6 Eggs

1 Cup Sweetener *

2 cups Cream 

1 cup Almond Milk

1 tsp Vanilla**

• Add Almond milk, whisk.
• Pour into frozen ice cream maker bowl, insert paddle, turn on machine.
• Wait 30 minutes then... YUM!
• Add toppings to your hearts's desire!

 

* Note : If not Keto, then use sugar. Optional:  If using an Erythritol blend,add 1 TBS vodka, which helps in the freezing process and partially eliminates crystallization.   Whatever sweetener you use put in the equivalent sweetness to sugar. For example, allulose would be 1 1/3 cups, where as monkfruit/erythritol blend (Lakanto) would be 1 Cup.

** You can also add 1/2 Tsp (or to taste) of other flavorings: e.g. lemon extract, maple extract, coconut.

Also, You can add other ingredients such as chocolate chips, berries, or nuts during the last five minutes of freezing the ice cream.

Enjoy!

Liam of Early Midlife Crisis Interviews The Hurricane!

 I've had quite a run on TikTok this year--I went from 200 followers to over 1,000 followers in a week, and the last time I looked, I had 33.4k!  People have been really wonderful and open to hearing about my journey with neurofibromatosis type 1.  It has been a joy to "meet" them on my TikTok live shows.

You never know how NF will manifest itself,
but we do know that it affects everyone differently,
and that most of the more serious issues are hidden.

One of the people who has touched my life is Liam Hamer, who reached out and asked me to be on his podcast, Early Midlife Crisis, recorded on Spotify.  Thanks so much Liam!  

He also posted on YouTube. (This show is audio only--the same version as Spotify.)

And here are a few photos showing my journey with NF:

TikTok Live Recipe: #Keto Chocolate Chip Cookies

 

Keto Chocolate Chip Cookies

https://lowcarbinspirations.com/keto-chocolate-chip-cookies-recipe/

Oven: 350F

1/2 cup butter, melted

1/2 cup Swerve Confectioner’s sweetener (we used generic monk fruit blend)

1/4 cup Pyure Organic Bakeable blend sweetener (we used allulose)
2 large eggs, whisked
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups almond flour
1/4 cup coconut flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp xanthan gum
1/2 tsp pink Himalayan salt
1 1/2 cups Lily’s stevia-sweetened dark chocolate chips (one 9 oz bag)
Note: We use two different sweeteners so that you won’t taste any bitterness or oversweetness from just using one.

* In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, Swerve Confectioners Blend and Pyure Keto sweeteners, eggs and vanilla until fully combined.

* In a separate bowl, mix together the flours, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt until combined.

* Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until it’s fully incorporated.

* Using a spatula,  gently fold  Lily’s chocolate chips into the cookie dough until it’s evenly combined.

* Using your hands, roll about a 1-inch ball of cookie dough and place it on a baking sheet that has been lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat.

* Slightly flatten each cookie to form the shape of your cookies.  These cookies will not spread much when baked.

* Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 14 minutes, until golden brown.

* Allow the cookies to cool for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
