I love this vanilla bean ice cream on top of a cinnamon waffle, healthy brownies, or using chocolate chip cookies for a homemade ice cream sandwich! Everyone knows I am a fiend for ice cream and this flavor has always been my favorite! Needless to say, this tub of ice cream did not even last a week in my house. Sorry, not sorry.

Frequently asked questions

How do I store my homemade ice cream?

Store in an airtight container in your freezer.

Can I make this without vanilla beans?

If you do not have any beans, not to fret! just use 2 tsp of vanilla extract in the recipe.

What if I don't have a powdered sweetener?

You can easily powder whatever sweetener you do have on hand using either a blender or a coffee bean grinder - I have had to do this a lot.

Can I eat this as soon as it is finished in the ice cream maker?

Absolutely! The texture will be more of a soft serve ice cream and very yummy! Once it has settled in your freezer the texture is more like an old fashion ice cream.

Why should I put in vodka?

Vodka will keep your homemade ice cream from freezing solid when it is in your freezer, so you can still scoop it! If you don't want to use vodka, just leave your ice cream out on the counter for about 10-15 minutes before scooping.

Instructions to make Healthy Vanilla Bean Ice Cream:

1. In a bowl, whisk together all of your ingredients until all incorporated together. If using vanilla bean, open one pod and scrape out vanilla beans into bowl.
2. Make your ice cream as directed from your ice cream maker. I used a kitchen aid mixer ice cream bowl and mixed for 25 minutes.
3. Store in an airtight container in your freezer - enjoy!
