A berry crisp with ice cream is one of my favorite summer desserts.  Berry Crisp Ice Cream is the perfect way to get it all in one.

Berry Crisp Ice Cream

Fresh berries are one of my favorite things about summer, especially here in Oregon where we have so many to choose from. I love having my own little berry patch in my backyard – we’ve got strawberries, marionberries and blueberries. Berry crisps is one of our favorite things to do with our summer berry harvest. Yummy berries topped with a crunchy crisp topping.  No berry crisp is complete though without ice cream.

Well, today’s recipe has taken those two things – berry crisp and ice cream and put it all into one dessert.  It is one stop shopping. Can I just tell you, this berry crisp ice cream is amazing!!!

Berry Crisp Ice Cream

Ingredients Needed

  • Whole milk
  • Half and Half
  • Heavy Cream
  • Sugar
  • Salt
  • Vanilla, use pure vanilla extract
  • Berries, I used half blackberry and half raspberry
  • Butter. I use salted butter
  • Flour
  • Brown sugar
  • Old fashioned oats, not quick oats

What is Half and Half?

It is a combination of half milk and half whipping cream.

If you can’t get half and half where you live you can replace the amount with half milk and half whipping cream.

How to Make Berry Crisp Ice Cream

  • Mix together milks, sugar, salt and vanilla.
  • Pour all ingredients intoa 2 qt. ice cream maker.
  • Follow manufacturer’s directions.

While the ice cream was churning, make your berry syrup.

How to Make Berry Syrup

  • Add berries and sugar into a sauce pan and bring to a boil.
  • Boil for about 8-10 minutes, smashing the berries to help break them down.
  • Cool slightly and then push through a fine mesh strainer.
  • Add back in half the seeds if desired.

How to Make Streusel Topping

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Mix all streusel ingredients except for oats together using a pastry blender or fingers to work in butter.
  • Mixture will resemble small pebbles.
  • Add in oats and stir to combine
  • Spread on baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes or until it begins to brown. Stir several times to prevent burning.
Berry Crisp Ice Cream
  • Bake for about 30 minutes or until toasted and browned.  Stir several times during baking so it doesn’t burn.  Allow it to cool. Try not to eat it all before you get it into the ice cream!
Berry Crisp Ice Cream
  • Layer the half ice cream, half the cooled syrup and half the crumble topping into an insulated freezer container, then repeat.  Put it in the freezer and allow it to harden up.

Then all you have left to do is dish yourself up a big bowl full of this berry goodness. Grab a spoon and dig in.

It’s the perfect combination of ice cream, berry and crunchy streusel topping.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use frozen berries for berry crisp ice cream?

Fresh or frozen berries will work. I recommend you thaw and drain the frozen berries first.

How long will homemade ice cream last in the freezer?

Stored in an airtight, insulated ice cream container it will last for a couple of weeks.

Do I have to use an ice cream maker?

This homemade ice cream recipe is designed to be made in an ice cream maker and is not meant to be a no churn ice cream.

What kind of ice cream maker do you use?

I use a Cuisinart 2 qt. ice cream maker. I then transfer the ice cream into this insulated ice cream container to let the ice cream harden up.

  • Apple Crisp
  • Small Batch Apple Crisp for Two
  • Berry Crisp

    This ice cream is amazing! Your vanilla ice cream base has become my go to ice cream as well. I do make a couple changes though. I reduced the sugar to 1c., the vanilla to 2 tsp, and I add 1/2 c. powdered milk to add to the creaminess. Sheer perfection.

    Your post made me go buy some cream and try my new ice cream maker. i think it’s the same Cuisinart you use. I would love some tips on getting a nice consistency to the ice cream.

      Marm, Have you tried some ice cream and didn’t like the texture? The recipe you are using will effect the texture a lot.
