Servings: 7 servings (1/2 cup per serving)
Calories: 177kcal

Ingredients

  • 15 oz can full fat coconut milk
  • 1 medium purple sweet potato (1 cup mashed)
  • 1 scoop grass fed vanilla whey protein
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1 vanilla bean seeds scraped from pod
  • Optional: 1 1/2 tbsp whipped cream vodka (not Paleo, but helps keep ice cream from freezing solid)

Instructions

  • Add 1 cup of water to the bottom of an Instant Pot, then add the steamer rack and sweet potato on top.  Turn Instant Pot to high pressure for 20 minutes and manually release the pressure.
  • Remove skin from sweet potato and mash. 
  • Add 1 cup of sweet potato mash to a blender, along with all other ingredients.  Blend for about 1 minute - you want the ice cream to be smooth and to incorporate some air into the mixture for extra creaminess.
  • Freeze for 4-6 hours before serving.
