If you are looking for an anti-inflammatory ice cream then this is a great choice. It is easy to make and only contains a few ingredients you probably already have at home.
The full fat coconut milk provides medium chain fatty acids that help you to burn fat, reduce inflammation and support healthy blood sugar levels. Berries are rich in anti-oxidants that reduce stress on the body and help you age better and feel better.
To make this a complete meal you want to add in some bone broth protein. Healthy meals should always have anti-oxidants, fiber, good fats and clean protein. This one has anti-oxidants and fiber from the berries, good fats from the coconut and protein if you choose from bone broth protein.
Bone broth protein is full of collagen which supports the body’s ability to heal leaky gut, strengthen bones, joints and improves the skin and hair. It helps to prevent against joint injuries and joint pain. It is also the ultimate beauty food that supplies the body with the right amino acids for beautiful skin and hair.
The best flavor for this ice cream is the vanilla! If you use that, you can reduce or eliminate putting in the vanilla extract and stevia if you like. Try this recipe out and let us know how you like it in the comments box below.

I don’t like the taste of stevia. Any other recommendations? Coconut palm sugar or maple syrup? erythritol? Then how much also.
Hey Beverly, Yes, you could absolutely use a syrup alternative like Lakanto or ChocZero to your taste preference. I have only tried the recipe as written.
Can You use a ripe banana? Hate artificial sweeteners!😂
Sure go ahead!
The taste of stevia varies greatly with manufacturer. SweetLeaf and NutraMedix make very good tasting stevia.
I’m going to try Monk fruit! 💙
You could try swerve
I will probably be experimenting by trying this with maple syrup, bananas, coconut sugar & dates instead of the stevia.
Let us know how it comes out! Blessings!
Icy, cool and refreshing. Thanks for the treat.
You’re welcome Jen! Blessings!
I have an ice cream maker ~ do you think it may work using it instead of the baking sheet method? By the way, excellent customer service on an issue I had the other day! Very very well done! Thank you!
Hi Julia, Absolutely! I would follow the recommendations for your machine for coconut milk! Let us know how it works for you! Blessings!
Could I use almond milk or oat milk??
Yes sure!
When you said if you use vanilla so you don’t need vanilla extract and stevia, what would you use and how much?
