No Churn Blackberry Ice-Cream

Sometimes the sweetest recipes come with a story, and this blackberry ice-cream is exactly that. I call it my “friendship ice cream” because it started with a jar of homemade blackberry jam from a friend. My neighbors were my taste-testers. Inspired by Prue Leith from the Great British Baking Show, I’m sharing this easy no-churn ice cream so you can whip it up in just minutes and enjoy it with your own friends and family.

Ingredients Breakdown

• Heavy cream: The base of this recipe—when whipped, it creates the light and creamy texture without needing an ice cream machine.
• Blackberry jam: Use homemade or your favorite store-bought brand. Start with ½ cup blended into the cream, and save another ½ cup to swirl in for ribbons of fruity flavor.
• Salt: Just a pinch to balance the sweetness and bring out the bright berry flavor.
• Vanilla extract: Adds depth and warmth, rounding out the fruity notes of the blackberries.

How to Make Blackberry Ice Cream with No Machine

• In a mixing bowl, combine blackberry jam, a pinch of salt, vanilla extract, and heavy cream.
• Using a KitchenAid mixer, whisk on level 4 for about 1 ½ minutes until soft peaks form. If using a hand mixer, whisk for about 3 minutes.
• Once whipped, gently fold in any remaining jam to create swirls.
• Freeze at least 6 hours and enjoy!

Blackberry Ice-Cream Tips and Tricks

1. Be careful not to over-whip—otherwise, the cream will turn into a buttercream-like texture.
2. Transfer to a silicone ice cream tub or a bread pan. If using a bread pan, cover tightly with cling wrap, making sure the wrap touches the surface to prevent ice crystals.
   Silicone tubs are best for easy scooping, but a bread pan works well if wrapped tightly.
3. Before serving, let the ice cream sit on the counter for 5–10 minutes to soften slightly for easy scooping.
4. For a stronger berry flavor, add more jam swirls before freezing.
5. This recipe is endlessly adaptable—try it with strawberry, raspberry, or even peach jam!
