You DON’T NEED AN ICE-CREAM MAKER FOR THIS RECIPE!!!!!
Whaaaaat?
So happy to have found the perfect blend of smooth creamy ice-cream and no ice-cream machine needed.
Because, sometimes I forget to put the ice-cream bowl in the freezer 24 hours in advance.
Then I’m left high and dry without my magic ice-cream maker.
Oh well!
That’s what metal bowls, a good silicone spatula, and hands are for, right?
how to make vanilla ice-cream
If you have an ice-cream maker you can totally make it in that instead!
Whatever you feel like, do it!
As long as it includes lots and lots of vanilla ice-cream.
This is the ice-cream maker I have.
If you’re going all-out-old-fashion-elbow-grease with me on this one, these spatulas are seriously a life saver!
I have tried making ice-cream with different mixing utensils, but these definitely beat all.

2-4 cups of maple syrup can’t be right?
Hi Sarah, that was supposed to be tablespoons. Haha, thank you for pointing that out. 🙂 That would be REALLLY sweet! 🙂
Do you mean use both cans fully or just the cream on top when chilled? Thanks.
Hi Alex, I use both cans fully.
Hi (: can the dates be substituted? With something other than a different fruit?
Hi Georgia, bananas would work instead of dates! 🙂 Enjoy!
Will it work adding cocoa powder?
That should work Aly, but it might need more sweetener.
About how long does this need to freeze? Several hours?
Hi Caroline, it really depends on your freezer and where in the freezer it’s located, but I would say plan on 1-3 hours.
How do you store?
Hi Molly, I just store it in a plastic tub in the freezer.
Love the simplicity of this! Used date paste and a few extra dashes of cinnamon. Turned out great! Nice side for pumpkin pie…YUM!
Great to hear Danielle!
My kids hate the coconut arouma…
What can replace it?
Thanks
Hi Hillel, oat milk would probably be the best substitute since it’s rich and creamy, if you don’t want to use coconut.
