*Purple Guilt-Free Icecream

Image
You will not believe the ingredients in this recipe! It is very similar to my 3 Ingredient Pumpkin Ice cream but instead of pumpkin, I have used the sweet and rich texture of purple sweet potatoes. You could definitely use orange yams or even white sweet potatoes too! (I just liked the purple because of the color!) Yield: 1-2 servings You will need: -2 cups cooked and peeled sweet potato -2 cups milk (I used cashew milk. For a richer texture, use 2 cups of full fat coconut milk) -6-10 pitted medjool dates Directions: 1. Place all the ingredients together in a blender and blend until combined 2. Pour the mix in a loaf pan and freeze over night 3. In the morning, break up the frozen mix with a knife and place the chunks in the blender 4. Blend the chunks until a smooth consistency is reached and enjoy!

*3 Ingredient Pumpkin Spice Icecream

An ultimate favorite flavor for me at this time of the year is anything PUMPKIN! This pumpkin ice cream is so unreal and velvety that you will be making it more than once in one week. The simplicity of these 3 ingredients combined is just heavenly! Yield: 1-2 servings You will need: -2 cups pumpkin puree -2 cups full-fat canned coconut milk (any milk could work) -8-12 pitted medjool dates -Optional: cinnamon, pumpkin spice, nutmeg, peanut butter, coconyt sugar, etc. Directions: 1. Place all the ingredients together in a blender and blend until combined 2. Pour the mix in a loaf pan and freeze over night 3. In the morning, break up the frozen mix with a knife and place the chunks in the blender 4. Blend the chunks until a smooth consistency is reached and enjoy!

Simple Oat & Date Cookies

Simplicity at its finest! These cookies can be whipped up in minutes and only using a blender. A great option for back-to-school snacks or to enjoy with a nice cup of Joe. Feel free to add any other fix-is you may be craving and good luck trying to stop yourself from eating it straight from the blender! Yield: 12 cookies You will need: -2 large ripe bananas -1/4 melted coconut oil -1 heaping tablespoon honey (any sweetener) -2 cups oat flour -1/2 tablespoon baking powder -pinch of salt -1 cup pitted dates Directions: 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit 2. Using a blender, blend the first 3 ingresidents until combined 3. Add the next 3 ingredients and pulse/blend until mixed through 4. Pulse in the dates more towards the end to keep some a little chunky and for texture 5. Bake on a lined baking sheet for 15-20 minutes (lightly brown on bottom) and enjoy! 6. Store any leftovers in a sealed container *I flatten mine slightly with the back of a fork before baki
