Zutaten

• 3 tbsp Butter
• 4 Cups Heavy Cream
• 3/4 Cup Powdered Erythritol
• 1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
• 1/4 Cup MCT Oil

Anleitungen

• 1. Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat, then add half of the

  heavy cream and powdered erythritol.

  2. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer for 30-45 minutes, stirring

  occasionally until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of the

  spoon.

  3. Pour into a large bowl and allow to cool to room temperature. Stir in the

  vanilla extract and MCT oil.

  4. Meanwhile, beat the remaining 2 cups of heavy cream using a hand mixer

  for about 2-3 minutes, until stiff peaks form.

  5. Carefully fold the beaten heavy cream into the sweet mixture in the bowl.

  Transfer the mixture to a freezer container (like a 9×5″ loaf pan) and

  smooth the top with a spatula. (If you want to add mix-ins, gently stir them

  in at this step, and also sprinkle some on top.) Line the surface with a

  piece of parchment or wax paper to keep ice crystals from forming. (You

  can use an ice cream maker if you have one.)

  6. Freeze for 5-6 hours, until firm. For a smoother, creamier texture, stir the

  ice cream a few times throughout the freezing process, then return to the

  freezer. (Ice cream will get hard in the freezer after longer periods. Let it

  soften slightly on the counter for a few minutes before serving, and use a

  wet ice cream scoop to serve.)

Ready-Made Low Carb Keto Ice Cream

If you are following the intermittent fasting keto movement, the following tasty ice cream treats are an excellent way to break your fast and introduce a bit of nutrition to your body.

Halo Top Low Carb Chocolate Ice Cream

Perhaps the most popular ice cream for keto you can buy is the Halo Top Low Cal Ice Cream in a variety of flavors. It has the lowest reported net carbs of any low calorie ice cream on the market at just 4g net carbs per serving.

It is also the best value for a keto ice cream, so you won't break the bank on this dessert treat. Here's the nutritional information to review, and note the non carb sweetener is using erythritol, the healthy choice for keto.

Halo Top comes in a wide variety of flavors as well.

Halo reports 4g net carbs per serving, the lowest of the commercial ice cream products.

Rebel Low Carb Chocolate Ice Cream

Another recommended ready-made ketosis friendly ice cream that fits keto is the Rebel Chocolate 6g Ice Cream with just 6 g net carbs per serving.

The Rebel chocolate ice cream keeps the carbs low per serving to preserve your diet.

While the recipe above provides zero carbs, this ice cream has just 6 g net carbs, among the best of widely available ice cream brands.

Make note that the serving size is 4 ounces and provides 6 g net carbs. The label above indicates they are using distilled glucose as non carb sweeteners to get the low carb count (a good thing). Still, the label indicates 7g non carb sweeteners and 3 g fiber, so you might think there's just 1 g net carbs here, but they report 6 grams carbs.
