Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 14 oz can Full-fat coconut milk
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 0.5 cup Erythritol sweetener
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 0.25 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Xanthan gum
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened shredded coconut
Instructions
Place the can of coconut milk in the refrigerator overnight or for at least 4 hours to allow the cream to harden.
Once the coconut milk is chilled, open the can and scoop out the hardened cream into a mixing bowl, discarding the liquid or saving it for another use.
In the mixing bowl, add the unsweetened almond milk, erythritol sweetener, vanilla extract, salt, and xanthan gum.
Using a whisk or a hand mixer, blend the ingredients until they are well combined and smooth.
Stir in the unsweetened shredded coconut for added texture and flavor.
Transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until the mixture reaches a soft-serve consistency.
If you do not have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow freezer-safe container, cover it with plastic wrap directly on the surface, and freeze. Stir every 30 minutes for about 2-3 hours to prevent ice crystals from forming.
Once churned, transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours or until firm.
Serve the low carb coconut ice cream in bowls or cones, and enjoy!
