vegan, sweet, creamy · August 11, 2014

Ocean Cups

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

I’m keeping up the blueberry theme this week without even trying.

This is a recipe I have wanted to make for a long time, ever since I made the Vegan Dirt Cups. But as soon as the idea popped into my head, starfruit was no where to be found. I’m not sure if starfruit has a season (or when it may be), but I finally spotted these yellow gems in the produce section this week and was pretty darn excited!

Sand, blueberries, and starfish! There is a layer of sweet sand, followed by blueberry water, and adorned with a fruity starfish on top. The blueberry water is more blue in name than in actual color. Blueberries quickly become purpleberries once blended, but these cups are beautifully beachy nonetheless.

No-Churn Pistachio Ice Cream💚 A love it or hate No-Churn Pistachio Ice Cream💚 A love it or hate it flavor, but if you love it you will LOVE this recipe! Dairy-free, just 6 ingredients, and creamy as can be thanks to @edwardandsons Let’s Do Organic Heavy Coconut Cream🍨

INGREDIENTS
-1 cups (130g) raw pistachios, shells removed
-2 cans 13.5oz cans @edwardandsons Let’s Do Organic Heavy Coconut Cream
-1/3 cup (105g) maple syrup
-1 tsp vanilla extract
-1 tsp almond extract
-1/2 tsp salt
-Optional: 1/8 tsp spirulina or 1/4 tsp matcha powder for color

INSTRUCTIONS
Shake the coconut cream cans and pour the entire contents into a medium saucepan. Add pistachios, maple syrup, and salt. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and simmer for 15 minutes stirring occasionally. It will thicken slightly and the pistachios will soften. Remove from heat, stir in the extracts, cool 10 minutes. Blend until very smooth.

Pour into a silicone ice cube tray and freeze overnight. The next day, blend the cubes with a splash of coconut cream until creamy. If you don’t have a blender with a tamper, I recommend using a food processor and stopping to scrape down the sides often. You will have a soft-serve consistency at this point.

Transfer to a loaf pan, freeze 30-60 minutes until it is scoop-able but not frozen solid. Then scoop and serve. Keep leftovers in the freezer, covered. To serve from fully frozen, thaw 30-45 minutes until soft enough to scoop.

If you have an ice cream maker: cool the mixture 1-2 hours after blending, then churn for 30-45 minutes

If you have a Ninja Creami: cool the mixture for 30 minutes, then pour into Creami containers and freeze overnight. Then process on the ice cream setting. If it comes out powdery, add a splash of coconut milk and re-spin 1 to 2 times

Copycat KUDOS GRANOLA BARS😋 a.k.a. really yummy Copycat KUDOS GRANOLA BARS😋 a.k.a. really yummy, chewy, easy, chocolate chip, chocolate dipped, granola bars!

INGREDIENTS
-4 cups (120g) crispy rice cereal
-2 cups (160g) quick oats
-2 14oz cans sweetened condensed coconut milk
-1/2 tsp salt
-3/4 cup (120g) mini chocolate chips
-1/2 cup (80g) chocolate chips, melted

Combine cereal, oats, and salt in a large bowl. In a small saucepan, heat the sweetened condensed coconut milk to a simmer. Simmer and whisk until smooth and visibly thickened (8-10 minutes). Pour on top of the dry ingredients and mix until evenly coated. Set aside to cool about 10-15 minutes (IMPORTANT so you don’t melt the chocolate chips!)

Preheat the oven to 250°F. Fold in mini chocolate chips. Transfer mixture to a square baking dish (8×8”) lined with parchment paper, place a piece of wax paper on top, and use your hands or another pan to press in VERY firmly. Bake 1 hour at 250°F. Cool, then chill 4 hours (makes them easier to slice/coat). Lift out of the pan, slice into 10 bars.

Dip the bottom of each bar in melted chocolate, then place on wax paper to set. Drizzle the tops with more melted chocolate. Chill until chocolate is set.

EASY LINZER FLOWERS🌸 Perfect last minute baking EASY LINZER FLOWERS🌸 Perfect last minute baking for a mama you appreciate, or just a springy sweet treat for yourself too. With a raspberry pomegranate filling that is the perfect tart-sweet balance to these buttery cookies❤️

INGREDIENTS
-1/2 cup (113g) dairy-free butter, softened
-1/2 cup (110g) cane sugar
-2 tsps vanilla extract
-1 1/2 cups (180g) gluten-free or all-purpose flour
-3/4 cup (84g) almond flour
-Zest of one lemon
-1/4 tsp salt
-1 jar @stdalfourusa Raspberry & Pomegranate Fruit Spread
-Optional: 1/2 cup white chocolate chips, melted for dipping/drizzling OR powdered sugar for dusting

In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment or using a hand-mixer, beat the softened butter until light and fluffy (about two minutes). Add sugar and vanilla extract, beat again to combine. Place a mesh strainer on top of the bowl and measure out the flours and salt. Sift in all together, then add the lemon zest. Mix on medium speed to form a crumbly dough. 

Gently knead the dough into a ball. Roll out the dough between two sheets of wax paper to about 1/4 inch thickness. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Cut out using a linzer cookie cutter–half should be solid cookies, half should have the center punched out. Carefully transfer cookies to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake 9-10 minutes, until golden brown around the edges. Let them cool 10 minutes on the pan, then transfer to a rack to cool completely. 

Flip over the solid cookies, and place a teaspoon of fruit spread on the center of each. Top with the cut-out cookies. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
