Hot Cross Bun Nice Cream

PREPARATION TIME

15 minutes

STEP 1:

Soak the cashews in filtered water for a few hours or overnight.

STEP 2:

Drain the water and then blend together the soaked cashews, vanilla, maple, orange juice and salt. Add some extra water or almond milk if it’s not enough liquid - it should blend into a super smooth cream. 

STEP 3:

Set aside a bit of the cashew cream for topping (about 4 tbsp). Add the spices, frozen banana and the Cinnamon Plant Based Protein Mix and blend until smooth and creamy.

STEP 4:

Pour the nice cream into a freezer safe container and freeze for 2-3 hours or until it’s hard enough to scoop. Top off with the leftover cashew cream, toasted nuts, dried blueberries, sultanas and/or coconut flakes. ⠀
