Ingredients

  • 1 pint blueberries
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • Pinch salt
  • ½ cup graham cracker crumbs

Instructions

  • Add blueberries and sugar to a medium sized saucepan and bring to boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and continue to cook until the blueberries begin to soften and release their juices, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
  • When the blueberries have cooled to the touch, line a 9×5 loaf pan with parchment paper or wax paper.
  • In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Fold in the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract and salt.
  • Add the graham cracker crumbs and blueberry puree and stir 3-4 times to incorporate, making sure not to over-stir.
  • Pour the mixture into prepared pan and freeze for 4 hours or more.
  • Allow the ice cream to thaw for 5 minutes at room temperature before scooping and serving.
