Ingredients

Scale

Ice Cream Base

  • 1 can (13.5 oz) full-fat coconut milk
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Golden Milk Base: Combine the coconut milk, turmeric, cinnamon, ginger, black pepper, and salt in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir frequently to gently warm the mixture until aromatic and spices are fully incorporated. Avoid boiling.
  2. Sweeten and Flavor: Remove the saucepan from heat and whisk in the maple syrup and vanilla extract to infuse sweetness and balance the spices.
  3. Chill the Mixture: Pour the spiced coconut milk into a bowl, let it cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.
  4. Churn the Ice Cream: Pour the chilled golden milk mixture into an ice cream maker and churn following manufacturer’s instructions, usually 20-30 minutes, until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
  5. Freeze for Texture: Transfer the churned ice cream into a container and freeze for an additional 2-3 hours to firm up for perfect scoopability.

Notes

  • Use full-fat coconut milk for optimal creaminess; light versions can yield icy texture.
  • Freshly ground spices enhance flavor quality.
  • Adjust maple syrup amount to achieve your preferred sweetness level.
  • Chilling the base thoroughly before churning prevents grainy ice cream.
  • Black pepper is essential to activate turmeric’s flavor and health benefits.
  • While an ice cream maker is recommended for best texture, you can freeze and stir periodically if unavailable.
