    In this free 5-day email series learn all my tips for incorporating a low-carb lifestyle into the life of your family.

    My blog didn't have a single recipe that had both red and blue for the 4th of July. I had to remedy that and what better way to that than with a no-bake ice cream pie. This has layers of an almond pastry that is reminiscent of a graham cracker crust, a creamy vanilla ice cream studded with mixed berries, fresh whipped cream, and then more berries to show off the red, white, and blue.

    No-Bake Crust

    I use a no-bake crust that is a combination of almond flour, almond butter, butter, and sweetener that is inspired by the crust my friend Sarah of Mrs. Criddle's Kitchen posted a few days ago. She uses the crust in her gorgeous fruit tart. I made a few tweaks for my taste buds and it is amazing. I had to refrain from eating all of it before I could press it into the pie plate. I did a little too much taste testing as is.

    How to Make Berry Ice Cream

    My ice creams are normally a combo of heavy cream, half and half, and almond milk. For this ice cream pie, I decided to skip the almond milk and add yogurt and cottage cheese to thicken it and add protein.

    I do use raw egg yolks in all of my ice cream recipes. The addition of the egg yolks makes the ice cream creamier. Since eggs are a naturally low carb ingredient they work well for ice cream. If you are concerned about using raw yolks you can purchase pasteurized eggs. Or you can temper the ice cream by heating it and then cooling it before churning.

    The glycerin is optional but highly recommended in this recipe. It helps the pie not to freeze too hard to cut. If you use glycerin you only need to let the pie sit out for about 10 minutes before cutting. If you do not it might take up to an hour.

    Also, this ice cream recipe makes more ice cream than you need for the pie. You will end up with an extra pint or so. Just freeze the excess separately (after churning) and enjoy when the pie is gone and you wish it wasn't.

    How to Assemble an Ice Cream Pie

    1. Make one no-bake pie crust

    2. Make the ice cream

    3. Pour the ice cream into the crust

    4. Freeze until firm

    5. If desired, top with whipped cream and decorate with fresh berries

    What if I don't have an Ice Cream Maker?

    If you don't own an ice cream machine you can mix berries into store-bought ice cream and then continue with the rest of the recipe.

    Variations

    Ice Cream Flavor - swap out the vanilla ice cream for another flavor that pairs well with berries like this Keto Lemon Ice Cream.

    Berries - use another type of berries such as raspberries or blackberries.

    Peaches - did you know that peaches have less net carbs than blueberries? It's true. Sub in some peaches for a delicious peaches and cream pie.

    Ingredients

    Ice Cream Ingredients:

    • 2 cups heavy cream
    • 1 cup half and half
    • ½ cup plain greek yogurt
    • ½ cup 4% cottage cheese
    • 3 egg yolks
    • ½ cup Joy Filled Eats Sweetener (or see alternatives in recipe notes)
    • 1 tablespoon vanilla
    • 1 tablespoon glycerin
    • 1.5 cups frozen mixed berries

    No-Bake Crust:

    • 2 cups almond flour
    • ½ cup salted butter melted
    • ¼ cup almond butter
    • ¼ cup Joy Filled Eats Sweetener (or see alternatives in recipe notes)

    To Assemble:

    • one no bake pie crust

    Instructions

    • Combine all the ice cream ingredients (except the berries) in a blender and process until smooth. Churn in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
    • Meanwhile, prepare the pie crust. Chill while the ice cream is churning.
    • When the ice cream is ready gently stir in the berries. Spoon ⅔ of it unto the pie crust. Save the rest for another use (or just eat it). Freeze the pie for at least 5-6 hours.
    • Ten minutes before serving remove the pie from the freezer. Whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Mix in the sweetener. Use the whipped cream to top the pie. Decorate with fresh berries. Slice and serve.
    • Tip: If you don't own an ice cream machine you can mix berries into store-bought ice cream and then continue with the rest of the recipe.

    Notes

    Notes on Sweeteners: 
    I use my own blend of xylitol, erythritol, and stevia in my recipes. This is twice as sweet as sugar. It is comparable to Trim Healthy Mama Gentle Sweet and Truvia.
    To sub in Swerve or Lakanto Monk Fruit use 1.5 times the amount of sweetener called for. 
     
    To sub in Pyure or Trim Healthy Mama Super Sweet use half the amount of sweetener called for.
     
    Substitutions will work in most recipes. They may not work in candies, such as caramel.

      I have made a few variations of this & family loves!! For chocolate I leave out berries & added 1/4cu cocoa (no extra sweetener needed). For key lime leave out berries (& next time I’ll leave out vanilla flavoring as I think it cut back on key lime flavor so had to add more). Added 1/2 cup plus 2 TBSP Key lime flavoring—no sugar one). Today I plan to make banana leaving out berries & using 2tsp banana extract. I may mash one banana as the carb content for entire pie would be ~25 so 8 slices gives you about 3g (for added banana) per slice. My next may be coconut using some shredded flakes & coconut extract. I found out my dad loves cream pies & these are the closest he’s had to his what remembers from his childhood! My SIL says this is the closest to real ice cream she’s had & so far everyone loves chocolate the best!5 stars

        Vodka might work. I've seen it used in other low carb ice cream recipes.

        Hi Gayle! An excellent sweetener I use is called pyure they carry it at my Walmart in Ohio. To figure out the amount of sweetener to use I have learned how sweet my sweetener is in general (a little less sweet than super sweet blend and a little more sweet than gentle sweet) but the best advice I can give is to just experiment and try. When I'm not sure how much to use I get a general idea (like from the sweetener conversion chart) and then I taste whatever to see if it's sweet enough. Trial and error
        Hope that helps

      If you don't have an ice cream make any other suggestions? Like freeze and then put in vitamix?

        Hi Nancy, you can substitute a "no churn ice cream" for my recipe. This one without the instant coffee should work: http://alldayidreamaboutfood.com/2015/06/low-carb-no-churn-coffee-ice-cream.html

      Not sure if I'm posting this the right way. I want to know if there is any other sweetener I could use instead of the gentle sweet? So far I've been able to get xylitol and organic liquid stevia. I also have nustevia.
      Can anyone help me on how to use these together until I'm able to get what I need.

        Hi Gayle, for this recipe you can just substitute another sweetener to taste. This chart may be helpful: http://www.trimhealthymama.com/main-home/sweetener-conversion-chart/

        I have a question about the THM Trim train taco soup. Is it S or FP. Not sure how this works. I wanted to make cheddar biscuits to go with it. Just had almond flour cream cheese eggs and butter. Will this be bad together for I'm trying to lose weight.
        Thank you

          Hi Gayle,

          That taco soup is a FP. You can have the biscuits with it to make it an S.
