🍦2-ingredient ICE CREAM BREAD Recipe Test ✨

Greetings to my beautiful lovelies .

It's Emmy and welcome back today .

I'm gonna be making a quick and dirty recipe that contains only two ingredients .

Well , technically three , if you want to make it extra cute , but you could reasonably make this recipe with only two ingredients and one of them is quite interesting .

It is ice cream .

We are going to be making ice cream bread .

So what's the other ingredient ?

The other ingredient is self rising flour , self rising flour is flour that contains baking powder and a bit of salt .

It's often used to make quick biscuits , but that's what's gonna give us the loing .

That's what's going to convert this into bread because the flour contains baking powder .

So what if you don't have self rising flour ?

Not to worry , you probably can still make this recipe with ingredients in your pantry .

You're gonna need some baking powder , some salt and all purpose flour .

You're gonna take 1.5 cups of all purpose flour and add one and three quarters teaspoon of baking powder and a heaping quarter teaspoon of salt whisk that all together and there you have it .

Your own homemade self rising flour .

Now that we've got our flour , we need ice cream .

Let me go grab it .

Boom , ice cream .

We're gonna need two cups of ice cream .

You can use any flavor you like .

But I've read that you should not use low calorie , low fat ice cream .

You need the fat to make this bread work .

Apparently I got a big old tub because it was on sale .

And I thought if I have a enough ice cream , I would do two different versions .

One plain and one with rainbow sprinkles .

So if we add this , this would technically not be two ingredient bread , it would be three .

But look how stink and cheery sprinkles are just gotta love rainbow sprinkles .

They're just happiness in a jar .

Just love them .

They just make you smile .

My youngest kiddo loves rainbows .

And when I showed him this container of sprinkles , he was just overjoyed because they're just joyousness in a container .

They're just , I love them and they have a very specific smell too .

It takes me back .

I think it's a bit of vanilla flavoring or something .

Yeah .

Rainbow sprinkles .

So , so many of you have gotten in touch with me to make this bread , but I first learned about it probably six or seven years ago on the simple cooking channel here on youtube .

I remember seeing it there .

But I think with all of us quarantined and self isolating , we're looking for simple and easy recipes to make at home , including this ice cream bread .

So I think that's what's caused the reinter in this recipe .

So , let's do this .

So I'm gonna take my ice cream and I've let this sit in the refrigerator and allowed it to melt .

So several recipes that I read said that it's important that your ice cream be either melted or very , very soft .

So if you haven't put your ice cream in the refrigerator overnight , you certainly could microwave it to get it nice and soft .

So this is an old fashioned measuring cup .

I love it .

One .

So the one cup measure on this measuring cup is right there .

Not to the top .

Oh , I'm spilling some .

Mhm .

Well , I am .

That's Van Ice cream .

Oh , that tastes like summer .

Yes .

Summer .

Ok .

Two cups into my bowl .

Now we're gonna add our 1.5 cups of self rising flour to make a batter .

This one is going to be the plain version .

That's it .

That's our two ingredients .

Mix it up , mixy , mixy , mixy .

There it is .

So , it's a very thick batter .

And these are loaf pans that I've had for years .

As you can tell they're well beaten and battered and stained and that's how I like them .

I'm gonna spray them with a little bit of baking spray .

Whenever I bake with loaf pans , I like to use a little bit of parchment paper .

You don't have to do this .

But I found it makes it a lot easier to take the bread out .

Now , we're just gonna spoon this very stiff batter into the pan .

This type of bread falls into the category of a quick bread because it's using baking powder as a leavening as opposed to something like yeast .

So if you don't have yeast , quick breads are a good option for you .

Smooth that out a bit .

So there is the plain ice cream bread .

Now let's do the fun one .

We have a little bit of extra .

This is nice 1.5 cups of self rising flour and a bunch of rainbow sprinkles .

Let's do a quarter cup and see how that looks .

See already .

That's better .

