Ingredients

• 2 cups Heavy Cream
• 1 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
• 1 cup Black Sesame Seeds
• 0.75 cup Erythritol Sweetener
• 4 large Egg Yolks
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

Begin by toasting the black sesame seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat. Stir occasionally until they are fragrant and slightly darker, about 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat and let them cool completely.

Step 2

Once cooled, grind the toasted sesame seeds in a blender or food processor until they form a coarse powder or paste.

Step 3

In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream and unsweetened almond milk. Heat the mixture over medium heat until it's hot, but not boiling.

Step 4

Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, erythritol sweetener, and salt until the mixture is pale and thick.

Step 5

Gradually add a small amount of the hot cream mixture into the egg yolks, whisking constantly to temper the yolks.

Step 6

Slowly add the tempered yolks into the remaining cream mixture in the saucepan, stirring constantly.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to low and cook the mixture while stirring with a wooden spoon until it thickens and coats the back of the spoon, about 5-7 minutes. Ensure it does not boil.

Step 8

Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the ground black sesame seeds and vanilla extract.

Step 9

Pour the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl, discarding any solid bits.

Step 10

Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate until completely cold, preferably overnight.

Step 11

Once chilled, churn the mixture in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Step 12

Transfer the churned ice cream to a lidded container and freeze for at least 2 hours or until firm.

Step 13

Serve chilled, and enjoy your keto-friendly black sesame ice cream!
