6 guilt-free frozen treats
Keep your cool – and lose the guilt – with Abigail Donnelly’s chilled desserts featuring less sugar, less dairy, less fat and less effort, from a pistachio-tahini sundae to a three-ingredient fruity sorbet sandwich.
1. Refined-sugar free pistachio-tahini date ice cream
This pistachio-tahini date sundae is sugar-free, dairy-free and full of flavour. You'll be returning to this recipe all summer long. If you're not a fan of tahini, use peanut butter instead.

2. No-churn black sesame ice cream
You need just four ingredients to make this ice cream and no specialist equipment. Abi also made an eggless three-ingredient cookie that also contains no refined sugar to go with it. Make a double batch of the cookies and keep in the fridge for a sweet treat.

3. Vegan litchi granita
You don't have to wait until December to make this treat as it's made using canned litchis. Making the granita requires the most effort when making this dessert, and that takes just 5 minutes. Make the granita the day before so it’s easier to flake.
4. Three-ingredient sorbet sandwiches
Why serve sorbet as is when you can make these awesome sorbet sandwiches? They need just 10 minutes of hands-on time and you can customise them with your favourite sorbet flavours.

5. Banana yoghurt soft serve
If you've bought too many bananas, pop a few into the freezer to make this super-easy frozen treat. The soft serve is made using just frozen bananas and almond milk. Abi topped the dessert with chocolate-coated popcorn, but you can serve it with whatever you'd like.

6. Refined-sugar-free pineapple frozen yoghurt
Like the banana soft serve, this recipe is made by blending pineapple with plaindouble-cream yoghurt. To make it even sweeter, Abi tops it with honey and almonds.
