Low Carb Creamy Vegan Tahini Ice Cream

This deliciously smooth and creamy low-carb ice cream makes a wonderful plant-based treat. Our low-carb vegan ice cream is prepared with shelled macadamia nuts, coconut cream, low-carb maple-flavored syrup, earthy tahini, and a pinch of salt. The ice cream ingredients are simply blended together and then frozen in a loaf tin until set and scoopable.

What is Tahini?

Tahini is a smooth and thick paste created by blending sesame seeds. Popular in Middle Eastern cuisine, the paste has an earthy taste that complements both sweet and savory dishes. If you are avoiding sesame in your diet or would like an alternative option to tahini, you can substitute it with a smooth almond or peanut butter. Please be sure to adjust your macros to account for any changes made to the original recipe.

Can I Use a Different Sweetener?

We have used a low-carb maple-flavored syrup for this vegan low-carb ice cream recipe. If you wish, you may swap the syrup for your preferred low-carb sweetener. We would recommend using an alternative liquid or powdered sweetener that will blend smoothly into the ice cream. We would not suggest granulated sugar as this will leave a grainy texture in the ice cream.
