Keto Vegan Mocha Ice Cream

The final result is a decadently rich treat that is sure to fool your tastebuds without the use of dairy.
How To Make Keto Mocha Coconut Milk Ice Cream
With virtually zero effort and no special equipment, you can indulge in a rich, creamy mocha-flavored ice cream that also happens to be dairy-free and keto-friendly.
To make this no-churn low carb coconut milk ice cream, you’ll need either a blender to combine all the ingredients or use an electric mixer. Personally, I recommend a blender since it’s more effective in creating a smooth creamy texture.
Once fully combined, you’ll pour the mixture into two freezer-safe rectangle pans and freeze till solid, about 2 hours. Since this recipe uses no-artificial stabilizers or additives, the ice cream will freeze firmer than say, traditional ice cream.
To combat this, just allow the frozen ice cream to sit on the counter for a few minutes before serving so that it has a scoopable consistency.
For an even creamier option, you can stir the ice cream every 30 minutes with a fork to break up any ice from forming as the coconut milk freezes.
Then just serve as soon as it’s frozen to your liking. I made this a mocha-flavored frozen treat by using both cocoa powder and instant coffee. However, you could just make this a keto chocolate coconut milk recipe by leaving out the instant coffee.
In fact, if you leave out the cocoa powder and instant coffee and replace it with a teaspoon of vanilla extract, you could have a vanilla keto ice cream that is also scrumptiously delicious.
And would pair beautifully with our keto cakes, keto pies, or cookies! The following are the ingredients needed. Note the full printable recipe card is at the bottom of the page.

Best Sugar Substitute For Keto Vegan Mocha Ice Cream
As far as choosing your sweetener, my top choice is a monk fruit/erythritol blend. My personal favorite is Lakanto’s brand. But you can also use Swerve an erythritol sugar substitute.
Would you like to save this?
You could also use the stevia and erythritol-based brand Pyure for this ice cream. However, if using Pyure you will want to use half the amount called for in this recipe since it’s a much sweeter choice.
Lastly, if you can’t easily find a more natural sugar substitute, you can also use Splenda or a generic brand of the same. It will work with great success. I know not everyone would agree with me here and I respect that, but in my book, it’s still better than regular sugar.

Join Our Jesus And Keto Movement
Randy and I came to the keto diet looking at it from a Christian perspective. As believers, we live our lives supported by God’s grace.
So when the Holy Spirit led us to combine our Christian faith and the keto diet, we did so in hopes of finding lasting transformation.
To say we needed God’s intervention is putting it mildly. When we followed the Holy Spirit’s prompting to we got on the path to real transformation.
Knowing firsthand the benefits of this decision we have created a closed Christian group that is using the keto diet to transform their lives. We invite you to join our Private Facebook Group and see if it’s not the key you have been missing.

I just wanted to share, that I followed the recipe exactly and loved it. I experimented and put half the batch in a loaf pan, and the other half into popsicle molds. The consistency was perfect - and made for fancy mocha fudgecicles. Yum! Thank you for this simple but delicious recipe. It will be definitely be used a lot in our house over summer.

Hilda Solares

On average there are about 13.5 ounces in a coconut milk can. If there is a little more say 14 ounces that works fine too.

Is there any reason I can’t halve the recipe? I only have one glass rectangular pan. I have a metal one too but I don’t want to make it in metal. Thanks.

Fabulous!
I accidentally doubled the coffee as I was cutting the recipe in fourths. Added soaked, dried and diced up almonds, Lilys chocolate chips, and vodka (to cut the icing). Super delicious!!!!
