Vegan Vanilla-Pecan-Red Berry Ice Cream Yule Log

Vegan Vanilla-Pecan-Red Berry Ice Cream Yule Log
For: 6 serv.Difficulty: EasyPreparation: 35 minCooking: 20 min

Since we thought you weren't feeling chilly enough, we decided to make you an ice cream Yule log to end your Christmas meal in style. And not just any log: with vanilla, pecans, and red fruits inside. The advantage is that you can keep it in the freezer as long as you want (with your mother-in-law too if you like).

Warning: we used a Yule log mold with an insert!

  • Prepare the vanilla ice cream: In a saucepan, bring the soy milk to a boil with the vanilla bean split in half and scraped. Mix the sugar and cornstarch in a mixing bowl, then pour the milk over while whisking. Put the mixture back into the saucepan, straining through a sieve. Cook the custard over low heat, stirring to thicken it slightly. Set aside in the refrigerator.
  • Once it's completely cold, start churning in your ice cream maker. Crush the pecans (roasted or not) and add them to the ice cream.
  • Prepare the berry ice cream: Blend the frozen berries with the yogurts and sugar to obtain a smooth and creamy ice cream. Pour into a mold and place in the freezer.
  • Prepare the sponge cake: In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and baking powder. Add the plant-based milk and whisk everything together. Finish by adding the applesauce and vinegar. Let it rest for 15 minutes (while you preheat the oven to 392°F).
  • Pour onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes (when it starts to turn golden, it's done ;) ).
  • Line your Yule log mold with parchment paper. Pour in the vanilla ice cream, then place the red fruit insert in the center. Finish with a bit more vanilla ice cream and a sponge cake layer cut to fit the mold.
  • Place in the freezer for at least 3 hours (or even a lifetime ;) ).
  • For the decoration, you do as you please, we used some crushed cookies!
