Homemade Blackberry Ice Cream

Dive into summer with this luscious homemade blackberry ice cream, bursting with the vibrant flavors of ripe blackberries. This creamy treat is not only a delightful indulgence but also a nostalgic nod to the age-old tradition of making ice cream by hand, using simple, fresh ingredients. Perfect for warm days or as a sweet finish to any meal, this blackberry ice cream will transport you back to childhood summers spent picking berries and enjoying frozen delights under the sun.

Serves 8

Ingredients

Fresh blackberries
2 cups, plus extra for serving
Granulated sugar
3/4 cup, divided
Lemon juice
1 tablespoon, freshly squeezed
Vanilla extract
1 teaspoon
Whole milk
1 cup
Heavy cream
2 cups

Instructions

  1. Start by washing the fresh blackberries thoroughly. In a blender or food processor, puree the blackberries until smooth.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the blackberry puree with 1/2 cup of granulated sugar. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved. Taste and adjust sweetness if necessary.
  3. Add the heavy cream, whole milk, vanilla extract, and lemon juice to the blackberry mixture. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
  4. Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency, usually about 20-25 minutes.
  5. Transfer the ice cream to a lidded container and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm.
  6. When ready to serve, scoop the blackberry ice cream into bowls or cones and garnish with extra fresh blackberries for a beautiful presentation. Enjoy!

Tips

  • 💡 For extra creaminess, consider using a higher fat content milk or adding a few tablespoons of sweetened condensed milk.
  • 💡 If you prefer a chunkier texture, reserve some blackberry pieces and fold them into the ice cream during the last few minutes of churning.
  • 💡 This ice cream pairs wonderfully with a drizzle of chocolate sauce or a sprinkle of crushed nuts.
