Vanilla Keto Ice Cream (Keto, Low Carb)

Well, folks, it’s called: vanilla! If you’ve been enjoying ice cream since the day you were born (don’t tell my mom I told you that), you know that vanilla ice cream is one of the most popular ice cream flavors of all time. Thus, keto vanilla ice cream. YUM!

Today, I’m wonder-infusing the very last keto ice cream recipe of the summer (sad, I know) with my long-time edible friend (uhhhh…) real vanilla beans and pure vanilla extract. Try your hand at making vanilla keto ice cream and tell me what you think!

Simple Ingredients for Keto Vanilla Ice Cream

Fortunately, keto vanilla ice cream is very easy to make, and it calls for just a few simple ingredients:

• Full-fat Coconut Milk
• Coconut Cream
• Raw Cashew Butter – for ultimate creaminess & to break up iciness
• Pure Vanilla & Pure Almond Extract – for a sophisticated aka delicious flavor profile
• Real Vanilla Beans
• Keto Maple Syrup & Low Carb Monkfruit Sweetener

How to Make Vanilla Keto Ice Cream 

Chill – chill the ice cream container that came with your ice cream maker. Here’s the ice cream maker that I use and highly recommend.

Blend – blend all vanilla keto ice cream ingredients together in a food processor: coconut milk, coconut cream, raw cashew butter, vanilla + almond extract, vanilla beans, keto maple syrup and low carb monkfruit sweetener.

Churn – pour your keto vanilla ice cream mixture into the frozen ice cream container and churn. Churn until firm throughout.

Scoop & Enjoy – if you like your vanilla keto ice cream super soft, enjoy immediately. If you want it firm, freeze for a few hours, then scoop and enjoy!

Tools for the Best Vanilla Keto Ice Cream Recipe

• Ice Cream Maker: sturdy, stylish and easy to use! Did I mention, also affordable? I had the older model of this guy about 8 years ago, and it lasted thru so many rounds of ice cream making. It actually didn’t give out, I just had to get rid of it when we moved. So this year and last year, I bought a few more to make ALL the keto ice cream!
• Extra Freezer Bowl: One of the things that annoyed me the most about making homemade ice cream was waiting 12+ hours for the freezer bowl to freeze. So instead of waiting for the 1 bowl to freeze, I bought 2 extra freezer bowls. That way, I can make 3 different ice cream flavors in a row! 😉
• Amazing Ice Cream Scoop: this ice cream scoop is my go-to scooper for all of my photoshoots and, of course, regular times for ice cream! I own three because I love them so much, plus I don’t have to wash the scoop before serving up a round of a different ice cream.
• Essential Ingredients:
  • Full-fat Coconut Milk + Coconut Cream
  • Raw Cashew Butter – make sure to use raw and not roasted. Roasted will leave a very strong cashew flavor in your ice cream–and block out any vanilla flavor. Raw works wonders!
  • Pure Almond Extract
  • Vanilla Bean Pods
  • Keto Maple Syrup + Low Carb Monkfruit Sweetener

4. Cover the food processor and blend until smooth and well mixed. Scrape down the sides of the processor as needed.
5. Pour mixture into ice cream maker. Follow directions for making ice cream according to ice cream maker’s directions.
6. Enjoy immediately if you like super soft ice cream. If you like firmer ice cream, pour into an ice cream container and freeze for 2-4 hours, until firm. Use an ice cream scoop for easier scooping.
7. Vanilla ice cream is best the first day. On Day 2 and forward, set ice cream out at room temperature to thaw for 20-90 minutes, until creamy and scoopable. Enjoy! Storing instructions below.
