Print Recipe

Ingredients

  • 13.5 oz coconut cream or heavy whipping cream for dairy ice cream
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • cup monk fruit and allulose sweetener or sweetener of choice
  • 1 cup blueberries
  • cup unsweetened almond milk or coconut milk for nut-free
  • ½ teaspoon xanthan gum optional

Instructions

  • Finely grate zest from lime and squeeze juice into a medium saucepan.
  • Place the cream layer from the canned coconut cream in a mixing bowl and whip until stiff peaks form.
  • Pour the liquid part of the coconut cream into a saucepan with lemon juice.
  • Stir in sweetener, blueberries, and low-carb milk.
  • Heat to boiling then cook, stirring occasionally, on gentle boil about 4 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and whisk in xanthan gum, if using. Allow to cool a bit, then fold in whipped coconut cream.
  • Place mixture in refrigerator or ice bath until well chilled.
  • Process in ice cream maker according to manufacturer's directions.

Notes

Use a blended sugar substitute. I like to use a powdered blend of monk fruit and allulose.
Churn the cream mixture in an ice cream maker. This is a sugar free churn ice cream. However, it is possible to make ice cream in a food processor. But I haven't tried this recipe using the food processor method.
Don't skimp on fat. Ice cream high in fat has a creamier consistency so you can use more high fat cream and less milk.
Mix in some unsweetened shredded coconut if you want more coconut flavor.
