Easy Keto Vanilla Ice Cream Sandwiches Recipe
This recipe features soft almond flour cookies filled with creamy keto vanilla ice cream. The cookies are sweetened with a low-carb sweetener, making these sandwiches not only delicious but also compliant with keto dietary guidelines. The total process takes about 1 hour and serves 6 sandwiches.
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1/4 cup low-carb sweetener (like erythritol or monk fruit)
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pint keto vanilla ice cream or homemade
- Optional: sugar-free chocolate chips or nuts for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, combine the almond flour, low-carb sweetener, baking powder, and salt.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, cream the softened butter, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until a dough forms.
- Shape Cookies: Scoop out small portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet and press down slightly to flatten.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Let them cool completely on a wire rack.
- Assemble Sandwiches: Once the cookies are cooled, take one cookie, add a scoop of keto vanilla ice cream on top, and place another cookie on top to create a sandwich. Repeat with remaining cookies.
- Freeze: Place the sandwiches back in the freezer for at least 30 minutes to firm up. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the freezer.
