I am a certified ice-cream addict. Seriously, I eat ice cream almost everyday; it is what sustains me. So one day when I came home and my brother gave me ice cream to try that he had made, I was skeptical. We do not own an ice-cream churner and I didn't think that you could make good ice cream without one. I was wrong. The ice cream was so good, and it turned out it was super easy to make. I searched online for easy homemade ice cream recipes online and found so many recipes that range from simple flavors to ones with several ingredients. Here are 18 homemade ice cream recipes to make this summer and enjoy on a hot day:
1. No-Churn Vanilla Ice Cream
I used this recipe to make vanilla ice cream and it turned out amazing! First off, you only need three ingredients, and they are things that are common in every kitchen. This recipe was extremely easy to follow and was not hard to make at all. It did not require an ice-cream churner which was a plus since I don't own one, and was a lot easier than other recipes I looked at that had you shaking the ice cream for a few minutes instead of using a mixer. Although it took a while in the freezer, the ice cream came out great and was so delicious! I would definitely use this recipe again and recommend it to anyone looking for a simple recipe for homemade ice cream.
Ingredients:
- 1 pint (2 cups) heavy cream
- 14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract or 1 vanilla bean
Directions:
- If using a vanilla bean, slice the pod in half lengthwise with a paring knife and scrape the seeds out using the dull edge of the knife. Add the vanilla bean seeds or vanilla extract and the sweetened condensed milk in a small bowl and stir to combine.
- Add heavy cream to a mixing bowl and whip on high for several minutes until stiff peaks form. Turn the mixer on low and slowly add the vanilla mixture to the heavy cream. Once combined, pour into a freezer-safe container and freeze at least 6 hours to overnight.
