Moroccan Frozen Dream

Allergens

None

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups full
• fat coconut milk
• 1 cup almond milk
• 1/4 teaspoon saffron threads
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1/2 cup coconut sugar
• 2 cups frozen mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries)
• 1 tablespoon arrowroot powder
• Pinch of sea salt

Instructions

1. In a small saucepan, combine coconut milk, almond milk, saffron threads, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and coconut sugar over medium heat. Stir until the sugars dissolve and the spices are infused into the milk mixture, about 5 minutes.
2. In a separate bowl, mix frozen berries with arrowroot powder until evenly coated. This will prevent them from turning the entire dessert into a soupy mess.
3. Remove the saucepan from heat and allow it to cool for 10 minutes. Strain the spiced milk mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a large bowl, discarding the solids.
4. Gently fold the cooled spiced milk into the berries until well combined. Pour the mixture into 6 individual dessert bowls and freeze until firm, at least 4 hours or overnight.
5. When ready to serve, garnish with a light dusting of ground cinnamon and a few frozen raspberries.

Chef’s Insight

Infusing saffron into the milk mixture creates an exotic depth of flavor reminiscent of Moroccan spice markets.

Notes

To enhance the creaminess of this dessert, consider using full-fat coconut milk and almond milk.
