If you are a fan of pecan pie or all things cinnamon in general, like I am, I think you will love this Paleo Cinnamon Pecan Ice Cream. It is a great alternative to vanilla ice cream paired with pies, cakes, or fresh fruit. One could even be tempted to break out the ice cream machine in the fall or dead of winter for this one.

Ingredients for Cinnamon Pecan Ice Cream
2 cups unsweetened full fat coconut milk
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 pinch of sea salt
1/3 cup chopped pecans
Instructions for Cinnamon Pecan Ice Cream
Pour all ingredients (except for the pecans) into a quart jar, replace lid tightly, and shake until maple syrup is dissolved. I have the kids pass the jar around, taking turns shaking it (if desired).
Pour into a 1 quart or larger electric ice cream freezer and allow ice cream to churn until it starts to stiffen, but is still mixing.
While the ice cream machine is still running, add the 1/3 cup chopped pecans and then freeze until stiff. This should take about 30-40 minutes total, depending on your ice cream freezer. Enjoy!
Tip: This recipe is best when served immediately, or with your favorite homemade toppings. You can also put it in a chilled bowl in the freezer for later, but it won’t be as soft.
