COPYCAT Blue Bell Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream Recipe

Yum

June 25, 2019 By Autumn Rose Reo 42 Comments

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

Nothing is better than Blue Bell homemade vanilla ice cream. And we have a copycat recipe that tastes just like Blue Bell at home and tips to for making the best ice cream. 

affiliate-links

There’s nothing more Texan than  a big bowl of homemade vanilla ice cream straight from Brenham’s Blue Bell Creameries in the middle of July. However, you often hear when someone moves up north to one of the Yankee states, the sweet taste of BB is no where to be found (and everything fails in comparison.) 

Bluebell-Copycat-Homemade-Vanilla-Ice-Cream-Recipe


So in times like these (or during a little shortage catastrophe), I’ve worked to create the best version I could of the real thing using a simple and easy ice cream maker.  Don’t believe me that it’s possible?

Make it yourself, take a bite and tell me I’m wrong. (Really, I want you too!) 

Never made homemade ice cream before? Think it takes tons of work? You’re wrong! You just need a few tips and an ice cream maker. Of course, there’s tons of ice cream makers out there – you just need to find the right one for you! Check out my review of several on Good Morning Texas.

While I created my recipe for Bluebell Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream with the old school Hamilton ice maker (no switch is even on this baby), there are other ways to create a creamy treat – even some without using dairy! Take a look at these gadgets – especially the fun ones that have you take an active roll is making you scream for your ice cream.

    My wife made your faux Blue Bell Homemade Vanilla ice cream. It’s very good, but not BBHV. However, yours has its own unique, good taste, so that’s something to be proud of. Meanwhile, I’ll try to maintain during my BBHV withdrawal symptoms, until they start making it again. (Ours in KC comes from the Tulsa suburb of Broken Arrow, OK). Happy 4th!

      Actually I checked a lot of recipes, like Paula Deen’s recipe for Homemade Vanilla and she doesn’t cook hers either. If you’re concerned about that, I’d suggest using pasteurized eggs you can find at the grocery store. I haven’t been able to confirm that Bluebell does there’s with raw eggs, but I’m still checking.

        Regarding the eggs and whether to cook them or not, and whether Blue Bell cooks theirs:

        Blue Bell does not list eggs as an ingredient in their home made vanilla ice cream., and I would think if they did use an egg product they would list it as so many people have allergy to eggs. We use eggs in our ice cream to give it some solids, to bind it together and as a thickener, Blue Bell and other ice cream makers use vegetable gums to do the same thing , to give it stability, retard ice formation, and act as a preservative of sorts.
        Carob gum for instance, which is also sweet..it is another name for locust bean gum.
        The other predominant gum Blue Bell uses is Guar Gum. It has thickening properties far surpassing other thickening agents such as corn starch and it is what give Blue Bell Home Made vanilla it’s creamy and not icy consistency.
        From Wiki:
        “Guar gum retards ice crystal growth nonspecifically by slowing mass transfer across the solid/liquid interface. It shows good stability during freeze-thaw cycles. It is therefore used in egg free ice cream. Guar gum has synergistic effects with locust bean gum and sodium alginate. May be synergistic with xanthan: together with xanthan gum, it produces a thicker product (0.5% guar gum / 0.35% xanthan gum), which is used in applications such as soups, which do not require clear results.”

        As a native Texan, I am a life long ardent fan of BB home made vanilla…I’m closer to 69 than 68 years old so I have eaten a LOT of it. I did survive the Great Blue Bell Ice Cream Famine of 2015, but barely.
        I have now tried this recipe on July 4 2018. Thank you so much for posting the recipe!!! It is very close but still not quite Blue Bell and I do not mean that in a critical fashion. It is the closest I have seen. It will need a little tweaking.., some salt, perhaps a bit more vanilla as well. Mine did seem a lot more icy than Blue Bell, probably because the absence of the veg gums. I did use egg yolks, uncooked. Since I was making 6 qts, I increased each of the ingredients by 1/3.

        I did have to temper the ice cream in my freezer after it got hard to turn. 35-40 minutes tho I do believe had I just removed the dasher, covered the churn with a rolled towel, and left the can in the icy brine. it would have firmed up nicely as well.

    My husband and I are among those suffering from BBHV withdrawals, so we tried this recipe. VERY close! However, our freezer is a 6-quart freezer so I went with measuring the “milk to fill line” and used about 2 cups of whole milk. I also went with slightly more vanilla than you called for because we like a strong vanilla flavor. What we found when churning this ice cream in our freezer is that after about 1 hour, it had not frozen enough to stop the electric motor. My husband disconnected the electric motor, and hand-cranked for another 15 minutes or so. It never got to the firm stage. So we put it in a freezer container and put it in our upright freezer overnight (from about 9 p.m. until 1:30 p.m. the next day). Even then, it did not get to a really firm stage. It has more the consistency of a carton of ice cream that has been out of the freezer for about 10 minutes. Nonetheless, delicious!

