Ingredients

    Directions

    This no‑churn cantaloupe ice cream has a delicious, refreshing flavor that comes directly from the fruit. The texture is smooth and creamy, with a hint of vanilla that works perfectly with the cantaloupe. It’s an easy, cool dessert with a clear, simple flavor that feels calm, creamy, and pleasantly refreshing from the first spoonful to the last.

    Step1

    In a blender, combine 3 cups of diced cantaloupe, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice.

    Step2

    Blend on high until the mixture is completely smooth, then chill it for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator until very cold.

    Step3

    In a large bowl, combine 1 can (14 ounces) of sweetened condensed milk and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Set aside.

    Step4

    In another large mixing bowl, whip 2 cups of heavy whipping cream with a stand mixer or electric hand mixer until stiff peaks form.

    Step5

    Stir the chilled cantaloupe purée into the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla mixture, blending gently until the base is smooth and fully combined.

    Step6

    Gently fold the cantaloupe mixture into the whipped cream, taking care to keep the mixture light and airy as it comes together.

    Step7

    Pour the ice cream mixture into an 8x8 or 9x9 freezer‑safe pan, smoothing the top, and freeze for several hours—or preferably overnight—until fully set and scoopable.

    Step8

    Scoop and serve!

    Step9

    Enjoy!
