could you use yacon powder?
we all have our preferences…so glad at least your kids liked it!!
kids tell it like it is, they are soooo awesome
when i tasted this new flavor, i just loved it!
never had it before, and it’s so caramel like…yum
thanks for sharing!!
for some reason, the whole dried and powder don’t taste the same as they syrup. the syrup is molasses-like, super good. haven’t tried to make with powder, but i’d stick with syrup.
yup! i worked many years to get this recipe to work like this!! enjoy it!!!
oh, i’m so sorry, not sure what i’d recommend instead
wish i was of more help

no taro yet…but that sounds really good!!
ani
i haven’t seen it fresh just dried
ani
nothing, remember you are perfect the way you are.
love yourself, forgive yourself

tamarind would be interesting indeed
that sounds good!
yacon syrup is like agave, won’t dry well in dehydrator
i’d just use blended
ani

I bought yacon syrup and it tastes good
OH MY GOODNESS. I absolutely must try this. I’m so excited
That looks fantastic. I hope I can find the ingredients here.
I found you really need a good blender to do this – my blender didn’t really work that great.
I went and bought lucuma specially when I heard about this! Is it okay to use agave if I can’t get hold of yacon? And how long will it last in the freezer?
gwenhwyfar187 – yes, feel free to use agave instead of yacon syrup. same proportions. will keep as long as any other traditional ice cream, say a month or more in freezer.
shockthesky – it helps to first grind your nuts in to a powder, then place in your blender when using less powerful blenders.
Lúcuma isn’t from de Andes of Perú? In fact in my country, Peru, Lúcuma Ice cream is very popular, probably the best flavors of all. Thanks for sharing.
This response was so encouraging to me. I am also trying to change to a raw food lifestyle. I fell off of the wagon today though. Your response made me feel better. Thanks.
Hi Ani! I can’t get lucuma, agave or yacon where I am. Do you have any other recipes for ice cream?
Ani, I love your videos. I use lucuma myself. In this video you say it is a root plant, which it is not (maybe you thinking about yacon?). Lucuma is a highland sapote species (pouteria obovata), very closely related to mamey and canistel. Lucuma naturally has very dry flesh, and so traditionally it is dried.
sorry for geeking out- pomology (study of fruits) is my profession., I grow all sorts of fruits. I love what you do here, yours are some of the best raw recipes out there!
abyssquick-thanks for the correction
i must be misinformed!
will look into this more
thanks

Hi Ani~ My neice has a nut allergy. Any suggestions for cashew substitution? Thanks!
I saved this one. I would like to know where to get Lucuma.
This looks fantastic. I have to watch my natural sugar intake.
