I’ve been experimenting with several ways of making a copycat version of wink frozen desserts. There’s the No Machine Version as well as the ice cream maker version below. They are free of all allergens. Plus, they’re super low in calories and net carbs. Using the ingredients I had on hand, I made one slightly higher in calories and net carbs, but provide you with a list of brands that will lower the totals to match Wink Frozen Desserts. They’re amazing and the flavor combinations are endless! View the video here.
All of the brands mentioned can be found on Amazon.

In a medium-sized saucepan, whisk together the inulin, pea/brown rice protein powder, flaxseed meal, guar gum, and monk fruit extract powder.

Transfer the mixture to a 2-quart ice cream maker such as Cuisinart. Mix according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The Cuisinart takes 20 minutes.
-
Scoop into an airtight container. Cover the top of the mixture, directly, with parchment paper or wax paper to prevent ice crystals from forming. Cover and freeze.
