Ingredients

- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 500 milliliters whipping cream
- 250 milliliters skim milk

Directions
Step 1
In a small saucepan, combine 200 grams of frozen blueberries, 50 grams of granulated sugar, and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice.
Step 2
Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the blueberries have released their juices and the sugar has dissolved, about 5 minutes.
Step 3
Remove from heat and allow the blueberry mixture to cool. Once cooled, blend it into a smooth puree and set aside.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 60 grams of vanilla protein powder, 500 milliliters of whipping cream, 250 milliliters of skim milk, 200 grams of unsweetened Greek yogurt, and 50 grams of honey until well combined.
Step 5
Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the ice cream mixture and whisk until smooth.
Step 6
Pour the ice cream base into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
Step 7
In a freezer-safe container, alternate layers of the churned ice cream and blueberry puree, gently swirling with a knife to create a marbled effect.
Step 8
Cover the container and freeze for at least 4 hours or until the ice cream is firm.
Step 9
Serve the high protein blueberry swirl ice cream scooped into bowls or cones, and enjoy!
