The hands-down most popular request I’ve been getting from readers this past month has been for more keto recipes. But you definitely don’t need to be on a ketogenic diet—or any diet—to enjoy this easy and sugar free ice cream.
You simply stir everything together, and then either churn it in an ice cream maker OR freeze the mixture in ice cube trays (which can be purchased for as little as 2 dollars at most grocery stores or home stores such as Bed Bath Beyond).
Keto Ice Cream Recipe
*If you’d prefer a low fat recipe, I recommend this Banana Ice Cream Recipe.
Total Time: 10m Yield: 4-5 servings
Ingredients
2 cups canned coconut milk
1/3 cup xylitol, erythritol, or sweetener of choice
1/8 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste
optional ingredients for desired flavor
Instructions
Be sure to use full-fat canned coconut milk, not lite or coconutmilk beverage. If desired, you can use the seeds from a vanilla bean instead of the extract. To make the keto ice cream: Stir together the milk, sweetener, salt, and vanilla extract. If you have an ice cream machine, simply churn according to manufacturer’s directions. Or to make it without an ice cream machine, freeze the mixture in ice cube trays, then blend the frozen cubes in a high-speed blender such as a Vitamix OR thaw them enough to then blend in a food processor or regular blender. Eat as-is, or freeze an hour or so for a firmer texture. Due to not having any preservatives or stabilizers, the keto ice cream is best the day it’s made, but you can technically freeze leftovers up to a month and thaw before serving.
