You’re going to love this round-up of the best homemade vegan ice cream recipes, including popsicles, sorbet, pies, soft serve and more, all made dairy-free, creamy, and so delicious. From mango to strawberry to peanut butter and chocolate flavors, there’s something for everyone!
With warm weather underway, I’m so excited to share the best vegan ice cream recipes, plus popsicles, soft serve, and sorbet.
With everything from chocolate and strawberry to fancy vegan ice cream desserts, there is literally something for everyone in this homemade ice cream recipe round-up.
Recipe Tips
- Believe it or not, but you don’t even need an ice cream maker to make homemade vegan ice cream. Instead, you can use the freezer method as I’ve detailed in this post on how to make ice cream without an ice cream maker.
- However, if you prefer to use a machine, then the ice cream maker that I use is this Cuisinart frozen yogurt-ice cream model that sells for less than $70 on Amazon.
- In general, you’ll need about 2 cups of liquid to make the base of your ice cream recipe. You can simply use a 15-ounce can of full-fat coconut milk for most recipes.
- But, if you want a lighter version without sacrificing too much in terms of texture and mouthfeel, you can always dilute the coconut milk by mixing it with almond milk or oat milk.
- Feel free to get creative, experiment with different flavors, and enjoy the results. Don’t miss these yummy gluten-free waffle cones either.
Now, onto the recipes!

Hi Carrie – What a fun roundup for summer. I love vegan ice cream since I can’t eat the alternative. PINNED!!! Thank you for including my black raspberry ice cream. My heart is full of gratitude. Hugs, Holly
Wow!!! So difficult to choose from all these decadent frozen delights! I guess my summer indulgence is covered 🙂 Thanks so much for sharing my contribution – 2-Ingredient Strawberry Ice Cream in this fabulous collection! Have a great summer Carrie!
There are so many delicious ideas to choose from. I don’t know where to start! They’re making me drool!
Ice creams and summer are the best combination ever. These looks yumm.
These recipes look great! I’m very picky when it comes to ice cream, but I’ll definitely have to try some of these out!
All these iced desserts look so delicious, but can I sub the banana; as I can’t tolerate them? ?
You can use frozen mango!
Chocolate ice cream is mentioned several times in the list of potential recipe choices. But none of the recipes in the list actually involve chocolate. I’m disappointed. Again. Several of your links don’t go where you’d think they would. (Chocolate Raspberry Vegan Ice Cream goes to Chocolate Peanut butter, no matter what page I start from.)
