Easy Creamy Strawberry Ice Cream uses regular fresh ingredients to make a creamy ice cream bursting with strawberries. Very easy homemade recipe.
Easy Strawberry Ice Cream! This is so yummy! It's egg free, creamy and jam packed with strawberries.
I have made the ice cream in my ice cream machine, but if you don't have one, don't worry. I've added some instructions at the end if you want to make the ice cream without a machine.
This is delicious served just as it is, on its own, and of course you can serve it in an ice cream cone or alongside a lovely pie. Whichever way you choose to eat this I am sure you will love it!
For this recipe, I needed to add some extra sugar in the form of honey, for my taste. My strawberries, although very red and ripe, weren't as sweet as I had been expecting, so I advise you to have a little taste when you are mixing so you know whether to add a little extra sweetness to your liking.

How to make ice cream without an ice cream maker
If you do not have an ice cream machine, you can place the mixture (in its mixing bowl) in the freezer and after 2 hours, use an electric whisk and mix it.
Return to the freezer for another 2 hours, then repeat once more with the electric mix, before finally returning to the freezer until completely set.
