Making your own keto ice cream is as easy as 1 2 3. All you need is a mason jar, heavy cream, and sweetener! This keto mason jar ice cream will be fun for the whole family.
So creamy and delicious, you can make any flavor of this ice cream you want! I have strawberry and chocolate featured here because they are my favorite!
The trick to super creamy ice cream is heavy cream, of course. It is super rich and filling! The perfect dessert for dinner option.
For strawberry we add in ground up freeze dried strawberries.
For chocolate we add in cocoa powder.
For vanilla we would add just vanilla extract.
You could also mix in chopped nuts or brownie pieces! Make them keto brownies, of course.

Can you use swerve with this?
jenniferbanz says

Jennifer says
I have made the chocolate "icecream" SEVERAL times now. I only use 2 tbs of sugar substitute. This is FANTASTIC recipe and woth the shaking! I do shake an extra minute. Love, love, love this! Thank you for sharing! I honestly do not leave reviews so that should help you know how good it is!
Debbie Beal says
Just a suggestion but you can use an immersion blender and it will whip the cream in an instant. It will fit inside a quart jar…mine did. I added espresso powder to the chocolate to kick it up a notch.
Amie says

Kathrine Willis says
Hi Jennifer. I've made this chocolate recipe 3 times. First time I put too much cocoa powder in it. Second time I couldn't shake the jar for 5 minutes. Third time is the charm! I have fibromyalgia and MS so shaking the jar caused problems for me. This time I used a mixer for 5 minutes. I tried some it tastes absolutely scrumpdileicious! I'm very happy I found you. I've lost 35 pounds in 7 weeks! Many recipes from you!
Peace and blessings to you and yours.
DeDe says
Kathrine may I ask how you lost 35lbs in 7 weeks?!!! I would be very interested in trying this
Doris says
I made the strawberry it was very good I'm making the chocolate now can't wait to try it.
Christie says
I've made both the strawberry and the chocolate. Both were very good...and I don't like strawberry ice cream. Only problem is they freeze solid if left too long in the freezer but just let it thaw for a bit and it's gtg!!
Gail says
Must it be a mason jar? Can I use any glass jar with a tight fitting lid or a tightly closed plastic container or even a heavy duty zip lock bag?
jenniferbanz says
yes, you can use any jar or zip top bag
Kitty says
I made this using an immersion blender. Didn’t take much time at all until it was thick
jenniferbanz says
Thanks for the tip! That sounds great!
Theresa says
Can you use coconut milk instead of heavy cream?
jenniferbanz says
I haven't tried it but you would probably have to use coconut cream. I think coconut milk is too thin.
Jenni says
Can the recipe be doubled?
Nancy Pipeling Esposito says
I love your recipes.
Cathy says
Hi, thanks so much for all your recipes! Can I make this in a bowl with a lid instead of a mason jar? I don't have any. Thanks xxoo

Yep!
Tia says
I have made this many times and LOVE it! Thank you for ALL the yummy recipes!

How do you get it not to freeze solid?
