Carnivore Egg Yolk Gelato
Description
Carnivore Egg Yolk Gelato is a rich, silky, ultra-creamy frozen dessert made entirely from animal-based ingredients. Unlike traditional ice cream, this version relies heavily on egg yolks for its luxurious texture and natural thickening power. It’s smooth, custardy, high in healthy fats, and perfect for strict carnivore or animal-based diets.
This recipe is simple, nutrient-dense, and incredibly satisfying — no sugar, no fillers, no plant ingredients.
🛒 Ingredients (Serves 4)
6 large egg yolks
1 ½ cups heavy cream
½ cup whole milk (optional – for softer texture; omit for stricter carnivore and replace with more cream)
2–3 tbsp powdered erythritol (optional, for sweetness)
1 tsp pure vanilla extract (optional, animal-based followers may omit)
Pinch of salt
Strict Carnivore Version:
Use only egg yolks, heavy cream, and a pinch of salt.
