Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Heavy cream
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 cup Natural peanut butter (no sugar added)
- 0.5 cup Erythritol or monk fruit sweetener
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream, almond milk, and peanut butter.
Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly until the peanut butter is completely incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
Add the erythritol (or monk fruit sweetener), vanilla extract, and salt to the saucepan, continuing to stir until the sweetener is fully dissolved.
Sprinkle the xanthan gum over the surface and whisk vigorously to prevent lumps. Once combined and smooth, remove the mixture from heat.
Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature. You can speed this up by placing it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
Once cooled, pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, typically 25-30 minutes.
Transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours to firm up before serving.
Serve and enjoy your creamy, low-carb peanut butter ice cream!
