Bulletproof "Get Some" Ice Cream
Ingredients
- 4 whole eggs (pastured, of course)
- 4 yolks (in addition to the whole eggs above)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1 gram vitamin C (ascorbic acid) or 10 drops apple cider vinegar or lime juice
- 100 grams (7 tablespoons) grass-fed butter
- 100 grams (7 tablespoons) coconut oil
- 50 grams (3 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons) XCT oil (important for consistency)
- 80 grams (5½ tablespoons) xylitol or erythritol (or more to taste — you can add up to 160 grams if you want)
- About 100 grams water or ice (just under ½ cup; add less than you think you need, then increase the amount)
Preparation
1. Blend everything except the water/ice in a blender. It takes a while to get the butter blended into perfect creaminess.
2. Add water or ice and blend some more until well-blended. Ideally, you want a yogurt-like consistency for creamy ice cream, or add more water for a firmer, icier texture.
3. Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and turn it on.
