Sugar Free Peppermint Ice Cream Recipe

Directions

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, Lakanto Sweetener, peppermint extract, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Whisk until sweetener is fully dissolved.
2. Cover with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate the mixture for 1-2 hours until it's thoroughly chilled. Chilling helps ensure your ice cream churns to the perfect consistency.
3. Once the mixture is adequately chilled, pour it into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. This typically takes 20-30 minutes.
4. If you don’t have an ice cream maker, prepare a large bowl with 3-4 cups ice and 2 T salt mixed in. Place the bowl of ice cream mix over the ice mixture and using a hand or electric mixer, best on medium high for 7-10 minutes until ice cream comes together and gets creamy.
5. If you crave extra flavor and texture, consider adding chopped Lakanto Peppermint Bark or Lakanto Sugar-Free Chocolate Chips during the last 5 minutes of churning or mixing.
6. After churning or mixing, transfer your ice cream to an airtight container. For a soft-serve consistency, enjoy it immediately. To achieve a firmer texture, place the container in the freezer for at least 4 hours until the ice cream sets completely.
