carnivore ice cream
Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Chilling Time: 4 hours
Total Time: 4 hours 10 minutes
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs, separated
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, if you are strictly following the carnivore diet, omit this)
- 2 tablespoons erythritol or other low-carb sweetener (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Ingredients:
- Separate the egg yolks from the whites. Place the yolks in one bowl and the whites in another.
- Whip the Cream:
- In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until it forms stiff peaks. This will take about 3-5 minutes with an electric mixer on high speed.
- Mix Egg Yolks:
- In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks together with the melted butter and vanilla extract (if using) until well combined.
- Combine Mixtures:
- Gently fold the egg yolk mixture into the whipped cream until fully incorporated.
- Sweeten (Optional):
- If you prefer a sweeter ice cream, you can add erythritol or another low-carb sweetener to the mixture at this point. Gently fold it in until evenly distributed.
- Whip Egg Whites:
- In the bowl with the egg whites, whip them until they form stiff peaks.
- Fold Egg Whites:
- Carefully fold the whipped egg whites into the cream mixture, being gentle to maintain the airy texture.
- Freeze:
- Transfer the mixture to a freezer-safe container. Smooth the top with a spatula, then cover with a lid or plastic wrap.
- Freeze for at least 4 hours or until the ice cream is firm.
- Serve:
- Scoop the ice cream into bowls and enjoy!
