Grandma’s Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream
Grandma’s Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream is so easy and makes for a special treat. A little break from the apples and carrots that we usually have. We all deserve a treat now and then right?
Sometimes we all just need a little ice cream. One of my favorite ways to show my kids I love them is by making a fun treat for after school.
We got this recipe from my husbands Grandma and it’s a family favorite. Grandma’s Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream is so easy and makes for a special treat. A little break from the apples and carrots that we usually have. We all deserve a treat now and then right?
I love using Horizon Organic Milk, whipping cream and eggs for my ice cream. Organic dairy just tastes so much better in my opinion.
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 Tablespoon vanilla
- 1 pinch of salt
- 3 cups of milk
- 3 cups of whipping cream
- Beat eggs and sugar together. Add in vanilla and salt. Then add the milk and beat. Last, add in the whipping cream and whip.
- Pour into ice cream machine and listen for it to finish.
I love my ice cream machine too. It has the freezer bowls to you can freeze them and have ice cream anytime you’re ready.

How much does this recipe make?
About a gallon
No cooking eggs?
We never cooked egg based ice cream mixture when I was a child. But now I think cooking is a good idea. Things change, no one got sick 70 years ago but why take a chance now.
how do i cook the eggs?? does the whole mixture get cooked?
You don’t cook the eggs. Most ice creams are made this way. There are some cooked ice creams but this one isn’t. I promise you don’t even taste the eggs in it. Just delicious creamy vanilla ice cream.
Do you heat it before you put it into the ice cream machine
No just add it to the ice cream freezer.
Egg yolks only? I find it odd for white too.
What if you dont have whipping cream what yo put then
The whipping cream is needed to make it actual ice cream. You could try to substitute with milk but it won’t be as creamy.
How long do you have to whip?
Looking tasty. Thank you so much for the recipe.
GOT MY NEW ICE CREAM MAKER 3 weeks ago, this will be the fourth different recipe I,ve tried out. I,ll let ya know soon how it turned out.
My great granny made this every Sunday when I was a kid. My brother & I would take turns cranking the handle while papa kept the ice & rock salt going. She just used milk & added a mashed banana. I made a few tweaks to this. Half n half instead of whipping cream. I forgot to cut back on the sugar, since my banana was very ripe so I added an extra cup of milk, I also tempered the eggs, I donât want to take chances these days. It tasted just like hers.
