Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams Seedless watermelon
- 240 ml Full-fat coconut milk (canned)
- 50 grams Granulated erythritol or monk fruit sweetener
- 15 ml Fresh lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
- 60 ml Unsweetened almond milk
Instructions
Cut the seedless watermelon into small cubes and weigh out 300 grams.
Spread the watermelon cubes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Freeze for 2-3 hours or until fully frozen.
In a blender or food processor, add the frozen watermelon cubes, full-fat coconut milk, granulated erythritol or monk fruit sweetener, lime juice, vanilla extract, and unsweetened almond milk.
Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy. You may need to stop occasionally and scrape down the sides or use a tamper to help blend the mixture.
Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness as needed by adding more sweetener to suit your preference.
Transfer the mixture to a freezer-safe container and smooth the surface with a spatula.
Cover the container with an airtight lid or plastic wrap to prevent ice crystals from forming. Freeze for an additional 1-2 hours to firm up slightly before serving.
Use an ice cream scoop to serve the keto watermelon ice cream into bowls or cups.
Optional: Garnish with a small sprig of mint or a light sprinkle of sugar-free chocolate flakes for extra flavor and presentation.
