Ingredients
Steps
Place the cottage cheese, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt into a high-speed blender or food processor.
Blend the mixture on high until it is completely smooth and no lumps from the cottage cheese remain.
Pour the blended mixture into a container (the original cottage cheese container or a shallow loaf pan works well).
Drizzle the caramel sauce over the mixture and sprinkle with the chopped pecans.
Use a knife or spoon to gently swirl the caramel and pecans into the cottage cheese base.
Cover the container and place it in the freezer for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
Remove from the freezer and let it sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly before scooping and serving.
Notes
If the ice cream becomes too hard in the freezer, simply let it thaw on the counter for a few minutes until it reaches a scoopable consistency. You can use sugar-free caramel sauce and a monk fruit sweetener to make this lower in sugar.
