Creamy Paleo Ice Cream in 4 Ingredients
- Ingredient 1: Full-fat coconut milk
- Ingredient 2: Natural, creamy almond butter or try homemade almond butter!
- Ingredient 3: Pure Maple Syrup OR a keto-friendly sweetener
- Ingredient 4: Vanilla or almond extract
How do I make this paleo almond butter ice cream keto?
To make this paleo almond butter ice cream keto, simply swap out the pure maple syrup for one of the low-carb, keto sweeteners below. Since keto is low-carb and high-fat, the rest of the ingredients stay put! Instead of maple syrup, you can use…
- Lakanto Monkfruit Sweetener Drops– Zero glycemic, zero carb, sugar-free, tastes like honey, with no bitter aftertaste (which you can get with stevia). One of my favorites! Keto, Vegan, Low Glycemic, Low Carb, Paleo, Gluten-Free.
- Liquid Stevia Drops– Zero glycemic, zero calories, zero carbs. Just be careful with using more than the amount in the recipe because stevia can leave quite the aftertaste, which can be unpleasant.
- Lakanto Maple Flavored Sugar-Free Syrup– Closest in taste to the pure maple syrup listed in this recipe. Only 1 net carb and 0 grams of sugar per 2 tablespoons. Keto, Vegan, Low Glycemic, Low Carb, Paleo, Gluten-Free, Sugar-Free.
To make this paleo almond butter ice cream a keto ice cream recipe: During Step 1 of this recipe, start with the smaller amount of keto sweetener listed on the recipe. Blend until smooth. Taste the mixture–if it’s not sweet enough, add a few more drops. Sweeten to taste, blend thoroughly and freeze!

Could i use a a keto sugar granules, not in syrup form?
Hi A, I’m not sure that would work since most keto/sugar free granules are made with erythritol, which tends to be difficult to dissolve. It might make the ice cream grainy. Liquid sweetener would work best. Good luck!
Yes more Paleo recipes please!! : ) Also, I’m guessing it wouldn’t work to use almond milk in place of the full fat coconut milk right? Sometimes coconut affects my heart but this ice cream sounds soooo amazing!!
I’ve definitely got more paleo recipes in store! . As for the almond milk: it would definitely cause the ice cream to be less creamy and more icey, so I typically would not recommend it. But if you do try it out, let me know how it goes! 🙂
Yummy combination of flavors! I want to try this at home 🙂
It’s the yummiest! . Thanks Sharon!
