Blueberry Lavender Swirl
Make this while the ice cream is churning.
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- 2–3 tablespoons coconut sugar
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 tablespoon lavender syrup
- Pinch of sea salt
Instructions
- Add the blueberry creamer, whole milk, cream cheese, and blue spirulina powder
- A medium saucepan. Warm over medium heat until steaming, but do not boil.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks with a pinch of sea salt until smooth.
- Slowly pour about ½ cup of the warm milk mixture into the egg yolks while whisking constantly to temper the eggs.
- Pour the tempered egg mixture back into the saucepan.
- Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the custard reaches 170–175°F or coats the back of a spoon.
- Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
- Pour the mixture into a bowl (with a lid).
- Refrigerate the custard for at least 4 hours, or until completely chilled.
- Once chilled, pour the custard into your ice cream maker and churn according to the machine’s directions.
Blueberry Lavender Swirl Instructions
- Add the blueberries, coconut sugar, water, lavender syrup, and sea salt to a small saucepan.
- Cook over medium heat for 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the blueberries soften and begin to burst.
- Gently press the blueberries with the back of a fork to release more juice.
- Pour the warm blueberry mixture into a blender and blend until smooth, creating a syrup-like consistency.
- Let the blueberry syrup cool before adding it to the ice cream.
Add the Swirl
- Once the ice cream has finished churning, spoon half of it into a freezer-safe container.
- Drizzle a layer of the cooled blueberry syrup over the ice cream.
- Repeat with more ice cream and more blueberry syrup until all the ice cream is layered.
- Use a butter knife or skewer to make 2–3 gentle figure-eight swirls through the ice cream. Do not overmix.
- Freeze for 2–4 hours, or until firm enough to scoop.
