Keto ice cream is a breeze to make. ????
For this keto raspberry cream cheese ice cream, there are a few key items I’m recommending and here’s why:
Ice Cream Maker: An ice cream maker is a key to making creamy, smooth ice cream.
Keto Sweetener: Because it tastes so close to real sugar, I’ve been on a Swerve kick lately. I actually used the Swerve Confectioners variety in this recipe, because my family says the granulated is a little too grainy. Use your favorite keto sweetener.
Vegetable Glycerin: Especially if you plan on enjoying your ice cream the same day, this ingredient is completely optional. When left in the freezer overnight, sometimes homemade ice cream can become rock solid. Personally, if you take it out to defrost for a bit, I find the ice cream is fine. The cream cheese helps!
Tips for making:
- You can powder your own sweetener. Just measure the amount of sweetener you need and then prior to adding it to your recipe, pulse in a processor or blender.
- You can reduce the amount of keto sweetener used depending on your preference for sweetness.
