Whip up a batch of Keto magnum ice cream bars, ready to enjoy whenever the sun makes an appearance!
A delicious treat shouldn't come at a cost to your health...
We don't believe that anyone has to go without their favourite foods, especially when it comes to ice cream on a hot summer's day.
Instead, you can make your favourite sweet treats from scratch - leaving out the sugar and using all natural ingredients instead.
That way you can enjoy a creamy ice cream bar with a crunchy chocolate coating - that's deceivingly healthy and surprisingly full of good stuff!
Hunter & Gather 100% Pure Coconut and MCT Oil
We add two of our favourite fabulous fats to this recipe - to keep you naturally energised and contribute to your daily fat intake.
Both derived from Organic coconuts, our C8 MCT Oil and Cold Pressed Coconut Oil are packed with healthy fats and beneficial nutrients.
They're ideal for adding to Keto and Low Carb recipes to up the good fat content and replace less nutritious inflammatory fats such as vegetable and seed oils.
With a subtle coconut flavour, we also love how coconut oil pairs perfectly with dark chocolate - and you will too.
Here's the recipe!