      I’m glad it was good, but sorry it didn’t turn out for you. I did churn mine for around 1.5 to get it to stop. I also put it the freezer overnight to get it to the same consistency to be able to scoop it out. I know every ice cream freezer is different so perhaps more time in it would work OR maybe we can cut down the milk ingredients?

        I just made your recipe for BBHV and it tasted great! However, I had the same problem with getting the ice cream to freeze. I used two cups of milk as stated in the recipe and I also used a 6 qt container. After an hour of churning, it was still liquid. I churned another half hour and it was like soft serve. I scooped out into a storage container to put in freezer. After a few hours it had hardened more. I had a few hours more until I needed to serve. It was delicious, but still too soft, IMO. The left overs were put in the freezer until following day. By the time I was ready to dig into the left overs, it had hardened perfectly. Next time, I will make 24 hours in advance to give enough time to freeze.

    This isn’t a bad recipe at all, but for me its still too far off from my memory of Blue Bell vanilla. Will keep hunting.

    NOTE: To be as clear as possible – this produces a very delicious ice cream! I just don’t feel it sinks up with Blue Bell at all. Its a little sweeter, a little weaker in terms of vanilla flavor.

    We prepare ice cream for the large meals/feasts we prepare for our Neighborhood Watch meetings in our home, as well as the huge family reunions at Thanksgiving or Christmas and Spring BBQs and Feasts. So far, we have made all natural Rocky Road, Mango, Blueberry, Pomegranate, Watermelon, Black Cherry, Strawberry, and numerous other kinds of ice cream, but we have been looking for a vanilla recipe that was up to our high standards. This one may do it.

    We remain skeptical about using raw egg yolks, though we know the risk of salmonella is greatly reduced by eliminating the albumen, we really do not want any risk of salmonella that we serve to our family, friends, and neighbors, so we would recommend pasteurized eggs (yolks). The added cost for pasteurized eggs is tiny compared to the health of our family and others.

    My girls and I just attempted this recipe and it was a fail. The consistency never thickened to anything that resembled ice cream or even soft serve. It was also so sickeningly sweet that my teenage daughters were rinsing their mouths out and running to brush their teeth! I also have my reservations about the uncooked egg yolks in the ice cream. I’m sure you CAN make ice cream without cooking, but SHOULD you?

      Oh no! It is soft before freezing but after a few hours, I was able to scoop it up like Blue Bell! I’ll try to recreate again in a video to show the ease of this and that it does come out! Thanks for trying.

    If the ice cream didn’t set up, you may not be using enough salt. According to Martha Stewart, one cup of rock salt is used for each 5 cups of ice.

    I have tried this recipe 3 times already and it’s my favorite handsdown. It’s not BBHV tasting, but it has its own taste that I love. It has this sweet/vanilla bean thing to it I guess and I love it. Like if you were to put this recipes side by side with BBVH, neither would win bc they are both so good in its own way.

Instagram post 2170108022832248704_9652031 Do you know the difference between Memorial Day and Veterans Day? 🇺🇸(Unfortunately, many people don’t.)⁣
⁣
Memorial Day is to remember those who gave their life for our country while Veterans Day honors those who have served our country, living or fallen.⁣
⁣
It’s our turn to say “thank you” for everything they’ve done for us. ⁣
Also remember: Next Monday, 11/11, McDonald's will honor all active/retired Vets (with ID) by offering a free extra value meal (5:30 am -8:30 pm.)⁣
⁣
It’s their way of saying thank you or what we like to say “McGiveback.”⁣

today is Christmas (at least if you hit the stores or checked your email.)💀

I wish there was more time to actually enjoy the holidays rather than rush through them especially this one.

This was actually from last weekend at the first #BigD Dia de los Muertos parade and we came out in a big way.

🎃Last week we hosted the first #GoGoWeen at @mrbones in #LA to launch @gogosqueez new Halloween packs! The costume fashion show was adorable with @erinziering and @beverleymitchell as well as a few kiddos from @abcmodernfam, @nbcthisisus plus even @jennipulos, @ianziering, and @gillesmarini came for the fun. Now that’s how you do a pumpkin patch!

We squeezed in a day to say howdy to #BigTex, score @fletcherscornydogs, chow down on the Deep Fried Chicken Fettuccine Balls, play some @nintendoswitches, and love on the 🐷 and 🦙. Everything after that is (cream) gravy!

Instagram post 2151995665564379360_9652031 💀It takes a village to create the scariest village known as “The Village on Front.”
🎃A haunted experience within Knapp Heritage Park, this real historical park from the 1800s becomes the site of the tale of Mary, a little 8 yr old who’s looking for her dead parents. Look for her and see what you’ll find when you get lost in the village.
☠️Warning: Hit the john before you go so you don’t pee your pants. And don’t bring anyone who scares easily. Really.
📆Starts Oct 11 and monies go towards revitalizing @arlingtonhistory. #ArlingtonTx #Halloween #thisisarlington
