Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 cup passion fruit pulp
- 2 cups heavy cream (473 milliliters)
- 1 cup whole milk (237 milliliters)
- 1 cup sugar (200 grams)
Flavor Enhancers:
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (5 milliliters)
Instructions
- Craft a smooth, velvety base by vigorously whisking heavy cream, whole milk, and sugar in a large mixing bowl until the sugar particles completely melt and integrate.
- Introduce passion fruit pulp, infusing the mixture with its vibrant tropical essence, and incorporate vanilla extract and a delicate sprinkle of salt to enhance the overall flavor profile.
- Transfer the silky liquid into an ice cream maker, allowing the machine to transform the mixture into a luscious, aerated texture through consistent churning for approximately 20-30 minutes.
- Carefully decant the freshly churned, soft-serve consistency ice cream into a sealed, freezer-safe container, ensuring minimal air exposure.
- Place the container in the freezer, allowing the ice cream to solidify and develop its rich, creamy structure for a minimum of 4 hours.
- When ready to indulge, retrieve the container and use a chilled scoop to create perfect, rounded servings of this tangy, tropical-inspired dessert.
Notes
- Use fresh, ripe passion fruits for the most intense and vibrant flavor, selecting fruits that feel heavy and have a slight give when gently squeezed.
- Strain the passion fruit pulp if you prefer a smoother texture without seeds, but the seeds can add delightful crunch and authentic tropical character.
- Adjust sugar levels based on the natural tartness of your passion fruits, tasting the mixture before churning to ensure perfect sweetness balance.
- For a dairy-free version, replace heavy cream and whole milk with coconut milk or almond milk, which complement the tropical passion fruit flavor beautifully.
