Ben & Jerry’s has launched a new delicious non-dairy recipe made from oat milk for its vegan lineup. The smooth, decadent oat-based formula is set to be the brand’s greatest recipe yet.
According to the company’s statement, the oat base will replace its nearly 20 existing non-dairy flavours in pints and scoop shops by Spring 2024.
The Goodness in Oat
Ben & Jerry’s current non-dairy products use almond milk or sunflower butter because they work well with specific flavour chunks and swirls.
Present favourites like Lights! Caramel! Action! and Cherry Garcia use almond milk, while flavours like Mint Chocolate Cookie use sunflower butter.
After years of testing for better taste and texture, Ben & Jerry’s Flavour Gurus discovered one recipe to make a creamy base perfect for all non-dairy flavours, which is from oats.
The oat milk recipe makes for a creamier, more indulgent texture, allowing flavours like chocolate, caramel, mint, and vanilla to standout.
Ben & Jerry’s Flavour Guru Colleen Rossell said, “With this new recipe, Ben & Jerry’s fans can expect more: more flavour, more creamy texture and more dessert euphoria with the same signature chunks and swirls. This new recipe is so good, it’s even loved by our most discerning dairy fans who are used to eating ice cream.”
Moreover, Ben & Jerry’s new recipe can cater to people with allergies. Oat milk reduces nut allergens, making Ben & Jerry’s non-dairy flavour more inclusive for those with dietary sensitivities.
New Strawberry Cheezecake Non-Dairy
Last week, Ben & Jerry’s released the non-diary version of the crowd favourite, Strawberry Cheezecake with the new plant-based oat milk recipe.
The flavour is ‘jam-packed with strawberry cheesecake-greatness & a fantastic graham-cracker swirl.’
The newly released berry-licious non-dairy flavour was also created a buzz online with its mouth-watering visual.
Ben & Jerry’s oat-based Strawberry Cheezecake and other non-dairy ice cream flavours are now available in stores and online.
