Blend
Blend until smooth. Add in any add-ins that are called for in the keto ice cream recipe of your choosing (see below).

How to Store Your Keto Ice Cream
Store your keto ice cream in the freezer. Just make sure to give your ice cream ample time to thaw before enjoying. Thaw time is about 20-90 minutes—I know, a huge range, but depending on how hot or cold the thawing room is, you would need more or less time. Generally speaking, if it’s colder, it’s gonna be closer to 90 minutes, if it’s hotter, it’ll be closer to 20 minutes (but that’s like really hot. Lol.).
Great Tools for the Best Keto Ice Cream
- Keto Honey – a wonderfully thick, sweet and delicious low carb replacement for honey. I love using this keto sweetener in my keto ice cream recipes because it adds a warm, rich sweetness.
- Keto Maple Syrup – a more liquidy sweetener than can be used in just about any keto recipe — cookies, ice cream, smoothies and more. For instances when a recipe calls for a less-thick low carb sweetener.
- Liquid Monkfruit – just a few drops go a long way. I use this sugar free sweetener for a concentrated boost of sweetness in my keto recipes without having to drastically change up a recipe. So sweet and tasty!
- Coconut Milk + Coconut Cream – quintessential keto ingredients to add mouthwatering creaminess to keto ice cream. The perfect balance of creaminess is found in using both in certain low carb ice cream recipes.
- Ice Cream Maker + Food Processor – my go-to ice cream maker for all ice cream recipes: affordable, super to easy to use, and stays like-new throughout rounds and rounds of ice cream making. Food processor: I use this to make everything: nut butters, energy bars, ice cream, etc. I simply love it.
