Questions people ask about Two-Minute Fruit Ice Cream

How long does Two-Minute Fruit Ice Cream take?

About 5 minutes from starting to sitting down, and it is straightforward. That is start-to-finish, so it works on a weeknight when you have not planned anything.

What can I use instead of condensed in Two-Minute Fruit Ice Cream?

Use 120ml evaporated milk simmered with 100g sugar until thick.

Can I make Two-Minute Fruit Ice Cream ahead of time?

You can prepare it a few hours ahead and reheat gently. It keeps two days in the fridge, though it is best on the day.

Is Two-Minute Fruit Ice Cream vegetarian?

Yes, it is vegetarian. It is not vegan as written because it contains dairy; swap the dairy for a plant alternative and the rest of the method is unchanged.

Can I make Two-Minute Fruit Ice Cream without an oven?

That is exactly what this recipe is for. It uses a pressure cooker, a pan or the fridge instead of an oven, and the method here is written for that, not adapted from a baked version.

What do you serve with Two-Minute Fruit Ice Cream?

Eat now as soft serve, or pour into cups and freeze firm. Baking is chemistry, so scale it by weight rather than by eye: double every quantity, use a tin with roughly double the area, and expect to add ten minutes or so. Judge it by the skewer, not the clock.
