Instructions
-
Make the Ice Cream Base:
Whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract until smooth. Spread the mixture evenly into a loaf pan or container. -
Prepare the Blueberry Swirl:
In a saucepan, heat blueberries and sugar over medium heat. In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with water and lemon juice to make a slurry. Add this slurry to the blueberries and cook, stirring, until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Chill until cool. -
Make the Cinnamon Crumble:
Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Mix brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon in a bowl. Add cold cubed butter and mix until crumbly. Stir in oats. Spread crumble on a baking sheet and bake 10–12 minutes until golden. Let cool. -
Assemble the Ice Cream:
Spread the ice cream base in the container. Drop spoonfuls of blueberry sauce over the top and swirl gently with a knife. Sprinkle the cinnamon crumble evenly on top. Cover and freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight until firm.
Notes
- For a smoother swirl, strain the blueberry sauce before adding it to the ice cream base.
- Store crumble separately if you want it crunchy at serving time.
- Best enjoyed within one week for freshness.
