Vanilla Ice Cream Recipe - I halved recipe in this video:
https://anitacooks.com/recipe/perfect-vanilla-ice-cream/
The recipes in the included recipe book are very detailed and thorough, they list tools needed for the recipe, substitutions and tips.
First, I’ll make vanilla ice cream. Whole milk, heavy cream, sugar, vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.
In the third container, I’ll make a pineapple sorbet. The recipe book says to use about 3 cups of chopped pineapple. You can use just one fruit or a combination, like oranges and pineapples. Whatever fruit you use, make sure to cut into ½ inch pieces or smaller. I just cut a fresh pineapple yesterday and it was very sweet so it’ll be good for this recipe. For the best results, use very ripe fruit. Luckily I have exactly 3 cups of pineapple. Whatever fruit you use, make sure to press it down really well.
After 24 hours, the mixture is frozen solid. I’ll process the vanilla ice cream base.
Take the lid off and put the pint it in the outer container. Put the cover on to the right of center and move to the center to close. Put the container on the unit with the handle in the center and slide to the right, it’ll go up and you’ll hear that click.
Before I turn it on, take off your headphones because it’ll be really loud and I haven’t turned down the volume. Here’s the progress bar.
I’m turning down the volume for the rest of the video.
I’ll put the recipe link below this video.
Follow this recipe and make one of the best ice creams you’ve ever had, it’s just pure creamy vanilla with 4 ingredients.
Here you can see clearly how the paddle is shaving off each layer.
The pineapple looks like a frozen yellow block.
By the way, if you forget to put the paddle on the lid, the install light will flash and the unit won’t run the program.
Just for comparison sake, a Vitamix will be about as loud as a Ninja blender but Ninjas in g
eneral sound harsh like a high pitch whine.
This is the vanilla ice cream I made yesterday with chocolate chips.
Now I’ll make a coconut mango smoothie bowl. Frozen mango chunks to the max fill line. Coconut milk. This is the cream on top, make sure to mix it into the liquid below. Pour the coconut milk to just below the max line. Stir it up a little. Choose Smoothie bowl. That took 2.5 minutes. Because I overfilled the container a little bit, there were a few drips while the cycle was running. So make sure to fill just below the max line when using liquids and mixing with fruit. It’s smooth but you can see some of the coconut fat has not mixed in well. I’ll taste it. You can still feel some tiny bits of mango, it’s not completely smooth. Process this again if you want it perfectly smooth. I’m going to eat it just like this. With some blueberries, coconut and nuts. This is perfect for those who are lactose intolerant like me. I have been eating the vanilla which I shouldn’t be but it’s just too good. You can cover this, put it in the freezer and have it later. That’s what I’m doing because well, I’ve been eating everything I’ve made so far. My freezer is getting pretty full.
Next is chocolate ice cream but with non dairy milk. This is the dairy free coconut vanilla ice cream recipe from the included recipe book. Instead of coconut milk, I’m using oat milk, creamy full fat, extra creamy. You could use soy milk and there are recipes in the booklet using creamers. This is soy creamer that I use for coffee and it should make good ice cream.
Pour the oat milk into a measuring cup. Sugar or substitute honey. Vanilla extract. Cocoa powder to make it chocolate ice cream. Heat this for a minute or so to melt the sugar and whisk it well. Pour it into the pint container. Cover and put it in the freezer for 24 hours. I’m gonna have to eat this smoothie bowl now because there is no room in my freezer. After 24 hours, here is the chocolate base. I’ll run the ice cream program.That took 2 minutes.
To clean, wash the pints, paddle, container and lids by hand or on the top rack of your dishwasher. You can remove the rubber seal under the lid. Don’t forget to put it back after drying all the parts.
Wipe the base down with a damp cloth as well as the spindle under the head. If you spill something, turn the platform counterclockwise to go up and wipe it down.
