FAQ
What ice cream can you eat on keto?
Deciding what to eat when doing keto can be difficult, particularly when looking for a sweet indulgence. You might be tempted to reach for sugar-free ice cream when facing limited choices in the freezer aisle.
While no sugar, low-calorie, and dairy-free options are great, they don't always work with a ketogenic diet. You need to take the time to read the label before reaching for the ice cream scoop.
Here are a few things to look out for:
High-fat base ingredient. Your chosen ice cream should list heavy cream as its first or second ingredient. You know it’ll meet the fat target to qualify as keto-friendly and have the delicious creamy texture you crave without relying on high-carb fillers.
Insulin-friendly sweetener. Keto-friendly ice cream will use low-carb sweeteners like stevia and monk fruit or sugar alcohols such as erythritol, xylitol, or maltitol to give their ice cream a rich, delicious flavor and keep your blood sugar from spiking.
Hidden fillers. Because reduced-fat or dairy-free ice cream uses skim milk or coconut milk instead of cream, they need to use fillers like corn, oats, flour, or rice to simulate a creamy texture. These additives can significantly boost the grams of net carbs in an ice cream recipe.
Read the label to see how this — or any — food fits into your lifestyle. Different ice cream flavors will have different macros. You need to be sure it’s providing you with the protein, carbs, fat, and micronutrients you need to stay healthy.
What is the best keto ice cream?
The best keto-friendly ice cream is the one that indulges your craving for a sweet treat while keeping you in ketosis and helping you meet your daily nutritional needs.
Net carbs. Keeping your carb count down is the crux of the keto diet. Look for a low-carb ice cream with 5 grams or less per serving.
Serving size. Is the recommended amount satisying, or will you feel frustrated and come back for more? Consider the serving size. Eating one-half to two-thirds cups of ice cream is usually enough to tame your craving.
Ingredients. The best keto ice cream brands use as many natural ingredients like pure vanilla extract to craft their products as possible. Check the ingredient list to ensure they don’t overly rely on fillers or preservatives that can leave their ice cream tasting more like a chemistry experiment and less like a delicious treat.
But the absolute best keto ice cream is one that comes in the decadent flavor that you crave, like Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, Salted Caramel, or White Chocolate Macadamia Nut.
Can I eat keto ice cream every day?
While it may be tempting to sit down to a bowl of ice cream every day, especially if you consistently hit your daily carbohydrate, fat, and protein targets, we can't recommend it. Keto-friendly treats replace natural sugar with sweeteners like stevia, monk fruit, allulose, and/or erythritol. These chemicals are known to cause digestive issues should you overindulge.
But beyond an upset stomach, it's important to remember that variety isn't only the spice of life; it's the key to a healthy lifestyle. You want to make sure you're incorporating a healthy mix of fruit and veggies into your diet. You’ll feel better and won't get bored with your food. After all, is ice cream still a treat if you eat it every day?
