Easy Homemade Mulberry Ice Cream
Simple Living. Creative LearningThis homemade mulberry ice cream with only 5 ingredients is a great way to use all those mulberries from your trees!
Ingredients
- 2 ½ Cups Mulberries
- 2 tsp Vanilla Extract
- ¾ Cup Caster Sugar
- 2 Cups Thickened Cream
- 1 Cup Milk
- Pinch of Salt Optional
Instructions
- Wash and dry the mulberries. Cut off the excess stem if you wish.
- Add the mulberries, salt and vanilla extract to a blender and puree until smooth. This puree can be strained to remove the seeds and excess stem if you wish.
- Add the caster sugar and the cream to the blender if it will fit and blend until combined.
- Add the milk to the blender and blend through.
- If the mixture doesn't fit in your blender, add it all to a large bowl and mix until the sugar is dissolved.
- Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until thick and creamy.
- Transfer to a large container and freeze for at least 4 hours until firm.
- If you don't have an ice cream maker, then pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container and freeze the mixture until it sets. I like to take it out and beat it again in the stand mixer and let it set again before using as this helps make it extra creamy, though you don't have to do this.
- Remove the ice cream from the freezer about 5 minutes before serving to allow it to soften for easier scooping.
- Serve and enjoy!
