Keto No-Churn Strawberry Mascarpone Ice Cream

13 ratings

This ice cream has such a nice tartness from Italian mascarpone cheese and fresh strawberries. The star of this ice cream is the fresh strawberry sauce that is deliciously swirled into the ice cream base before freezing.

Recipe Steps

steps 8

4 h 40 min

  • Step 1

    Combine 2 T Swerve with ¼ teaspoon xanthan gum and a ⅛ teaspoon of kosher salt.
    Step 1
  • Step 2

    Dice strawberries into a small dice. Place into a small saucepan along with the sweetener mixture, lemon juice and 2 T water.
    Step 2
  • Step 3

    Cook over medium-heat stirring continuously until the mixture thickens. Allow mixture to cool in the fridge until well chilled. It will continue to thicken as it cools.
    Step 3
  • Step 4

    Place mascarpone cheese in a medium mixing bowl. With a hand mixer, blend in 1/2 cup Swerve with ⅛ teaspoon of kosher salt. Set in the fridge while preparing the whipped cream.
    Step 4
  • Step 5

    In a clean stand mixer or hand mixer with a clean bowl, whip the heavy cream (make sure cream is straight from the fridge/cold) on high until soft peaks form. Add ¼ cup of Swerve, ⅛ teaspoon of kosher salt and 1 ½ teaspoons of vanilla extract and continue mixing until stiff peaks form.
    Step 5
  • Step 6

    Add a big scoop of whipped cream to the mixed mascarpone cheese mixture and fold in to lighten the mixture.
    Step 6
  • Step 7

    Add the mascarpone/whipped cream mixture to the larger bowl of whipped cream and fold gently to combine. Then fold in the chilled strawberry sauce very gently and only a few times to create nice swirls of strawberries without overmixing it in. Alternatively, you could scoop the whipped cream mixture into the loaf pan, top with the strawberry sauce and then swirl the sauce in with a butter knife.
    Step 7
  • Step 8

    Scoop into a parchment lined loaf pan. Freeze for 3-4 hours until cold, but not super hard. Allow to defrost at room temp until soft enough to scoop if it does become too frozen.
    Step 8

    I made this recipe exactly as written. I think it’s perfect. You can change things up by changing the fruit you use too. Blueberries would probably be great too.

      I love this yummy dessert ❤️❤️I did make a couple of changes though. I used fresh raspberry 1 cup. I followed the recipe till whipping the cream, then only used 2 tablespoons powdered Swerve. And I used an 8x8 square glass pan. So good! The only problem I had is by using parchment paper in the pan, the paper gets very wet and soggy when you thaw it out. Next time ‘no parchment paper! Really enjoyed this dessert-thank you for the recipe!

        Love this! Gave it 4 stars because it is REALLY sweet. Definitely do half the sugar if you’re making this recipe!

          Really amazing. I used half the sweetener called for in the recipe and it was great. Cream and mascarpone are naturally sweet. Also cut the berries by 1/2 cup and still came out great. My wife wants to eat all my “diet” ice cream. Will lower the sweetener further for next batch. 4 stars only because i feel the sweetener is excessive as written.
