For a richer flavor, use Greek yogurt and allow to drain for a thicker consistency. If you don't have an ice cream maker, you can still make this! Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container and freeze for 3-4 hours, stirring every 30 minutes to break up ice crystals. For a natural orange flavor boost, add the zest of one orange to the half-and-half mixture before whisking.

Jun 4, 2025This recipe is a lifesaver! My kids adore it, and it's so much healthier than store-bought ice cream.

Jun 2, 2025Could I use regular milk instead of half-and-half? It will work, but the texture won't be as creamy. Half-and-half is really the way to go!
