3-INGREDIENT NO-CHURN VANILLA ICE CREAM

The easiest homemade vanilla ice cream recipe you’ll ever make. Just three ingredients and no ice cream maker necessary! 

I had a hot debate with myself regarding whether or not to post this recipe since I tend to shield you all from the magical ways of heavy duty dairy and refined sugar, but in the end, the recipe won. It’s simply too good not to share.

My primary reason for posting this recipe is it’s basically your gateway to all no-churn ice creams. Simply add your flavors (like peppermint extract, rum or other booze, peanut butter, caramel, cocoa, fresh fruit, etc), and you can prepare any type of ice cream you desire. One recipe is the gateway to all the fun.

Plain vanilla, whaaaaaaa?

INGREDIENTS

• 1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
• 2 cups heavy cream (1 pint)
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon sea salt

INSTRUCTIONS

NO-CHURN INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Add all of the ingredients for the ice cream to a blender. Blend until well-combined.
2. Pour the ice cream base into a freezer-safe container, cover, and freeze for 5 hours, or until frozen solid.
3. When ready to serve, allow ice cream to thaw for 2 to 5 minutes. Scoop ice cream into bowls and serve.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING AN ICE CREAM MAKER:

1. Place the bowl of your ice cream maker in the freezer overnight (or follow the instructions for your specific ice cream maker ahead of time).
2. Add all of the ingredients for the ice cream to a blender. Blend until well-combined.
3. Set up your ice cream maker and pour the vanilla ice cream base into the frozen bowl. Turn the ice cream maker on and allow it to churn until very thick and machine begins to slow down, about 30 to 40 minutes.
4. Either serve immediately for soft serve consistency, or transfer ice cream to a freezer-safe container, and freeze for 2 hours. When ready to serve, allow ice cream to thaw 2 to 5 minutes before scooping and serving.
