Ingredients
  

  • Strawberries: Fresh or frozen, hulled. If using frozen, thaw slightly for easier blending.
  • Full-fat Greek yogurt: Choose unsweetened, plain Greek yogurt for the right thickness and fewer carbs.
  • Heavy cream: Adds body and creaminess, helping prevent an icy texture.
  • Keto sweetener: Granulated allulose or powdered erythritol/monk fruit blend. Allulose tends to keep the texture softer.
  • Vanilla extract: Enhances the strawberry flavor.
  • Lemon juice: Brightens the flavor and adds a classic fro-yo tang.
  • Pinch of salt: Boosts sweetness and overall flavor.
  • Optional: A touch of vodka (1–2 teaspoons) to reduce iciness, or a pinch of xanthan gum for extra smoothness.

Method
 

  1. Prep the berries: Hull strawberries. If using frozen, let them sit out for 10–15 minutes to soften slightly. Pat dry to avoid extra water.
  2. Blend the base: In a blender, combine strawberries, Greek yogurt, heavy cream, sweetener, vanilla, lemon juice, and salt. Blend until very smooth. Taste and adjust sweetness or lemon as needed.
  3. Chill the mixture: Pour into a bowl, cover, and refrigerate for 1–2 hours until cold. A cold base churns faster and gets creamier.
  4. Optional texture boost: If using xanthan gum, sprinkle in a tiny pinch while blending again briefly. If using vodka, stir it in now.
  5. Churn: Add the chilled mixture to your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s directions, usually 15–20 minutes, until thick and soft-serve consistency.
  6. Freeze to set: Transfer to a lidded container. Press parchment directly onto the surface to prevent ice crystals. Freeze 2–4 hours for scoopable firmness.
  7. No-churn method: Pour the blended base into a shallow container. Freeze for 2–3 hours, stirring vigorously every 30 minutes during the first 2 hours to break up ice crystals. Freeze until set.
  8. Serve: Let it sit at room temp for 5–10 minutes to soften. Scoop and enjoy.
