Homemade Blueberry Ice Cream

Homemade Blueberry Ice Cream – A Sweet Summer Treat

Homemade ice cream is so delicious and this blueberry version makes for a great summertime treat.

  • Total Time: 5 hours 25 minutes
  • Yield: 4 cups 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1⁄2 cup sugar
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1⁄4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. In a small saucepan, combine the blueberries and sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the sugar has dissolved and the blueberries have released their juices, about 5 minutes. Mash the berries lightly with a fork or potato masher. Set aside to cool completely.
  2. In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Set aside.
  3. In another bowl, stir together the milk and vanilla extract.
  4. Once the blueberry mixture has cooled, stir it into the milk mixture.
  5. Gently fold the whipped cream into the blueberry milk mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and freeze according to manufacturer’s instructions. Transfer to an airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours before serving.

Notes

Store leftovers in freezer for up to 2 weeks.
