If you haven’t roasted strawberries before, this is a great time to try it! Creamy strawberry ice cream made with roasted berries is a treat like nothing you can buy at the stores.
Homemade strawberry ice creams have very little in common with any of the commercial strawberry ice creams you’ve likely tried in the past. So, let this be your reminder to churn a batch this summer and guarantee smiles from everyone.
Roasted Strawberry Ice Cream
To make this ice cream, you’ll start by scattering some fresh berries on a baking sheet, (I typically use the less-than-perfect berries for recipes like this), drizzle them with a tiny bit of maple syrup or lightly sprinkle with sugar, and pop them in the oven for a while. You don’t need to babysit them, just give them a stir midway through the roasting time.
When the berries have softened and released their juices, you’ll transfer them to the blender along with any juices. Add some milk and puree until smooth. Then just add the remaining ingredients, pulse a few times to combine, and pour the mixture into your ice cream maker.
The most popular question I get is whether it’s possible to make ice cream without a machine. The answer is YES. You can make ice cream without a machine. Find the full directions here!

These are my favorite inexpensive containers for storing ice cream. They’re perfect for gifting (who doesn’t love homemade ice cream?) storage, re-using, etc. I write the flavors on the lids with a sharpie and it washes off with dish soap.
I have more ice cream scoops than I can keep track of at this point and I definitely play favorites. This ice cream scoop does the best job ever of cutting through firm ice cream and still delivers a pretty scoop. It gets bonus points for being one of the least expensive scoops I own as well.
