What is your favorite ice cream flavor? Today I’m sharing with you a highly requested ice cream flavor – Madagascar Vanilla – featuring sliced almonds and chocolate chips! This ice cream recipe is naturally vegan, dairy free, gluten free and can easily be made keto/low carb. This is super easy to make and tastes absolutely delicious!
Here’s how to make it!
Ingredients:
1 14oz can full fat coconut milk
1/4 cup liquid sweetener of choice (maple syrup, honey, or a keto approved liquid sweetener (see notes below)
2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp salt
Optional Mix-Ins:
chocolate chips
sliced or chopped nuts
edible cookie dough
fresh sliced fruit
peanut butter
brownie bites
Instructions:
Measure out all your ingredients.
Blend your coconut milk, sweetener, vanilla extract and salt in a high speed blender or whip in a large bowl with an electric mixer.
Taste your ice cream mixture and add more sweetener or vanilla extract if desired. Add any mix-ins of choice and stir until well combined.
Transfer your mixture to a freezer friendly dish (with a lid) and freeze for 6-8 hours. If you have an ice cream maker, you could transfer the mixture now and use that instead of freezing.
Remove from the freezer after 6+ hours and let it sit out for 5-10 minutes before scooping.
Serve and enjoy! Freeze any leftovers for later.
Notes:
Use a sugar free, liquid sugar replacement to keep it keto (if it’s not a 1-1 replacement, adjust accordingly).
Use sugar free chocolate chips to keep it keto and dairy free chocolate chips to keep it dairy free/vegan!
use a high quality canned coconut milk brand or else the mixture will turn out a bit icy!
