Note

For best results, use ripe but firm fruit to ensure a smooth puree without excess wateriness.

If you do not have an ice cream maker, you can freeze the mixture in a shallow container, stirring every 30 minutes with a fork to break up ice crystals until firm.

Store leftover ice cream in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. Let it sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before scooping for easier serving.

You can adjust the sweetness by adding more or less Equal based on the natural sweetness of your fruit.

For a thicker consistency, you can add a tablespoon of cornstarch mixed with a little cold water to the mixture before chilling, though the buttermilk base is naturally lighter.
