Delicious Aquafaba Strawberry “Ice Cream” / Mousse Recipe


Looking for a dairy-free, vegan treat that’s both refreshing and easy to make? This Aquafaba Strawberry “Ice Cream” is the perfect solution! Made with simple ingredients and packed with flavor, it's a delightful way to enjoy summer berries. Let’s dive into this creamy, fluffy concoction.


Ingredients

  • Aquafaba: from one 15-oz can of chickpeas (about 4-5 oz)

  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup, or more, to taste

  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice

  • 16 oz or more frozen strawberries


Directions

  1. Beat the Aquafaba: Pour the aquafaba into a bowl. Using your handheld mixer or KitchenAid, beat it on high until stiff peaks form, which should take about 10 minutes. Don’t worry about over-beating; aquafaba is very forgiving!

  2. Process the Strawberries: In your food processor, pulse the frozen strawberries until no large pieces remain. It’s okay if some small bits are still visible; they add texture. Set aside.

  3. Combine Sweeteners: In a small bowl, mix the maple syrup and lemon juice together until well combined.

  4. Mix Aquafaba and Lemon Mixture: Gradually add the lemon juice mixture to the whipped aquafaba, processing until just combined. Taste and add more maple syrup if desired.

  5. Incorporate Strawberries: Gently fold in the processed strawberries until everything is evenly mixed. You want a lovely pink hue throughout.

  6. Serve: Scoop the mixture into bowls and enjoy immediately for a soft-serve texture. If you prefer a firmer “ice cream,” spoon the leftovers into a container and freeze.


Notes

  • For an even more beautiful color, consider adding freeze-dried strawberries, raspberries, or dragon fruit.

  • This recipe makes a generous batch of about 8+ cups, perfect for sharing or storing for later. The leftover “ice cream” can be frozen, but we doubt it will last long!



This Aquafaba Strawberry “Ice Cream” is not only a delightful way to cool down but also a great way to enjoy the natural sweetness of strawberries without any dairy. Perfect for vegans and non-vegans alike, this treat is sure to impress. Give it a try, and indulge in this light, airy dessert that’s both satisfying and guilt-free!
