This recipe has a natural strawberry flavor and contains no artificial coloring.

You can also adjust the amount of fruit and sweetness according to your preference.

Best of all, it’s very easy to prepare. You’ll only need strawberries—fresh or frozen—heavy whipping cream, and sweetened condensed milk.

You’ll also need a mixer and a blender or food processor to purée the strawberries, although you can mash them with a fork instead.


Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh or frozen strawberries, washed and cleaned
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk

Instructions

  1. Purée the strawberries in a blender or food processor.
  2. Whip the cream with an electric mixer on medium speed for approximately five minutes, or until soft peaks form.
  3. Add the strawberry purée and gently fold it into the whipped cream.
  4. Add the sweetened condensed milk and fold gently until everything is thoroughly combined.
  5. Pour the mixture into an airtight container and freeze it for at least six hours, or overnight for the best results.
  6. During the first three to four hours, stir the ice cream every 40 minutes to break up any ice crystals and create a creamier texture.
  7. Take the ice cream out of the freezer just before serving and add your favorite decorations.

And that’s it! Your delicious homemade strawberry ice cream is ready.

I hope you enjoy it!
