Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 0 minutes

Total Time: 4 hours 10 minutes (including chilling time)

Servings: 6

Skill Level: Easy

Ingredients

  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 cup sugar substitute (e.g., stevia or erythritol)
  • 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
  • A pinch of salt
  • Fresh mint leaves and strawberries for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, sugar substitute, vanilla extract, and salt. Whisk until the mixture is well blended and the sugar substitute is dissolved.
  2. Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, usually about 20-25 minutes, until the ice cream reaches a soft-serve consistency.
  3. Transfer the ice cream to an airtight container, smooth the top with a spatula, and cover. Place the container in the freezer for at least 4 hours to firm up.
  4. When ready to serve, scoop the ice cream into a chilled glass bowl and garnish with fresh mint leaves and strawberries if desired.

Helpful Tips

  • Churning: Be sure to follow your ice cream maker’s instructions closely for the best texture.
  • Substitution: You can use any preferred sugar substitute, adjusting the amount to taste if needed.
  • Flavor Varieties: Try adding cocoa powder for a chocolatey version or fresh fruit purees for a fruity twist.
  • Storage: Store the ice cream in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 1 week. Let it thaw for a few minutes at room temperature before scooping.

Pairings

For a perfect summer treat, pair this sugar-free ice cream with a fresh fruit salad or a light, zesty lemon cake. A tall glass of unsweetened iced tea or sparkling water with a slice of lemon would wonderfully complement this refreshing dessert.
