what if we don't have an ice cream machine? will a blender or processor work?

This recipe doesn't call for any vanilla. Is that correct?

Maybe the vanilla flavor comes from the store-bought vanilla almond milk? I'd add vanilla anyway because I like it.

No ice cream maker here. Blended it up, poured into a tub and stuck in the freezer. Pull it our in a few hours & mix then return to freezer. Nice flavor without vanilla

I make vegan ice cream often but have never seen xanthan gum used. Any ideas what it's purpose is? I'm guessing it's a thickener, maybe?
