KETO 2.0 PLUS STRAWBERRY ICE CREAM :
Delicious strawberry ice cream has always been one of my favorite sweet treats, so imagine finding I have the ability to use real strawberries and just cream and stevia to replace my forbidden weakness with a healthy and just as good tasting replacement.
Strawberry Ice Cream was what I made at home the day before I discovered Breyer’s Ice Cream and switched from making my own to buying Breyer’s.
When I looked at the label and realized Breyer’s used the same ingredients I used, not the massive amount of fake ingredients most companies use, I was sold on Breyers for many years.
Now I have a guilt free version and am working on different flavors. As I develop more and more I will get them up on this site,
Keto Strawberry Ice Cream
Ingredients
- 3 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 3 cups Heavy cream divided into 2 cups and 1 cup
- 1/3 cup Besti Powdered Monk Fruit Allulose Blend
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk or unsweetened coconut milk beverage
- 1/4 cup ChocZero Strawberry Jam Preserves
- 8 oz Strawberries hulled
Instructions
- Melt the butter in a large saute pan or skillet (not a saucepan!) over medium heat.
- Add powdered Besti and 2 cups (473 ml) of heavy cream. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Simmer for 30-45 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is thick (like condensed milk), coats the back of a spoon and volume is reduced by half. It will also pull away from the pan as you tilt it. (This will go faster if you use a larger pan.)
- Pour the condensed milk into a large blender and allow to cool to room temperature. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Add the almond milk, remaining heavy cream, and ChocZero strawberry jam. Puree until smooth. Add the strawberries. Pulse a few times, until mostly smooth but some very small strawberry pieces remain. (Or you can puree completely if you prefer.)
- Refrigerate the mixture for at least 4 hours or overnight. (You can skip this step if you really want to, but the texture will be better if you chill it.)
- Transfer the mixture to your ice cream maker and churn according to manufacturer’s instructions, or until the ice cream is the consistency of soft serve. (Mine takes about 20-25 minutes.)
- Enjoy immediately, or for firmer, scoopable ice cream, transfer to a freezer container and freeze for 2-4 hours, until firm.
