This fresh blueberry ice cream is the perfect way to enjoy those fresh blueberries this season. Not only is it delicious but it is pretty !
My husband declared this, “the BEST ice cream you have ever made!” This comment was not made once but made multiple times each time he enjoyed his bowl full of fresh blueberry ice cream.
Don’t just take his word for it, try it because this really is the best ice cream I’ve ever made and I’ve made a lot of ice cream.
Can I use frozen blueberries?
Earlier in the day I had gone to a local blueberry farm and picked a bucket full of fresh blueberries to use but I am sure you could also use frozen but you’ll get a fresher flavor with fresh berries of course!
How to Make Blueberry Ice Cream
What Kind of Ice Cream Maker Do you Use?
I made the ice cream in my 2 qt. Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker.
I love storing my ice cream in this container. Keeps it fresh in the freezer.
Not only is this delicious but it is so darn pretty! Totally love the color.

Hi I would like to ask whether what is half and half?
Is it half milk and half whipping cream?
Then if it’s half milk then I have to add another one more cup of milk too?
Is that a same milk?
Please advise. Thank you.
Leigh Anne Wilkes says
Half and half is half whole milk and half heavy whipping cream. You can substitute it out for more milk and more whipping cream but for some reason I don’t think the recipe tastes quite as good but it still works.
