- Pinch of salt
Candied Maple Pecans
- 1 cup coarsely chopped pecans
- 1 Tbsp coconut oil
- 1/3 cup maple
Instructions
- Combine all of the ice cream ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Strain the batter through a sieve if dates are not fully blended.

- Store in an airtight container and freeze for a minimum of 4 hours.
- Heat a skillet to a medium heat and add the coconut oil and melt.
- Add the maple syrup and let mixture lightly simmer for about two minutes, stirring frequently.

Notes
- The candied pecans in this recipe are optional. They add some great texture and sweetness but not necessary.
