If you want to make sure that your ice cream is as delicious and healthy as possible, making your own is your best bet. Making homemade ice cream is no rocket science, and it’s one of the easiest desserts to master—as long as you avoid these common mistakes that most beginners make.
Low in Fat
Most people who are trying to put a healthy twist on ice cream tend to make it fat-free or low-fat, but this usually doesn’t work. If you want to switch to low-fat or skim milk, keep in mind your ice cream won’t have the creamy texture that you’re trying to achieve, and it will take much more time to freeze it.
Mixing Too Much
If you’re trying to speed up your ice cream-making process, you might try to do it by over-mixing your ice cream, but this trick never works. Instead of speeding up the process, over-mixing will lead to icy texture, and your ice cream will never reach its optimal texture without enough time spent in the freezer.
Warm Bowls
You should prep your bowls or ice cream maker properly because you’ll struggle to make this dessert if they’re still warm. Place your bowl inside the freezer and let it cool down for a bit before starting to prepare ice cream inside it.
