3 Ingredient Walnut Ice Cream (Vegan, Gluten-free, No Refined Sugar)

When I was in Germany last year, I felt like I was in paradise. It has become soooo vegan friendly, it is such a difference to 10 years ago. I just love it!

Of course, I had to visit various ice cream bars to try some vegan ice creams. One of my favourites was the organic ice cream bar Cortina in Kassel. They had six flavours, I went for chocolate and walnut.

It was quite sweet but utterly delicious! I kept thinking about the walnut flavour. And when I came across my little stash of wild harvested New Zealand walnuts, I decided to try and make my own walnut ice cream. This one being free from refined sugar though.
