A simple and delicious no-churn ice cream recipe featuring roasted strawberries that bring out a deep, caramelized flavor, combined with whipped cream and sweetened condensed milk for a creamy homemade dessert.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ pounds fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream, chilled
  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Toss the hulled and halved strawberries with granulated sugar and fresh lemon juice. Spread evenly on the baking sheet.
  3. Roast the strawberries for 20–25 minutes until softened and caramelized but not mushy.
  4. Remove from oven and let the strawberries cool completely in the pan (about 30 minutes).
  5. While the strawberries cool, whip the chilled heavy cream on medium-high speed until medium-stiff peaks form (3-5 minutes).
  6. Gently fold the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract into the whipped cream.
  7. Fold in the cooled roasted strawberries and their juices gently but thoroughly.
  8. Transfer the mixture to a freezer-safe container, spread evenly, and press parchment paper on the surface to prevent ice crystals. Cover with lid or plastic wrap.
  9. Freeze for at least 4 hours or overnight until firm but scoopable. Let sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before serving if too hard.

Notes

If strawberries release too much juice during roasting, drain some before folding in to avoid watery texture. Press parchment paper on the surface before freezing to prevent ice crystals. Stirring the ice cream once or twice during freezing can create a creamier texture but is optional. Let roasted strawberries cool completely before folding into cream to avoid melting it.
