Make sure the bowl of your ice cream maker is frozen for at least 24 hours in advance.

In a mixing bowl, combine 1 and 1/2 cups of almond milk or water with 3/4 cup of almond butter.

Blend until totally smooth to create a creamy almond milk mixture.

Add in 1/3 cup of maple syrup, 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the mixture.

Blend all ingredients together until smooth.

Remove the bowl from the freezer and pour the almond milk mixture into the frozen bowl of the ice cream maker.

Process the mixture in the ice cream maker for 30 to 35 minutes until it has a thick and creamy texture.

If you don't have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into an airtight container and freeze overnight, stirring every hour to improve texture.

Once processed, serve the ice cream immediately for a soft serve consistency or transfer to an airtight container and freeze for a firmer texture.
