It shouldn’t be this easy to make such a delicious treat. No-Churn Blueberry Ice Cream is quickly becoming my new favorite summer recipe!
If you haven’t yet made a no-churn ice cream, start with this one. It’s amazing that such simple ingredients and minimal effort could yield such delicious results.
Begin with berries. Cook them in a small saucepan until their juices are released and thickened.
Whip the cream, fold in the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla, and pour into a loaf pan.
Drop dollops of cooked and cooled fruit on top of the ice cream, swirl with a knife, top with a sheet of waxed paper… and freeze. It’s that simple.
It takes about 6 hours to thoroughly freeze. Although, when I check mine, it’s fairly firm at even 4 hours.
Treat yourself and your family to a sweet, summer treat! Serve it at your next ice cream party, or scooped between two of your favorite cookies for a delicious ice cream sandwich!
Frequently Asked Questions
I love that this recipe is a celebration of fresh berries, but if canned is all you have on hand go ahead. Though, if there is a lot of liquid drain some away to stop icy lumps forming in your ice cream. If you have any extra fruit leftovers would be delicious served alongside the ice cream for a super fruity treat!
Yes! Any fruit will do but fresh berries will work best.
