The Secret Ingredients for Creamy Low Carb Ice Cream

Achieving that creamy, soft texture in low-carb ice cream can be tricky, but two secret ingredients make all the difference in this recipe:

Xylitol (or Allulose)

Xylitol is a type of sugar alcohol that prevents liquids from freezing solid, keeping the ice cream soft and scoopable. Unlike other sweeteners, it mimics the behavior of sugar without raising blood sugar levels. Another excellent option is Allulose, a keto-friendly sweetener with similar properties. However, Allulose can be harder to find in some places like the UK.

⚠️ Note: Xylitol is safe for humans but toxic to dogs, so keep it away from pets!

Xanthan Gum

Xanthan gum is a powerhouse ingredient in keto baking. It acts as a stabilizer, preventing the ice cream from turning into an ice block. It gives the ice cream a smooth and creamy texture by binding ingredients and reducing ice crystals. This ingredient is crucial for getting the perfect consistency in keto ice cream sandwiches.

Ingredients

Chocolate Cookie Layer

• Almond Flour
• Cocoa Powder (Dutch-processed cocoa for rich flavor)
• Keto-Friendly Sweetener (like monk fruit extract or erythritol)
• Himalayan or Sea Salt
• Sugar-Free Peanut Butter (peanut oil or coconut oil for texture)

Peanut Butter Ice Cream Layer

• Heavy Whipping Cream (heavy cream for richness)
• Xylitol or Allulose (both are sugar alcohols that keep it soft)
• Sugar-Free Vanilla Extract or Natural Vanilla Flavor
• Xanthan Gum (prevents the dreaded ice block texture)
• Himalayan Salt
• Sugar-Free Peanut Butter

Instructions

Chocolate Cookie Layer

• In a large bowl, mix almond flour, cocoa powder, sweetener, and salt.

• Freeze for 10–15 minutes.

Peanut Butter Ice Cream Layer

Recipe Tips
