Vegan Summer Desserts

Vegan Summer Desserts
Vegan doesn't have to be boring! I love summer and I love desserts so I wanted to help everyone with some great summer vegan desserts!
  • Grilled fruit is one of the best options! I love grilled pineapple or grilled peaches in the summer!
  • Frozen fruit sorbet
  • Frozen vegan ice cream. One of my favorite things is to freeze bananas so that you can use them for desserts or smoothies. Take 1 frozen banana, 1 cup almond milk, 1 cup soaked cashews, 1 cup water, 2/3 cup of agave nectar, 1/2 cup cocoa powder, pinch of salt, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix all ingredients together until smooth and then add them to your ice cream machine! Yummy!
  • Vegan Key Lime Cheesecake is also a great favorite! Vegan graham cracker crust, 1 1/2 cups of firm tofu, 1 cup soy cream cheese, 1 cup sugar, 2 Tablespoon of key lime juice,1/2 cup coconut milk, and 3 tablespoons of arrowroot. First heat the arrowroot with the coconut milk until it is a thick consistency and then add the rest of the ingredients and blend until it is smooth. Refrigerate for 10 hours or freeze for a free and then top with slices of limes and vegan whip cream!
  • Vegan Shakes! Use your vegan ice creams that you have and add some vanilla or chocolate flavored almond milk and blend until smooth!  
These are just some ideas for your vegan summer! What are some of your favorite summer vegan treats?
This is for a good cause!
