Hi, Joy! I’m not sure how this recipe would turn out if you just subbed the almond milk for the half & half, but I can say that I have had great success using date syrup in a couple of vegan ice cream recipes. Really dreamy!

Hi
This recipe looks so good. Do you think it will work with almond milk? Or non dairy milk?
Btw your dates are the best I’ve tasted so far.
