Pre-freeze your ice cream maker’s insulated container. Or if you do not have an ice cream maker, place a baking dish in the freezer. Make your ‘chips’ by combining the coconut oil and carob powder in a shallow dish, and place it in the freezer for about 20 minutes, or until completely frozen.
In a blender or food processor, combine your coconut milk, peppermint extract, mint leaves, and maple syrup. If you want
a greener looking ice cream, add in the fresh baby spinach. Blend until the leaves are well combined and your mixture is
smooth.
Remove your frozen carob mixture from the freezer, and break up the thin, frozen layer into chips with your hands or a fork.
Add chips to ice cream mixture. If using an ice cream maker: pour mixture into ice cream maker and follow the directions for your machine. Serve when ready.
