Ingredients
- 2 cups (1 pint) melted ice cream (vanilla recommended)
- 1 1/2 cups (195g) self-rising flour
- 1/3 cup sprinkles, plus more for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a loaf pan and line the bottom and two longest sides with parchment paper strips to ensure easy removal of the bread after baking.
- Melt the Ice Cream: Place the ice cream in a medium bowl and let it thaw until melted. You can speed this up by microwaving it at 50% power in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every two minutes, until melted but still cool to the touch.
- Mix Dry and Wet Ingredients: Add the self-rising flour to the melted ice cream and mix until there are no streaks of flour visible. Gently fold in the sprinkles if using, mixing just until combined to maintain their color and texture.
- Prepare for Baking: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top evenly. Sprinkle additional sprinkles on top if desired for a decorative finish.
- Bake the Bread: Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 35 to 45 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool: Allow the bread to cool for a few minutes in the pan, then carefully remove it using the parchment paper. Transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Use ice cream flavors of your choice, but keep in mind sweeter or creamier ice creams will affect the flavor and texture.
- Self-rising flour already contains leavening agents; do not substitute with all-purpose flour unless you add baking powder and salt.
- For a dairy-free or vegan version, use plant-based ice cream and ensure self-rising flour alternatives are suitable.
- Add sprinkles last to avoid overmixing, preserving their vibrant colors.
- Store leftover bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for longer freshness.
