Lemon Coconut Ice Cream

June 20, 2014December 14, 2014 Melissa King 23 Comments

I have been loving homemade ice cream lately. It’s getting close to the 100’s here in Dallas, so I like to be able to enjoy a frozen treat. This lemon coconut ice cream is my latest ice cream recipe. I just love all things lemon and coconut, so I knew this lemon coconut ice cream would be delicious. And it was!

This very ice cream recipe only contains 4 ingredients! This lemon coconut ice cream is vegan, gluten free, dairy free and paleo. It only takes about 20 minutes to make. If you don’t have an ice cream maker, you can make this recipe into popsicles instead. I like these molds.

Lemon Blueberry Cookies. I have been making cookies like crazy lately. That is how these blueberry lemon cookies came about. I have also been combining the flavors of lemon and coconut together quiet often.

After I made my lemon coconut fudge the other day, a reader suggested I do a lemon blueberry cookie. Genius idea! I am so glad I did because these lemon blueberry vegan cookies are so good!

Lemon Blueberry Cookies

While these delicious cookies are not flourless, they are gluten free and vegan. I seriously could not stop eating them! I love the bursts of juicy blueberries I got with every bite. Yum! I hope you enjoy them.

Hands up if you love coconut! People either love it or hate it. Personally, I hated coconut for years, but now I love it. Toasting coconut can add a new level of flavor to anything you are making. These flourless toasted coconut caramel cookies are no exception. If you were a fan of my flourless salted caramel cookies and my flourless chocolate chip cookies, you will love these flourless toasted coconut cookies!

Just like the other flourless cookie recipes, these are a cinch to make. They are also only sweetened with dates! That’s right. No sugar added to these. I hope you enjoy them.

Lemony Coconut Fudge. Coconut and lemon go so well together, don’t they? I am a big fan of the combo if you haven’t noticed already.

I have some coconut lemon crumb bars and lemon tarts already on my blog. This lemon coconut fudge makes a wonderful addition.

This lemony coconut vegan fudge couldn’t be easier to make. Plus, it just melts in your mouth. Hard to make it look sexy in a photo, but I promise if you try it, you will love it!

This coconut lemon fudge is also vegan, gluten free and paleo approved. There is only 2-3 tablespoons of sweetener in the whole batch!

Coconut Strawberry Overnight Oats

Coconut Strawberry Overnight Oats. As you know, I just love my oats. And my favorite way to eat them is in the form of overnight oats.

Overnight oats, or Oats in a Jar, are so easy and you don’t even need to cook them! This coconut strawberry overnight oats is my newest creation.

You can make these with either rolled oats or steel cut oats. I like steel cut oats myself. They will retain a slight crunch that I like.

If you like a smoother oatmeal, feel free to use rolled oats instead. These overnight oats are gluten free and vegan. 🙂 If you are not gluten free, feel free to use regular oats. That is what I do. 🙂