A quarter cup .

We'll see how rainbow that is .

We might have to add some more so you could add any additions you like you could add chocolate chips .

M and MS Reese's pieces whatever you like .

I want more than that .

Mhm .

Because I want this extra cherry we need cheer .

Oh yeah .

Yes .

Yes .

Yes .

Ok .

Mhm .

Alright .

So I'm gonna pop this into a preheated 350 degree oven for 35 to 50 minutes .

We're gonna use a skewer or a toothpick to check undone this when it doesn't have any crumbs on it .

We know that it's finished .

It should be noted that the ice cream is cold so this might take a little bit longer than you expect .

But Yeah .

OK .

So I will be baked when this is fully baked .

Ok , see you .

Bye .

OK .

My lovelies .

The ice cream bread is finished .

Now it ends up baking for about 40 to 45 minutes .

I was cooking two at the same time .

So perhaps that made a little bit of a difference .

So these have been cooling on a rack and now we are ready to taste .

Now , let me show you why I love using Parri paper .

When I bake with loaf pans , you just pull up on them like this and look how beautifully they come out .

Isn't that great ?

Have these brown up very nicely .

Let's try the plain one first .

Here we are .

It's not a very tall loaf of bread .

Is it nice ?

It smells like a vanilla yellow cake .

Look at that bread .

Alrighty .

So let's give the ice cream bread a taste .

Will it taste like ice cream ?

Will it taste like bread ?

Will it taste like pound cake ?

Let's find out .

I'm gonna take the slice right here right from the middle .

Eat the the crumb is pretty tight .

It's surprisingly moist and even though it contains two cups of ice cream , it's not very sweet at all .

Just very lightly sweetened .

It's definitely a bread .

This is not a cake .

So it's not gonna be sweet .

Well , sweet as you might think because your expectations are like , oh , I just put two cups of ice cream in there and I combined it with flour .

I'm gonna get a cake .

No , this is bread .

Definitely a bread .

Hm .

The top part it's very much like a scone .

It's not as kind of fluffy as a scone and it's not as rich as a scone .

There's no butter in here .

All we have is the fat that comes from the milk and cream that's in the ice cream .

Is it terrible ?

No .

Is it a cake ?

Definitely not .

It's fine .

I think this would actually be really fun to serve at a meal and see if you're getting can figure out what the secret ingredient is because they might be hard pressed .

I mean , if you smell it , you definitely think oh sweetness .

But when you eat it , it's hardly sweet at all .

Let's try the Sprinkle version and see if the sprinkles make it taste more festive .

It definitely makes it look more festive .

But let's see .

I put a half cup of sprinkles in here because I want it to be really cheery .

Yeah , a lot of sprinkles definitely get away with just putting a quarter cup .

This one smells just like the other one .

Vanilla and I am convinced that rainbow sprinkles have a flavor and a smell to them as well , but I can't really distinguish it from the vanilla flavoring of the ice cream already .

Let's give this one a go .

Here we go .

So not surprisingly , in terms of flavor , very similar to the first one just the slightest bit sweeter .

This is certainly more visually festive and I love it .

But I think if someone were to try this , if you were just handing a piece , I think they would be ultimately disappointed because when you see all of these sprinkles , your expectations in your brain , say cake and then when you taste it , you're like , oh that's like a bread .

I know this is ice cream bread .

But again , this is playing with your expectations because you know that there's ice cream in here and it's super fun .

Fetty Confetti Rainbow sprinkly .

And then when you taste it , it doesn't seem sweet enough .

But I do know one thing that will improve this .

I have some leftover ice cream .

Do do do do do do do so this is gonna make things better .

Yep .

Yep .

Yep .

Yep .

Yep .

And then we're gonna take some of our ice cream which is very conveniently pretty softened .

Cheers .

Hm .

Oh yeah .

Yeah .

Cold fluffy vanilla creamy kind of cake bread thing on the bottom .

Mhm .
