Ever wanted breakfast for dessert? How about a recipe for No-Churn Maple Syrup and Pancake Ice Cream, a recipe from the Willy Wonka side of my brain! The beauty is that you don’t need any special equipment or pre-freeze any bowls to enjoy this delicious treat. A beautiful maple syrup-rippled creamy base with syrup-soaked chunks of thick pancakes, perfect for a fun addition to a brunch!
The ice cream only takes 4 ingredients to make and less than 15 minutes to bring together, you just need a small amount of patience to allow the ice cream to freeze.
I’ve made this recipe even easier by using shop-bought pancakes, I know, I was feeling lazy but wanted something delicious. If you want to make your own, then you can use this American Pancake recipe to make them yourself. You want to use thick fluffy pancakes rather than thin crepe-style pancakes as you want them to soak up the maple syrup before being folded into the cream base.
For the maple syrup you want to get the best you can afford as the flavour is the main element of the ice cream base along with the cream and condensed milk. You want to avoid the maple syrup-flavoured golden syrup as you don’t get the true maple syrup flavour and more golden syrup coming through.
