Honey-Vanilla Ice Cream


Without an ice cream maker. 

This recipe from Against All Grain was quite straightforward and worked well for me.  My only issue was that I had no blackberries on hand, and really just wanted vanilla anyway, so I decided not to bother making the blackberry syrup.  Without it, the honey flavour was far too strong for my taste.  The recipe made exactly 32oz of ice cream (I stored it in an empty Greek yogurt tub) and hadn't even eaten half of it after 6 weeks.  After taking the above picture, however, I topped the bowl with a few fresh raspberries, and that turned out to be perfect, cutting right through the overly-sweet honey.  So whether using blackberries or another berry, I'd call this a worthwhile recipe to try, but it needs that tart fresh aspect the recipe creator included.
