    Want to make ice cream but don't have an ice cream machine? The good news is that you don't need an ice cream maker to get the amazing texture of homemade ice cream!

    With just a few base ingredients, you can make a variety of different no-churn ice cream flavors that is sure to please everyone.  Make this ice cream the day before you want to serve it and your favorite fruit pie will be turned into a cold, icy treat that's sure to be a hit!

    Ingredients

    • Blueberries - This recipe can be made with fresh or frozen blueberries. If using frozen blueberries, let them thaw before cooking to help them cook down easier with the sugar.
    • Sugar - Granulated sugar is added to the blueberries to make a thick syrup while it cooks down. Other sweeteners that can be used are honey, agave nectar, coconut sugar or brown sugar.
    • Heavy whipping cream - Make sure to whip the cream until if forms stiff peaks. This will give the ice cream a "churned" texture once it's frozen.
    • Sweetened condensed milk - The sweetened condensed milk is what is used to sweeten the ice cream. This is the only sweetener that you will add to the base mixture.
    • Vanilla extract - You will get a better flavor profile is you use real vanilla extract instead of imitation vanilla extract when making non-baked desserts. Imitation vanilla extract will work fine if that is what you have!
    • Graham crackers - Crush a handful of graham crackers into the layers to make this ice cream taste even more like blueberry pie!

    Step by step instructions

    This recipe comes together so easily in only a few steps!

    • In a heavy saucepan, cook blueberries down in sugar and a little cinnamon over medium-high heat, about 10-15 minutes. You'll want the blueberries to be soft but still have some texture. Let them cool down in the pan and then put them in the refrigerator for about an hour. (steps 1 & 2) They need to be completely cooled before incorporating them into the ice cream mixture.Process shots for making blueberry pie filling.

    • Place half of the cream mixture in a freezer-safe container. Dollop spoonfuls of the blueberry pie filling on top, sprinkle with crushed graham crackers and repeat the layering process with the second half of the ingredients. Use a knife to swirl the ice cream to create a marbled effect. (steps 5 & 6) Cover and freeze for a minimum of 4 hours or overnight.

    Take out of the freezer about 20 minutes before you plan to serve it so that it softens up and can scoop more easily. You'll see that it's rich and creamy, just like ice cream that's been churning all day in an ice cream maker!
