Blueberry Bliss Ice Cream: A Creamy Delight
Welcome back to the blog, dear food enthusiasts! Today, I’m excited to share a recipe that’s perfect for cooling down on those warm, sunny days—Blueberry Bliss Ice Cream. This recipe not only promises a deliciously creamy treat but also delivers a vibrant burst of blueberry flavor in every spoonful. Let’s dive into the simple steps to make this delightful ice cream using a Ninja Creami.
Ingredients:
- 1 1/4 cups blueberry pie filling
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons sugar (optional)
Directions:
- Prepare the Mixture: In a Ninja Creami pint container, combine the blueberry pie filling, milk, and heavy cream. Stir these together thoroughly to ensure a consistent mixture. For those who prefer an even smoother texture, an immersion blender is an excellent tool to use.
- Adjust the Sweetness: Taste your mixture. If you find it needs a bit more sweetness, add the optional sugar. Remember, the perceived sweetness will decrease slightly once the ice cream is frozen.
- Freeze: Secure the lid on the container and place it on a level surface in your freezer. Let it freeze solid for at least 24 hours to ensure the best texture.
- Churn: Once frozen, remove the pint from the freezer and take off the lid. Place the container into the Ninja Creami’s outer bowl and secure it. Lock the bowl into your Ninja Creami machine and press the Ice Cream button to start the churning cycle.
- Check and Re-spin: After the cycle is complete, check the texture of the ice cream. If it appears crumbly, don’t worry! Simply use the Re-spin function. If it still isn’t smooth, add a tablespoon of milk and Re-spin to achieve that perfect creamy consistency.
