How to Make Lemon Blueberry Ice Cream
You can make this easy to follow lemon blueberry ice cream recipe using either an ice cream maker or with a plastic container (the same method applies to homemade peach, watermelon (yes, watermelon) and honey lavender ice cream):
- Prepare the blueberry mixture. Add either fresh or frozen blueberries, granulated sugar, freshly squeezed lemon juice and finely grated lemon zest to a saucepan.
- Boil. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium high heat.
- Cook. Reduce the heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, for 15 to 20 minutes (or until the mixture has thickened to your liking).
- Cool. Remove the blueberry mixture from the heat and allow to cool slightly.
- Blend. Add the blueberry mixture to a blender and blend until smooth.
- Beat the cream. Use the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment to beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
- Fold in the milk. Fold in the sweetened condensed milk.
- Fold in the blueberries. Fold in the blueberry mixture.
- (Option A) Freeze. Freeze the mixture in your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- (Option B) Freeze. If you don’t have an ice cream maker, transfer the chilled mixture to a plastic container with a lid and freeze for a minimum of 4 hours (or until set).
