Description

Creamy keto mason jar ice cream delivers pure indulgence without guilt. Cool summer treats meet low-carb magic, promising smooth satisfaction for dessert enthusiasts seeking delicious alternatives to traditional sugar-laden sweets.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 240 milliliters (1 cup) heavy cream (double cream)

Sweeteners:

  • 1.5 tablespoons powdered monk fruit allulose blend

Flavor Enhancers:

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch sea salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare a wide-mouth mason jar by thoroughly cleaning and drying it to ensure a pristine environment for creating your homemade ice cream.
  2. Measure and pour the heavy cream into the jar, ensuring no spillage occurs during the process.
  3. Add the selected sweetener, carefully measuring to achieve the desired level of sweetness without overwhelming the delicate cream base.
  4. Incorporate the vanilla extract, which will infuse a rich, aromatic flavor throughout the mixture.
  5. Sprinkle a small pinch of sea salt to enhance and balance the overall taste profile of the ice cream.
  6. Secure the jar lid tightly, making sure it is completely sealed to prevent any potential leakage during the shaking process.
  7. Vigorously shake the jar for approximately 3 minutes, maintaining a consistent rhythm and intensity to promote proper emulsification and volume increase.
  8. Monitor the mixture’s transformation, stopping when it has thickened and expanded to nearly double its original volume, being cautious not to over-shake.
  9. Carefully transfer the jar to the freezer, positioning it in a stable location where it won’t be disturbed.
  10. Allow the mixture to freeze for 4-6 hours, periodically checking its consistency to achieve the perfect soft-to-hard texture.
  11. Remove the jar from the freezer and let it rest at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly, which will improve scoopability and creaminess.
  12. Serve directly from the jar, enjoying the freshly made, homemade ice cream with your preferred toppings or garnishes.

Notes

  • Ice crystals become smoother when the cream starts super cold, straight from the refrigerator’s coldest section.
  • Mason jars with wide mouths create perfect shaking space, preventing splatters and ensuring even mixing during the process.
  • Vigorous shaking transforms liquid cream into creamy dreamy dessert within three magical minutes, stopping before butter formation occurs.
  • Freezer placement matters tremendously – positioning the jar upright allows consistent temperature distribution for perfect texture development.
  • Serving requires patience, letting the frozen treat rest briefly at room temperature helps achieve that ideal scoop-able consistency.
