What Does Egg Ice Cream Taste Like?

If you’ve ever had a traditional custard ice cream made with egg yolks, you’ll understand why eggs work so well in homemade ice cream.

Unlike many homemade keto ice cream recipes that rely on heavy cream, coconut cream, guar gum, xanthan gum, or an ice cream machine, this recipe uses whole hard boiled eggs to create a naturally creamy texture.

The result is more like a frozen yogurt meets soft serve consistency than traditional hard ice cream.

And no, it does not taste like eggs.

Ingredients Needed

You only need three simple ingredients:

• Hard boiled eggs
• Plain low-fat Greek yogurt
• Frozen fruit

Optional additions:

Why Frozen Fruit Works Best

Frozen fruit is the key to achieving the perfect soft serve consistency.

Fresh fruit will create more of a smoothie texture, while frozen fruit helps thicken the mixture into a creamy dessert.

Some great options include:

• Strawberries
• Mango
• Blueberries
• Raspberries
• Blackberries
• Cherries
• Peaches

Keep in mind that net carbs will vary depending on the fruit used.

Strawberry Version

Using frozen strawberries provides:

• 151 calories per serving
• 14 grams protein
• 6 grams net carbs

Mango Version

Using frozen mango provides:

• 165 calories per serving
• 14 grams protein
• 10 grams net carbs

If you’re following a strict keto diet or monitoring blood sugar spikes, strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries are generally lower-carb options.

Helpful Tips for Success

Use a High-Powered Blender

A powerful blender helps create the smoothest texture and completely blends the eggs into the mixture.

Eat Immediately for Soft Serve

The texture is best right after blending.

It resembles the consistency of fresh soft serve ice cream.

Freeze for Later

If you freeze the entire batch, it will firm up after several hours.

Allow it to sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes before serving.

Sweetness Matters

Depending on the fruit you use, you may not need additional sweetener.

Taste before adding anything extra.

Add More Protein

Want even more protein?

Try adding:

If adding protein powder, you may need a little bit of water to help the blender process the mixture.

Easy Flavor Variations

Chocolate Protein Ice Cream

Add:

Vanilla Bean Ice Cream

Add:

• Vanilla extract
• Vanilla bean paste
• Extra sweetener if desired

Berry Blend

Combine:

• Strawberries
• Raspberries
• Blackberries

Tropical Mango

Use frozen mango and a splash of coconut milk for a tropical flavor.

Swaps and Substitutions

Dairy-Free Option

Swap Greek yogurt for:

Keep in mind that protein will be lower.

Lower Carb Option

Use:

• Frozen strawberries
• Frozen raspberries
• Frozen blackberries

These fruits typically have fewer net carbs than mango.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I Use Raw Eggs?

I don’t recommend raw eggs in this recipe.

Hard boiled eggs provide the creamy texture while keeping the recipe simple and safe.

Can I Make This Without an Ice Cream Machine?

Yes!

That’s what makes this recipe so special. No traditional ice cream maker, Ninja Creami, or additional cost is required.

Can I Meal Prep This Recipe?

Yes, but the texture is best immediately after blending.

If frozen, allow it to soften before serving.

Does It Taste Like Eggs?

Not at all.

Most people would never guess there are whole eggs in this recipe.

Is This Good for Weight Loss?

This high protein dessert can fit into a weight loss plan when your macros allow. Protein helps support satiety and may help you stay satisfied longer than traditional ice cream. If you’re following my Midlife Macro Meal plans or Method, this is approved.

Can I Use a Ninja Creami or Ice Cream Machine?

Absolutely!

The beauty of this recipe is that it’s delicious right after blending, but you can also adapt it for a Ninja Creami or traditional ice cream maker if you prefer a firmer, scoopable ice cream.

For a Ninja Creami

Blend the ingredients until completely smooth, then pour the mixture into a Ninja Creami pint container.

• Freeze for at least 24 hours.
• Process using the Lite Ice Cream or Sorbet setting.
• If the mixture looks crumbly after the first spin, add 1-2 tablespoons of milk, almond milk, coconut milk, or water and use the Re-Spin Cycle.

Because this recipe is naturally lower in fat than traditional ice cream, a re-spin may help achieve a creamier texture.

For a Traditional Ice Cream Machine

Blend the ingredients until smooth, then pour the mixture directly into your ice cream machine. I have an attachment for my Kitchenaid.

• Churn according to your manufacturer’s instructions.
• Enjoy immediately for a soft-serve consistency.
• Freeze for 2-4 hours for a firmer texture.

Which Method Is Best?

Honestly, I prefer this recipe blended and eaten immediately.

Since the frozen fruit already creates a soft serve consistency, there’s no waiting, no freezing point issues, and no need for additional ingredients like xanthan gum, guar gum, heavy cream, condensed milk, or egg yolks that many homemade ice cream recipes require.

But if you already own a Ninja Creami or traditional ice cream maker, both methods work well and can give you a more traditional hard ice cream texture.

My Favorite Method

For busy days, I simply blend:

• 2 hard boiled eggs
• Greek yogurt
• Frozen fruit

Then enjoy immediately.

Five minutes later, I’m eating ice cream instead of waiting 24 hours for a Ninja Creami pint to freeze!
