  • 50 g coconut milk
  • 50 g vanilla ice-cream optional - use 50g less plant milk if not using or it will be too runny.

  • weigh in the other solid & liquid ingredients except the plant based milk - cinnamon, mapble syrup, vanilla essence, coconut milk whilst the cashews soften.
  • blend for at least a minute and probably longer until it's perfectly smooth. It may be necessary to add a little plant milk to get it sufficiently liquid to blend properly.
  • open blender and add in the ice-cream (if using) and the rest of the plant based milk and blend for another minute.
