Some say that baking is therapeutic, but for first-time bakers, making something as basic as plain bread can be a bit of a challenge, even with a recipe. Let’s also not forget the tabletop full of flour you’ll have to clean up after kneading the dough.

But our Japanese reporter Meg recently experimented with a super-simple recipe to make some quick yet yummy ice cream bread. No kneading required, and no messy flour-covered surfaces (well, unless you get clumsy in the kitchen)! Get the recipe after the break!

We saw a YouTube video by SimpleCookingChannel titled 2 Ingredient Ice Cream Bread, and we knew we had to try it at once. It’s bread made out of ice cream! Just the sound of that was enough reason.

In the video, the “bread” was made with only two ingredients: vanilla ice cream and self-raising flour. However, self-raising flour isn’t commonly available in Japan, so we switched that up with plain flour and baking powder, making this a three-ingredient recipe. Here’s the recipe that our experimental chef Meg worked with:

Ingredients:
2 cups of softened vanilla ice cream

The end product turned out looking more like pound cake than bread, but only a hint of sweetness from the ice cream lingered. In terms of texture, it was closer to that of a scone than the soft, chewy texture of bread. It’s yummy on its own, but we can imagine it tasting pretty awesome with a little bit of butter, jam, or even ice cream!
