How To Make Keto Coffee Ice Cream
Step 1

Step 2
Add the instant espresso, salt, and vanilla extract, then whisk until well combined.
Step 3
Bring the mixture to a simmer while continually stirring.
Step 4
Continue to stir while the heavy cream mixture begins to boil.
Step 5
Whisk together the eggs and Erythritol in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy.
Step 6
Bring another saucepan of water to a boil to make a double boiler. Place the bowl with the egg mixture on top.

Transfer the mixture to the fridge and let it chill for at least 30 minutes. Once chilled, transfer the mixture into a freezer-proof container and place it in the freezer to set.
Step 9
Stir the mixture every hour for the first two hours to achieve a more creamy consistency. After 3 hours, the keto coffee ice cream will be ready to enjoy!
