I have waited a year to share this recipe with you. Why, you ask?

Well, I started playing around with this recipe last year but after doing my trials last season I didn’t lock it down until this years fig’s came around again.

I didn’t get back to the grocery store to pick up more fresh figs again before they went out of season last year, so be aware that fresh figs are not like bananas (always available). Figs are only in season from late June through early fall.

Instead of doing a few more trials with dried figs, I decided to just wait another year.

My First Taste Of Fresh Figs

The first time I tried a fresh fig was in Italy. At that time I didn’t realize green figs even existed and at home I had only ever seen dried figs in the grocery store. So I was super excited when we came home and I found fresh figs available.

Thoughts On Ice Cream Makers

I’m not a huge fan of excess.

In this case I’m talking about an ice cream maker.

I went a long time not owning one because I don’t think it’s necessary and I don’t like having extra equipment in my kitchen, taking up space, that I don’t use on a regular basis. So if you’re curious how I got mine, the short little story of my ice cream maker lives over here.

If you don’t have access to an ice cream maker you can easily serve this as a Paleo smoothie instead of ice cream, if you stop after step 1 below.

Dairy Free Dessert

This Paleo ice cream is a seasonal treat so when you see those black (or green!) fresh figs at the grocery store or farmer’s market, pick some up and whip up this dairy-free vegan recipe.

Fig Paleo Ice Cream

Yield: 3-4 Servings

Ingredients

  • 6 Medjool dates, pitted
  • 1lb (~11) fresh black figs
  • 1 can full fat coconut milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • pinch of coarse ground sea salt
  • pinch of cinnamon

Directions

  1. Add all ingredients to a blender and combine until dates are chopped finely and blended well.
  2. Follow the directions on your ice cream maker and process for 15-20 minutes or until the ice cream stops rotating. (Check the resources page for the ice cream maker I recommend.)
  3. Transfer mixture to a freezer-safe dish (I used two of three of my Wilton mini loaf pans). Cover with foil or a lid and freeze for 1-2 hours until firm.
  4. Scoop servings into a bowl and serve.
  5. Keep any leftovers, covered, in the freezer. After keeping it frozen for several days, remove the dish from the freezer and allow to sit out for 20-30 minutes before scooping and serving.
  6. Enjoy! :)
