Keto Ice Cream Sandwiches Recipe: Servings: Makes 6 ice cream sandwiches
Ingredients: For the Cookies:
- 1 1/2 cups almond flour
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1/4 cup granulated keto-friendly sweetener (such as erythritol or monk fruit)
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup melted coconut oil
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Ice Cream Filling:
- 2 cups keto-friendly ice cream (such as vanilla, chocolate, or your favorite flavor)
Instructions: For the Cookies:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, granulated sweetener, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, combine the melted coconut oil, egg, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
- Add the wet mixture to the dry mixture and stir until a dough forms.
- Divide the dough into 12 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball and flatten it to form a cookie shape.
- Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheet and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden around the edges.

- Once the cookies are cooled, scoop about 1/4 cup of keto-friendly ice cream onto the bottom side of one cookie.
- Place another cookie on top of the ice cream, pressing down gently to form a sandwich.
- Repeat the process to create a total of 6 ice cream sandwiches.
- Place the assembled sandwiches in the freezer for at least 2-3 hours, or until the ice cream is firm.
