Blueberry Ice Cream

Making ice cream is so easy and simple. It’s a great way to use some of those summer berries. Plus, you can pronounce every ingredient in it. That’s a big plus these days.

I made some blueberry ice cream today. I used an electric ice cream maker.


Here is the ingredient list.

2 pints blueberries (one frozen one fresh)
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
1-2 drops cinnamon essential oil
2 cups heavy whipping cream
1 1/2 cups half and half
1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Mix 1 pint blueberries, sugars, cinnamon, whipping cream, half and half and vanilla extract in a bowl.
Pour mixture into an ice cream maker.
Add ice and rock salt as instructed.



After 10 minutes add the frozen berries.

Hint - freeze berries in a single layer on a cookie sheet. Once they are frozen you can place them in a bowl to store. Otherwise they will stick together and not make for the perfect combination of berries and cream.

After another 10 minutes your ice cream is ready to soft serve. Place in an air tight container in the freezer and take out 15 minutes before serving to soften.



So good and fresh. You can make ice cream out of anything you have lots of. Mint ice cream is amazing. Just use peppermint or spearmint essential oil. You can even try exotic blends such as rosemary and orange!

Let your imagination fly. And have a cool summer!
