PREP: 5 minutes
COOK: 30 minutes
CHILL TIME 4 hours
TOTAL: 4 hours 35 minutes
INGREDIENTS
- 3 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 3 cups Heavy cream (divided into 2 cups and 1 cup)

- Add powdered Besti and 2 cups of heavy cream. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Simmer for 30-45 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is thick (like condensed milk), coats the back of a spoon and volume is reduced by half. It will also pull away from the pan as you tilt it. (This will go faster if you use a larger pan.)
- Pour the condensed milk into a large bowl and allow to cool to room temperature. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Whisk the almond milk and remaining heavy cream, until smooth.
- Chill the mixture in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight. (You can skip this step if you really want to, but the texture will be better if you chill it.)

ICE CREAM MAKER INSTRUCTIONS:
- Transfer the mixture to your ice cream maker and churn according to manufacturer’s instructions, or until the ice cream is the consistency of soft serve. Mine takes about 20-25 minutes. (If you want to add mix-ins, add them toward the end of the churning process.)
- Enjoy immediately, or for firmer, scoopable ice cream, transfer to a freezer container and freeze for 2-4 hours, until firm.
NO CHURN INSTRUCTIONS:
- Transfer the mixture to a freezer container and smooth the top with a spatula. Line the surface with a piece of parchment or wax paper to keep ice crystals from forming.
- Freeze for 4-6 hours, until firm. Stir the ice cream during the freezing process, every 30 minutes for the first 2 hours and every 60-90 minutes for 2-3 hours after. (If you want to add mix-ins, gently stir them in after the first hour.
Serving size: 1/2 cup
- This keto ice cream recipe was updated several times, the last time in May 2022 to improve texture.
- If you’d like to lighten up the sugar-free ice cream a bit, you can replace some of the heavy cream in step 4 with coconut milk beverage or almond milk instead. However, don’t replace any of the cream in step 1.
- Using Besti is critical for keeping this keto ice cream recipe soft and scoopable. Most other sweeteners will make it very hard.
