After an hour, remove the container and beat the mixture with a whisk or fork to break up the ice crystals. Repeat this process every 30 minutes for about 2-3 hours, or until the mixture reaches the desired consistency.

Lactose Free Recipes 2: Chocolate and Hazelnut Ice Cream

Lactose-free chocolate and hazelnut ice cream is a delight that combines the rich flavor of organic cocoa with the crunchy texture and aroma of toasted hazelnuts. For this recipe, we will use coconut milk, a lactose-free alternative that provides creaminess and an exotic touch. Below are the steps to prepare this exquisite ice cream.

First, we gather the necessary ingredients: 400 ml of coconut milk, 100 grams of organic cocoa powder, 150 grams of coconut sugar, 100 grams of toasted hazelnuts and a pinch of salt. To infuse the flavor of the hazelnuts, it is advisable to crush them slightly before adding them to the mixture.

We start by heating the coconut milk in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the organic cocoa and coconut sugar, whisking constantly until all the ingredients are completely dissolved. It is important not to let the mixture boil to maintain the proper texture.

Once the coconut milk and cocoa mixture is homogeneous, we add the crushed hazelnuts and a pinch of salt. We continue stirring for a few minutes so that the flavor of the hazelnuts infuses well into the mixture. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.

When the mixture is cold, pour it into the ice cream maker and follow the manufacturer’s instructions. If we do not have an ice cream machine, we can pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container and stir every 30 minutes for about 3-4 hours to prevent the formation of ice crystals and achieve a creamy texture. We recommend doing it with an electric mixer to make the process easier.

The result will be a lactose-free ice cream with a rich, smooth texture and a deep chocolate flavor complemented by the toasted notes of hazelnuts. This chocolate and hazelnut ice cream can be served alone or accompanied by fresh fruits for an extra touch of freshness. Enjoy this delicious lactose-free luxury experience.

To prepare this recipe, you will need the following ingredients: fresh mango pulp, coconut milk and a touch of lemon. The combination of these tropical flavors creates a dessert that is both creamy and invigorating.

Start by peeling and cutting two ripe mangoes into small pieces. Place the mango pieces in a blender along with 400 ml of coconut milk and the juice of half a lemon. Mix the ingredients until you obtain a smooth and homogeneous mixture. If you prefer a sweeter ice cream, you can add a tablespoon of honey or coconut sugar to taste. Make sure to chop and beat the ingredients well, I recommend using a blender like this one, this way you make sure the ice cream is smoother:

Once the mixture is ready, pour it into an ice cream maker and follow the manufacturer’s instructions. If you don’t have an ice cream maker, you can also use the manual method. Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container and place it in the freezer. Stir the mixture every 30 minutes for the first two hours to prevent ice crystals from forming and ensure a smooth texture.

The mango and coconut ice cream should be ready to enjoy after about four hours in the freezer. To serve, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for a few minutes to make it easier to scoop. Garnish each serving with fresh mango chunks or toasted coconut flakes to add an extra touch of flavor and texture.

Lactose Free Recipes 4: Raspberry and Mint Ice Cream

Raspberry and mint lactose-free ice cream is a refreshing and sophisticated option, ideal for those looking to enjoy a lactose-free dessert without sacrificing quality. For this recipe, we will use high quality ingredients such as:

-oat milk,

-fresh raspberries,

-mint leaves

We start by macerating the raspberries. In a bowl, mix 200 grams of fresh raspberries with two tablespoons of sugar and let it rest for 30 minutes. This process will allow the raspberries to release their natural juices, intensifying their flavor in the ice cream.

While the raspberries macerate, we prepare the mint infusion. Heat 500 ml of oat milk over low heat until it starts to boil. Remove from the heat and add a generous handful of fresh mint leaves, letting it rest for 15 minutes so that the milk absorbs the mint flavor. Afterwards, we strain the milk to eliminate the mint leaves, obtaining an aromatic infusion.

In a blender, we combine the mint infusion with the macerated raspberries and add 100 grams of sugar. We beat until we obtain a homogeneous mixture. If a finer texture is desired, the mixture can be strained to remove the raspberry seeds.

Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and follow the manufacturer’s instructions. If we do not have a machine, we can place the mixture in a freezer-safe container, stirring every 30 minutes for 4 hours to prevent the formation of ice crystals and ensure a smooth texture. Here are the special containers to preserve ice cream:

Finally, we serve the raspberry and mint ice cream in elegant glasses, decorating it with some fresh raspberries and mint leaves. This lactose-free ice cream is perfect for any occasion, providing a luxurious experience and a refreshing taste.
