Peanut Butter Frozen Yogurt
Ingredients
- 3 cups plain soy yoghurt
- ½ cup date paste
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- ½ cup smooth peanut butter
- ½ tsp unrefined salt
- ½ cup peanuts, chopped
Method
Line a large strainer or a colander with cheesecloth and fill with soy yoghurt. Wrap the edges of the cheesecloth over the yoghurt until fully covered and place the strainer or colander over a pot deep enough to catch the liquid that drains out. Prevent the yoghurt from sitting in the liquid. Tightly cover the pot with a stretchy silicone cover or parchment paper secured with a string and allow to sit in the refrigerator for a minimum of 8 hours.
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the strained yoghurt, date paste, vanilla extract, peanut butter and salt. Freeze the mixture in an ice-cream machine, based on the manufacturer’s instructions. In the final 5 minutes of freezing, add the chopped peanuts. For a soft-serve consistency, serve immediately after freezing. For a firmer consistency, more like a standard ice cream, pack into an airtight container and allow to chill in the freezer for at least 4 hours.
