Ingredients:
- 2 cups canned coconut milk
- 1/3 cup erythritol,
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste
- optional ingredients for desired flavor
Instruction:
- 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.View Nutrition Facts

FAQ
What is the best sugar substitute for homemade ice cream?
Allulose is hands down the best sweetener for sugar-free ice cream. It is not a sugar alcohol, but a rare sugar that is not metabolized, making it zero carb. It does not recrystallize, keeping the ice cream lovely and soft. Sugar alcohols such as erythritol can be used, but need to be powdered.
What is keto ice cream made of?
What is keto ice cream? Keto ice cream is ice cream that’s been sweetened with low- or no-calorie, low-carb sweeteners, like stevia, monk fruit, and sugar alcohols, such as erythritol and/or xylitol, rather than regular sugar.
What makes keto ice cream different from regular ice cream?
Regular ice cream gets most of its carbs from sugar. Keto ice cream has a much lower carb count. It achieves this by replacing sugar with a low-carb sweetener.
Why does keto ice cream have so many carbs?
less milk: It’s in the name: cream. Ice cream is typically made with milk and cream, which is a problem for keto dieters because milk is high in carbs. Because of this, keto ice cream can’t use milk in large quantities. Instead, you’ll see more water in the ingredients, which is obviously lower in carbs.
