Keto Creme Fraiche Ice Cream
This creme fraiche ice cream has a beautiful lightness and just the perfect bit of twang to it. A truly refreshing ice cream.
When I came up with this recipe I was looking for a flavour that was delicate enough to enjoy on its own or simple enough to be able to enjoy a topping or two on it.
The ice cream is lusciously soft and creamy. I use vegetable glycerine in my ice creams as it really helps to continue to keep the ice cream soft and creamy even when it isn’t consumed over the first day or two. With just a few teaspoons it makes such a difference.
This is probably one of my favourite ice cream recipes I make. Just because it is so simple and so bloody fabulous.
I hope you enjoy the recipe too

Yummm yum yum!! Thanks for a great, simple and tasty treat!!
What do you do if you don’t have an ice cream maker, I would love to try this.
I have read somewhere else that you freeze the mix and every 4 hours take it out of freezer an beat it.
Just made this today. Couldn’t even wait for it to freeze firm. I just HAD to try it. Absolutely delicious and so easy to make.
What is NaN zest?
I Brenda I have corrected the US conversion. It is lemon zest but there was some kind of glitch in the conversion. Sorry for any inconvenience.
Hi, I would like to try your recipe but I am not sure if you are using the full fat canned coconut milk used for baking after draining off the liquid, or the boxed coconut milk that you can drink. Thanks for your recipe and for sharing with everyone.
Hi Jeanine, thanks for your question. I did create this recipe so long ago and it could use a little bit more information. I did just use the boxed stuff in this recipe.
Thanks for your prompt reply. I am looking forward to trying this out.
