Banting Ice Cream Recipe
Ingredients
- 500ml Coconut Cream (or a tin/s of Coconut Milk*)**
- 50g Cocoa Powder (Unsweetened) or Cacao which is a purer version of Cocoa (both come from the same plant) which is often supplemented with sugar, oil or milk fat, so if you’d rather use Cocoa powder, choose one that has no added supplements.
- 50g Xylitol (or Chocolate/Plain Stevia)
- ½ tsp Vanilla Essence (or Vanilla Extract)
- Pinch of salt (Himalayan Salt)
- Cacao Chips (Optional) – not to be confused with Cocoa.
Preparation
- Mix all ingredients together with a stick blender until smooth (except for the cacao chips)***
- Add the vanilla essence & blend some more
- Pour the mixture into a bowl & place into your freezer and allow to freeze until it has set
- You can allow it to freeze into proper ice cream or remove it sooner and serve as a chocolate mousse – or just remove it from the freezer 30 to 40 minutes before serving to allow it to soften into a mousse.
- Sprinkle the cacao chips over the ice cream
I doubt whether you can get a much more healthy ice cream dessert.
Furthermore, with this option, you don’t have to skip your favorite dessert just because you’re on a low-carb diet.

3 Thoughts On This Banting Ice Cream Recipe
- Using Coconut milk may not make it as creamy as using coconut cream
- If coconut cream or milk isn’t your thing, you can make it with almond milk, rice milk or goats milk, which will keep it dairy free as well as Banting & Paleo friendly
- Using an ice cream machine may make it even more creamy.
