Ingredients
- 2 cups (diced) Ripe papaya
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Whole milk
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Peel and deseed the ripe papaya, then dice it into small cubes to measure 2 cups.
Step 2
In a blender, combine the diced papaya, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Blend until completely smooth.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the papaya puree, heavy cream, and whole milk. Stir well until the mixture is fully incorporated.
Step 4
If you have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into the machine and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions until the ice cream achieves a soft-serve consistency. Then transfer it to an airtight container and freeze for at least 3-4 hours for a firmer texture.
Step 5
If you don’t have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow, freezer-safe container. Freeze for 30 minutes, then stir vigorously with a fork to break up ice crystals. Repeat this process every 30 minutes for 3-4 hours until the ice cream is creamy and fully frozen.
Step 6
Once frozen, scoop the ice cream into bowls or cones and serve immediately. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 1 week.
