Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons matcha powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar and matcha powder. Whisk together until the matcha is evenly dispersed throughout the sugar, breaking up any clumps.
In a separate large bowl, combine the whole milk, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and salt. Whisk together until well combined.
Gradually add the matcha-sugar mixture to the milk-cream mixture, whisking continuously to ensure the matcha powder is evenly dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
Once fully combined, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until the mixture is thoroughly chilled.
After chilling, pour the mixture into an ice cream maker.
Churn the mixture according to the manufacturer's instructions until it reaches a soft serve consistency. This typically takes around 15-20 minutes.
Once ready, serve the matcha soft serve immediately in cups or cones, and enjoy your homemade treat!
