My mom and I have been listening to some podcasts on Blood Sugar and GLP-1 agonists lately… GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) if you don’t know, is a hormone that helps regulate blood sugar, appetite and digestion. Recently, metabolism experts have been touting Allulose as a tasty, GLP-1 agonist and there are studies to prove it.

The other day she showed up with some amazing coconut ice cream for me made with egg whites for extra protein… and unlike most of my other coconut ice creams, it stayed soft enough to scoop after frozen! We both attributed it to the use of egg whites instead of yolks, but after trying this recipe again and subbing the whites with whole eggs, it still worked… so I will be forever using whole eggs instead of just the regular yolk ice creams I have made in the past. Extra protein, soft to scoop… cheers and celebration all around. 😉

Notes: I highly recommend powdering the allulose granules in a blender or food processor before incorporating. I have tried other brands, but they taste metallic. RxSugar is tested for purity.  You can add extra protein in the form of the NOW Egg White Protein or Myers Way Paleo Proteins listed below (Myer’s Way Chocolate Protein is what we use for hot chocolate around here!)

As for the ice cream maker, we use this Cuisinart one. I also have a Kitchen Aid Bowl Attachment but the Ice Cream Machine works far better with fewer failures.
