A reader reached out with some healthy substitutions so yes! While I just talked about how much I love eggs in ice cream, this reader has an egg allergy and left them out. She also substituted the dark brown sugar for a combination of monk fruit sweetener and molasses, and she decreased the lactose content by switching whole milk for almond milk while still using the heavy cream. Because she didn't have to cook the eggs, she also got to skip the heating step entirely.
