  • Sprinkles- You will need colorful sprinkles for this recipe.

How to Make Ice Cream Bread

To start, add the frozen custard into a large bowl and mix until creamy.

Next, add the flour, sugar, and sprinkles into the custard and combine until fully incorporated.

Adding in the sprinkles.

Now, use spray butter to grease a loaf pan, then use two separated pieces of parchment paper to line the loaf pan.

You will want to cut one piece of the paper lengthwise with a bit more to hang off the edges of the pan, then cut the other piece widthwise while also leaving some to hang over the sides of the pan.

When the bread is done, you will be able to lift the cake out of the pan without it sticking.

Next, pour the finished batter into the prepared pan.

Pouring the batter into the pan.

Place the pan into the oven for 45 minutes at 350 degrees or until you place a toothpick in the center and it comes out clean.

The top of the cake will begin to brown, so just cover with foil to keep it from burning.

To Finish, take the bread out of the oven and transfer it to a wire rack to cool for 30 minutes.

After, use the extra parchment paper on the sides to lift the bread out of the pan and put it back onto the wire rack with the parchment paper still attached.

Allow the recipe to cool thoroughly before serving.

Finally, wrap the finished bread in parchment paper, then foil and put it into the fridge for the best results.

Cut into 1-inch slices and enjoy!

Notes

NOTE:  Make sure you use 'SELF RISING FLOUR' or the Bread won't rise.  I used Gold Medal self-rising flour, and the bread did rise while baking.  ALSO:  I used 'Andy's frozen Custard'.  It worked great and added a great flavor to the bread. Frozen Custard contains more cream and Egg Yolks, and Ice Cream usually doesn't.  You can use any brand of Frozen Custard, and you can even buy it at most local grocery stores.  Freddy's Hamburger's has Frozen Custard, as does Culver's and many other restaurants.
