A creamy, refreshing homemade raspberry ice cream that’s bursting with the tangy-sweet flavor of fresh raspberries. Perfect for summer days or any time you crave a fruity frozen treat!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups raspberries (fresh or thawed frozen)
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 2 cups heavy cream (chilled)
  • 1 cup whole milk (chilled)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Raspberry Puree:
    In a medium bowl, mix raspberries and sugar. Let sit for 15 minutes to release juices. Blend until smooth, and strain through a sieve if you prefer seedless ice cream.
  2. Make the Ice Cream Base:
    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the raspberry puree, heavy cream, whole milk, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
  3. Churn the Ice Cream:
    Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker while it’s running. Churn according to your machine’s instructions (about 30 minutes) until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
  4. Freeze for Firmness:
    Transfer the churned ice cream to a loaf pan or airtight container. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight.
  5. Serve and Enjoy:
    Scoop into bowls or cones and savor the creamy, fruity goodness!

Notes

Serving Suggestions:

  • Garnish with fresh raspberries or mint leaves for an elegant touch.
  • Pair with shortbread cookies or drizzle with chocolate sauce for extra indulgence.

Tips & Tricks:

  • Chill all ingredients and equipment (including the ice cream maker bowl) for better results.
  • Strain the raspberry puree if you prefer a smoother texture without seeds.

Storage & Reheating:

  • Store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. To prevent freezer burn, press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the ice cream.
  • Let sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes before scooping if it becomes too firm.
