Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups ice cream flavor of your choice, softened
  • 1 ½ cups self-rising flour
  • ½ cup granulated sugar

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
  • Mix the ice cream: In a large bowl, mix the softened ice cream with the sugar until well combined.
  • Add the flour: Gradually add the self-rising flour to the ice cream mixture and stir until smooth.
  • Pour into pan: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly.
  • Bake: Bake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Cool and serve: Let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

  • You can use any flavor of ice cream—vanilla, chocolate, or fruity flavors like strawberry or peach work well.
  • This bread is naturally sweet, so it's perfect on its own, but you can also drizzle it with frosting or enjoy it with a scoop of ice cream.
  • If you prefer a lighter texture, you can substitute self-rising flour with all-purpose flour and add 2 teaspoons of baking powder.
