I love summers, the season of fruity sweetness. The sweet soothing aroma of plum and juicy texture with dark and tarty skin is mystic deliciousness. The fresh fully ripened fruit should be enjoyed in every possible way whether it be plum jam or plum drinks. And this ice cream is truly indulgent. And what makes it even special is that my very picky son also loves it. It is very creamy and has no icicles just a very intense flavor.
The secret to this recipe!
The secret to easy, no-churn plum ice cream is sweet and juicy fresh plums. I slightly cooked these on the stove to it a roasted flavor and darker color. You could bake it too but I find the stove method quicker and easier.
Ingredients
Plum: Select your fruit carefully! Fully ripened sweet plums that have dark skin and reddish flesh are best for any plum recipe. There are many varieties of plums ranging from Japanese plums to black, Red, Italian, Indian, and European plums. So you might need to adjust this recipe according to the plum variety you have in hand. If your fruit is naturally very sweet, consider reducing condensed milk in the recipe by 2-3 tablespoons.

The color of ice cream also depends on the color of the fruit’s skin and flesh and ranges from red to deep maroon. Cream: Use full-fat heavy cream: Use chilled cream that doubles very well in volume and gets stiff peaks. Condensed milk Lemon Juice
How to make it?
Tips
Take your ice cream out of the freezer 15 minutes before serving so ice cream is easily scoopable. You can also add biscuit chunks of white chocolate chips if you like some texture in your ice cream.
Variations
Swirl ice cream: If you like swirls in your ice cream, add 1 teaspoon of vanilla essence to the base of the cream and condensed milk. Transfer half of the ice cream base to the container. Add half of the plum syrup with the help of a spoon. Put dollops of plum syrup all over the container. Add the remaining vanilla ice cream base and add the remaining plum syrup by spoon. Make a few swirls with the help of a stick and freeze. Chunky ice cream: If you wish to make chunky plum ice cream. Skip the step of blending the plums and cook them. Then just break the cooked soft plums with the help of a spatula. Follow the rest of the step as it is. The skin of a plum tastes similar to fruit leather in the ice cream and tastes really yummy.
