Ingredients

To create this luscious ice cream, you’ll need:

2 cups of heavy cream
1 cup of whole milk

A pinch of salt

Steps to Sweet Success

1. Blend It All Up

Let’s get started! Grab your blender and toss in those delightful bread cubes. Add the heavy cream, whole milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and a sprinkle of salt. Blend everything together until the mixture is super smooth and creamy. It’s like a little magic moment in your kitchen!

2. Chill, Baby, Chill

Pour the blended mixture into a bowl, cover it with plastic wrap, and pop it into the fridge for at least 2 hours. This magic step helps the flavors develop and gives your ice cream that smooth texture we all crave.

3. Churn It Up!

After your mixture has chilled, take it out and pour it into your ice cream maker. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to churn it until it reaches that perfect creamy consistency. Honestly, the sound of the churning is music to my ears—it’s like a sweet symphony of dessert coming together! 🎶

4. Freeze for Perfection

Transfer your ice cream to an airtight container and freeze it for at least 4 hours. I know, I know—waiting is the hardest part, but trust me, it’s worth it!

Cooking Tips

Old Bread? No Problem! Got some bread lying around that’s a bit stale? Perfect! Stale bread works wonders in this recipe, lending flavor and texture without any waste.
Flavor Variations: Feeling adventurous? You can stir in some chocolate chips, nuts, or even a swirl of caramel before the freezing step!
Don’t Panic! If your mixture looks a bit lumpy post-blending, that’s totally normal. It’s all part of the charm of homemade ice cream!

FAQs

Can I substitute whole milk in this recipe?
Absolutely! You can use almond milk or even coconut milk for a dairy-free version—just keep in mind that this may alter the flavor slightly.
