Ingredients:

  • 140g cream cheese.
  • 70g heavy cream
  • 150g almond milk
  • 1 tsp / 5g vanilla extract (not needed if vanilla yoghurt)
  • 50-70g granulated sugar (depending on how sweetened the ‘flavour’ is - for frozen/fresh fruit, 70g, for jam or pie filling, 50g. Can also use allulose for a low-carb version (do not use erthrytol - it can crystalize)
  • 1/4 tsp / 2g xanthan gum
  • flavour : 100g frozen or fresh fruit, 50g caramel, 30g cocoa powder, 80g jam

March 23, 2024: tried with 140g cream cheese, 60g heavy cream, 150g almond milk, 1.5 tsp cinnamon, no yogurt, and 70g allulose/monkfruit brown sugar - it worked very well and had a better texture. Was slightly short on the volume - I’ll try with 10g more heavy cream next time.

Directions:

  1. add all ingredients into the blender. Be sure to sprinkle the xanthan gum so it is less likely to clump
  2. blend on high until well combined (~30s or so)
  3. pour into the Creami pint container - add additional milk/cream if desired to reach the fill line
  4. place on level surface in freezer until frozen, then process in the Creami

Notes:

  • if using frozen fruit, and the fruit is icy, simmer it in a pan until most of the water is boiled off before adding to the ice cream base
  • This did not work with Eurythritol based artifical sweetner, but it worked great with Allulose - I used 70g of an Allulose / Monkfruit blend and it came out great.

50g of 100% chocolate and 80g of raspberry coulis was great
