20th century, amateur advisors and publications were increasingly challenging the monopoly
    the large retail companies had on home design. English feminist author Mary Haweis wrote a number of widely read essays inside
    the 1880s during which she derided the eagerness which aspiring middle-class people furnished their houses in accordance with the
    rigid models provided to them from the retailers.[10] She advocated the average person adoption of any particular
    style, tailor-made to anyone needs and preferences with the customer:

    “One of my strongest convictions, and one with the first canons of fine taste, is the fact that our houses, such as fish’s shell and also the bird’s nest, must represent our individual taste and habits.
    The move toward decoration to be a separate artistic profession, unrelated on the manufacturers and retailers, received an impetus while using 1899 formation from the Institute of British Decorators; with John Dibblee Crace becasue it is president, it represented almost 200 decorators round the country.[11] By 1915, the London Directory listed 127 individuals trading as interior decorators, ones 10 were women. Rhoda and Agnes Garrett were the 1st women to coach professionally as decorators in 1874. The importance of their focus on design was regarded at that time as over a par your of William Morris. In 1876, their work – Suggestions for House Decoration in Painting, Woodwork and Furniture – spread their applying for grants artistic home design to a wide middle-class audience.[12]

    Made this as written and it came out with a consistency more like an icy frozen milkshake. My dairy-eating boyfriend liked the coffee flavor but hated the texture. He didn’t think it was “creamy” at all and it melted really fast in the bowl. Cool that the aquafaba whisks up like egg whites though. I used my Kitchenaid mixer or it would have taken way too long by hand. Maybe next time I would add some vegan chocolate chips and some finely chopped nuts.

      Well did you use full fat coconut milk? The recipe did stated that regular coconut milk will make the ice cream “icy”.
      Full fat coconut milk can be obtain by freezing regular coconut milk, then scooping out the solids. (which make about 2/3 cups per can though, depends on the brand)
      Hope this helps lol

    Hi Ceara, I tried this today and it didn’t work out right. The coconut milk was solid, and the little bits never mixed in no matter how long I tried, so the finished ice cream has chunks of coconut everywhere. Would it be a good idea to heat up the coconut milk to bring it back to liquid?

    Also is it 2 tablespoons or teaspoons of vanilla? My ice cream tastes strongly of vanilla extract and coconut. I used the instant coffee but I don’t taste it in the mixture.

      I am not sure how regular coffee would work since the granules would not melt like they would for instant when churning the ice cream. And using coffee would mean too much liquid. You could try maybe a shot of cold espresso? I have not tried it myself though so can’t vouch for it! Would love to know how it turns out. Enjoy!

      Make sure to blend your coconut milk before using it in the recipe if it is separated. The coconut milk should be cold and creamy before using it in the ice cream. Using cold coconut milk makes the ice cream creamier than room temperature coconut milk. 🙂

      I shook the cans of coconut milk and then put them in the refrigerator for a day. When I opened them, there was a lot of separated coconut oil that was really hard from being chilled. I stirred together everything but the whipped aguafaba before folding it in. I put a lot of work into crushing and mixing in the hard oil, but there were still some crunchy chunks of coconut oil in the finished product. If I make this again, I’ll mix WARM coconut oil, sugar, coffee and vanilla extract until smooth, then refrigerate that mixture overnight before whipping the aguafaba, folding it in, and freezing. I hope that will solve the problem of the hard chunks of solid oil.
      The flavor was good. I’m not a big fan of coconut (I always use “refined” coconut oil to avoid making things taste like coconut) but the strong coffee flavor covered that pretty well, plus the coconut sugar didn’t taste coconutty to me.

    Hi, is there a sugar free substitute you could recommend?

      You could try flavoured stevia, like this one?

      But the sugar might help with the texture, so give it a go and see how it turns out!

    Hi Ceara, just wondering if the recipe works without the aquafaba, I’m guessing it won’t be as creamy but I don’t use chickpeas. Also do u need to mix the coffee with a bit of water so that it mixes in well? Looks delicious 😋 I’ve made other coconut cream based icecream, mango was a bit like Weis bar and a strawberry/raspberry that was tangy & masked the coconut flavour more than others 😊

    I was thinking about how aquafaba would work in ice cream!! You go girl. This looks delicious! I do have an ice cream maker so it looks like I need to break it out and put it to good use. Thanks for sharing! -Jess

    Who would have thought that aquafaba would yield such a creamy ice cream!? Such a genius idea to use it!! This ice cream looks amazing! 😀
