Notes

Tips
  • You can use a stand mixer or a hand mixer to whip up the whipped cream, either works.
  • The matcha powder is how we get a naturally green flavor. If you are avoiding caffeine, then you can omit it and use green spirulina powder in its place!
  • The pistachio butter swirl and the pistachio pieces are optional, if you want a smooth ice cream, which no texture, you can leave both of these out and it will still taste delicious.
  • Be sure to store ice cream in an airtight container or ice cream tub to prevent freezer burn.
  • High Altitude — Follow the recipe as noted.
