Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups full-fat cottage cheese Do not use low-fat for best results.
  • 1.5 cups frozen strawberries
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup Or honey. Adjust to taste.
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch salt

Equipment

  • 1 High-Speed Blender A food processor also works.
  • 1 Loaf Pan or Freezer-Safe Container

Method
 

  1. Combine cottage cheese, frozen strawberries, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt in a high-speed blender. Blend on high for 60-90 seconds until completely smooth, scraping down the sides as needed.
  2. Pour the mixture into a loaf pan or freezer-safe container. Cover tightly and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
  3. Let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly before scooping and serving.

Notes

For the creamiest texture: Make sure you use full-fat cottage cheese and blend the mixture until it is perfectly silky smooth.
Storage: Store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. Let it soften on the counter before serving for best results.
