Why Is My Homemade Ice Cream So Buttery or Greasy?

So your no-churn homemade ice cream is buttery or greasy – what a bummer. It happens and here’s the culprit!

The main culprit for a buttery or greasy ice cream that leaves a greasy film on a tongue is the butterfat content being too high and over-whipping your heavy cream.

Therefore, ensure you’re not using too much heavy cream based on the other ingredients in your recipe.

For instance, based on your other ingredients you may have to incorporate some half and half milk or whole milk to reduce the butterfat content in your ice cream recipe.

Whipping your creams creates a structure that helps you create creamy ice cream that’s scoopable.

However, overwhipping separates the milk and butter which creates the cream, which then results in a buttery or greasy ice cream.

So again, avoid over-whipping your heavy cream to avoid creating a buttery or greasy ice cream.

Is No-churn Homemade Ice Cream Better With Or Without Eggs?

Using eggs for your no-churn homemade ice cream will be based on multiple factors. One factor is based on the texture of the ice cream. Eggs consist of mainly fat which will affect the texture.

The fat, which makes up a good portion of the egg, freezes differently than water.

For instance, ice cream using water instead of eggs will come out a lot harder. Eggs, on the other hand, will make the ice cream soft and creamy.

Another factor to take into consideration is the taste that comes with eggs. If you do not want the flavor of eggs in your no-churn homemade ice cream, then do not use eggs.
