Ingredients

200 g pistachios (shells removed)
400 g chilled full-fat canned coconut milk or coconut cream (*see recipe notes, use only the thick part from the top of the can)
180 ml pure maple syrup (more or less to taste)
60 ml almond milk (or other plant-based milk)
60 g coconut oil (solid)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon almond extract (optional, but recommended)
pinch sea salt (optional, but recommended)
30 g pistachios (shells removed, for garnish)

Instructions

1. To soak the pistachios, add them to a large bowl, cover with water and refrigerate overnight or for a minimum of 4 hours. Alternatively, you can quick-soak them in boiled water for 30 mins to an hour. 2. Rinse the pistachios with clean water and remove as many of the skins as possible. They should come off easily using your fingers as the water will have loosened them. 3. Add all the ingredients to your high-speed blender and blitz until completely smooth and creamy without any lumps. 4. Pour the mixture into the ice cream maker and churn according to the device's instructions (the one I use needs to churn for about 30-40 minutes). 5. Transfer the ice cream to an airtight container, garnish with chopped pistachios and freeze for 4 hours. 6. Allow it to defrost for 10 minutes before serving. Heat your ice cream scoop in hot water before scooping. 7. This vegan pistachio ice cream will keep for a couple of months in an airtight container in the freezer.
