What is the Difference Between Churn and No-churn Ice Cream?
Churned ice cream, made traditionally, involves an ice cream maker that simultaneously freezes and churns the mixture, incorporating air and preventing large ice crystal formation, resulting in a smooth texture.
While no-churn ice cream, eliminates the need for an ice cream maker by incorporating air through ingredients like whipped cream or condensed milk. The result is usually a denser, creamier ice cream with a smooth texture.

Ingredients
- Sweetened Condensed Milk: this is what sweetens the ice cream and makes it super creamy.
- This cannot be replaced for something like sugar, as it’s what makes this ice cream possible as a no-churn. Without it, the ice cream is likely going to crystallize.
- There is a vegan version made from oat milk that may work but I have not tested it.
- Heavy Whipping Cream: this gets whipped into fresh whipped cream and makes the ice cream super light and fluffy
- To make this dairy free, use coconut cream, it may alter the flavor a little but I think coconut would pair well with mango.
- Mango: I used 2 large ripe mangoes
- If your mangos aren’t as ripe, they might be more dry and may require a little extra liquid. Just add an extra ounce of lime juice or water.
- Lime Juice: 1 medium lime should get you the 2 ounces needed.
- Salt: I like to add a little salt to any dessert to cut the sweetness a little.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Place the mango and lime juice in the food processor or blender and pulse on high.
- If your mangoes aren’t as ripe, they might be more dry and may require a little extra liquid. Just add an extra ounce of lime juice or water.
Step 2: Whip the cream until it forms stiff peaks.
Step 3: Add Sweetened condensed and mango puree into the heavy whipping cream, mixing just until it’s combined. Leave about a third of the puree for later.
Step 4: Spread half of the ice cream into a deep pan (I used an 8×3″ round pan but a loaf pan also works).
Step 5: Drop mango puree globs on top of the ice cream and use a knife to swirl it back and forth.
Step 6: Repeat with the second half of ice cream and mango puree.
Step 7: Freeze – cover with a lid, foil or plastic wrap and freeze for at least 8 hours or overnight. Remove from the freezer about 10 minutes before serving.
