Description

What's not to love about an easy recipe for homemade ice cream? This one features rich swirls thanks to blueberries and a comforting texture from an oat crumble spread throughout.


Ingredients

Scale

Blueberries:

  • 1.5 cups (280 grams) cups frozen blueberries
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Crumble

  • 2/3 cup oat flour (grind approximately 3/4 cup of oats) 
  • 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 3 Tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • Pinch of salt

Ice Cream

  • 2 cups (480ml) heavy cream
  • 14 ounce (396g) can full-fat sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Prepare your blueberries: Add blueberries, sugar, and lemon juice to a medium sized pot and bring to boil over medium high heat. Continue to boil for 6-10 additional minutes. By the end, your berries will have slightly more of a sauce-like consistency.
  2. Pour hot berry mixture into a heat proof bowl, and place in the freezer to cool down as you proceed with the rest of the recipe.
  3. Make your crumble: In a food processor or blender, combine and pulse your oats into a powder-like consistency. You can next add your sugar, cinnamon, melted butter, and pinch of salt to your processor and pulse until the contents look like dark, wet sand. Alternatively, you can mix it all together in a small bowl. Either way, once mixed, set aside.
  4. Create the Ice Cream: In a chilled bowl with cold beaters or whisk attachment, beat your heavy cream on medium high until peaks form (approximately 2-3 minutes). Do not over-mix, or your cream will taste like butter!
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk by hand your vanilla extract and sweetened condensed milk. Combine until completely smooth, 30-60 seconds before pouring into container you're using to freeze your ice cream.
  6. Fold your whipped cream into the sweetened condensed milk with a spatula. 
  7. Carefully fold blueberries and oat crumble into your batter. Fold 4-5 times so that you still get distinct, deep purple swirls throughout your ice cream.
