Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 6 large Medjool dates, pitted
  • 2 tbsp tahini
  • 1.5 cups almond milk (or dairy milk)
  • 1 cup vanilla ice cream (or coconut milk ice cream for vegan)
  • 0.5 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 pinch sea salt

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Soak dates in warm water for 5 minutes if they're not super soft, then drain. Tip: This ensures a smooth texture
  2. Blend all ingredients except ice cream until completely smooth, about 1 minute.
  3. Add ice cream and blend just until incorporated (10-15 seconds). Tip: Over-blending melts the ice cream too much
  4. Pour into chilled glasses and dust with extra cinnamon if desired.
