No-Churn Keto Vanilla Ice Cream
Creamy no-churn vanilla ice cream with no sugar and no machine — about 2 g net carbs per scoop.
Serves 6 (about 6 scoops) · Prep 10 min · freeze 5–6 hours
Ingredients
- 400 ml heavy cream
- 60 g cream cheese, softened
- 100 ml unsweetened almond milk
- 70 g powdered allulose or an erythritol blend (no net carbs counted; allulose keeps it softer), 2 tsp vanilla extract, pinch of salt
Method
- Beat the cream cheese with the sweetener, vanilla and salt until smooth.
- Slowly beat in the almond milk.
- In a separate bowl, whip the cream to soft peaks, then fold in the cream cheese mixture.
- Spread in a loaf tin, cover and freeze 5–6 hours.
- Leave 10 minutes at room temperature before scooping.
Tip. Erythritol-only versions freeze rock hard. Allulose or a splash of vodka keeps it scoopable. Fold in a few raspberries or chopped 85% chocolate for variations.
