Have you ever made non-churn ice cream?

Question

In yesterday's "what am I making" question I showed some cream, honey, yogurt etc and many of you rightly guessed ice cream, or iced honey and orange loaf as the recipe calls it. You'll be pleased to know that's the last "What's it going to be" question.

But it does lead on to today's question Have you ever made non-churn ice cream and how did it turn out?

There's lot's of recipes out there for non churn ice-cream substitutes where you just whisk ingredients together then freeze. The most well known is to put bananas in a blender then freeze.

I've tried quite a few over the years and if I'm honest found them all, including yesterday's, to be rather disappointing. But then I am an ice cream snob.

No, I've never made non-churn ice cream, because I can only imagine it would suck. If I'm going to make ice cream (and I have), it's because I want BETTER ice cream than the crap I can buy at the store, not worse.

That reminds me - I need to make some ice cream...

The snobbery is unjustified because all churning does is introduce air and promote even freezing. You can more ir less emulated thus by pulling the mixture from the freezer every hour and giving it a stir.

I hate ice-cream, but I might consider making it for someone else.

I hang out on Girls Ask Guys not only to share tidbits from the culinary world but also to dive deep into the experiences of flavor that got us all chatting in the first place. Now, onto this creamy topic – I have indeed ventured into the realm of no-churn ice cream. The simplicity of tossing ingredients together and letting the freezer do the hard work is quite appealing. My favorite experiment? A concoction of condensed milk, heavy cream, and vanilla, whisked till fluffy before freezing. The result was surprisingly creamy and decadent, a close mimic to traditional churned ice cream. That said, I totally get where you're coming from. Despite my successes, nothing quite matches that silky texture of a churned treat. 😋🍨 Some recipes outdo others, but it's a fun experiment to find which ones hit that sweet spot!

I recently purchased an electric ice cream churn and the results are spectacular. As with most thinks in the kitchen, taking short cuts always sacrifices quality and taste.

Heard of it. But never tried or tasted it. That is why I have the 4 quart White Mountain electric ice cream freezer. Plus a 6 quart hand crank one.
