This no-nonsense, healthy carnivore ice cream is proof that simplicity and indulgence go hand in hand. With just raw or heavy cream as the base, you get all the creamy decadence without any of the chemical garbage in store-bought options. No gums, no emulsifiers, no seed oils—just nourishing fat whipped into frozen perfection.
Whether you kept it pure or added variations like cinnamon collagen, maple vanilla, or electrolyte powder, the magic of this recipe is in its flexibility. You want protein? Add egg yolks or powder. You want sweet? Try a dash of maple syrup or stevia. You want crunch? Bacon or cacao nibs seal the deal.
You don’t need a machine, a long list of ingredients, or hours of prep. Just a whisk, a bowl, and a freezer. This is a treat you can feel great about—deeply satisfying, metabolically sound, and adaptable to your macros and taste preferences.
This is more than dessert. It’s a reclaiming of food freedom. A way to enjoy indulgence without poisoning your body. It’s a declaration that healthy carnivore ice cream isn’t an oxymoron—it’s the new gold standard.
Keep this in your rotation. Share it with others. And every time you take a bite, remember: clean eating doesn’t mean boring eating. It means eating smarter—and more deliciously—than ever.
