Making homemade ice cream can be an exciting activity that keeps kids occupied for hours as they watch their liquid mixture transform into delectable frozen treats right before their eyes! Dash makes an excellent mini ice cream maker perfect for smaller homes.
This ice cream recipe uses strawberries, sugar, and vanilla for an easy yet delectable dessert!
Strawberry
Strawberry ice cream is one of the most iconic flavors. Making it is simple and full of fresh, sweet strawberries! In a large bowl, combine strawberries with some sugar and lemon juice before leaving them sit for 15-20 minutes so their juices release and soften a bit before mashing with either a potato masher or fork to create interesting textures. Leave some chunky pieces for added depth of texture!
Add the remaining ingredients to the strawberry mixture and blend well. Transfer this to the freezer bowl of an ice cream maker, following its manufacturer’s instructions, until frozen (this could take anywhere from two hours up to several days in your freezer). Top your ice cream off with fresh strawberry slices as desired before serving it up; this ice cream should keep well for one week in your freezer!
Banana
This simple dash ice cream maker recipe only needs bananas as the main ingredient to create a delectably creamy vegan nice cream that serves as the foundation of many delicious flavors. Simply pulse ripe, peeled and frozen banana chunks through your blender or food processor until the texture resembles soft serve ice cream.

Lavender Honey
Lavender and honey make for an irresistibly relaxing combination, pairing perfectly to help improve sleep and reduce stress while honey can lower blood pressure, heart rate and ease allergy symptoms.
Malek uses Square One botanical spirit (a 90-proof rye infused with eight different herbs and citrus peels) with homemade lavender honey syrup and heavy cream for this recipe. He dry shakes these ingredients without any ice before gradually adding frozen cubes before straining into chilled coupe glasses garnished with several lavender blossoms.
Stir together heavy cream, milk and honey in a medium saucepan until they begin to bubble slowly over low heat, taking care not to allow the mixture to boil. Stir the mixture and strain out any lavender flowers if desired before straining out into an attractive serving dish.
Peach
At their best, peaches make an easy and delicious treat that doesn’t require any churning at all! Instead, this recipe uses eggs to form a custard base that delivers rich mouthfeel and delicious flavor.
This recipe is both easy and quick, making it the ideal way to use up leftover peaches. Make sure that only top quality fruit is used and use an easy peeling technique such as immersing them for 30 seconds in boiling water before removing and cooling as soon as possible.
Once the mixture has cooled, use your ice cream maker to churn until thick and the consistency of soft serve ice cream. Fold in any reserved peaches you have saved, and freeze until firm; this should take at least 6 hours and ideally overnight.
