Ingredients
Ice Creme
- 1 cup tonic herb tea
- 1 cup organic pecans, soaked
- 1/2 cup soaked and spouted black wild rice (soak in spring water for a day, rinsing a couple times)
- 2 large eggs, de-shelled (Vegans: Use a few dashes of non-GMO soy lecithin and a dash of olive oil instead)
- 4 Brazil nuts, soaked
- 1 teaspoon chia seed
- 1 cup tonic herb tea
- *(refer to methods/steps)
- 3 tablespoons Dandy Blend (herbal, gluten-free coffee flavoring powder)
- 2 tablespoons birch xylitol
- 1 tablespoon cold pressed olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon stevia extract powder (KAL and NOW brands have a great non-bitter flavor). Use a dash more to taste.
- Few pinches sea salt
Low-Gly Chocolate Sauce Recipe
- 1/4 cup birch xylitol
- 1/4 cup raw cacao powder
- 3 tablespoons tonic herb tea or spring water
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon raw almond butter
- 1 pinch stevia extract powder
Instructions
Blend on high in a high-speed blender for 45 seconds. Strain through 3 nut mylk bags (1 inside the other to create a 3 layered bag) into a bowl.
Pour back into a clean blender and add the Dandy Blend, birch xylitol, cold pressed olive oil, stevia and salt. Blend well. Pour into a bowl and place in freezer for several hours or pour into an ice cream maker if you have one.
Blend in a blender on medium-low for 5 – 10 minutes or until all the xylitol crystals are dissolved. Pour into jar or bowl and warm in low-temperature oven for a few minutes before serving on ice creme.
Serve in rounded scoops, sprinkle with blue green flakes, vanilla bean powder, and drizzle with warm low-glycemic chocolate sauce.
