Ingredients

• 3.5 cups fresh strawberries , hulled
• 0.5 cups white sugar , divided
• 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
• 0.5 cups heavy whipping cream

Instructions

1. 1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a silicone non-stick mat that is larger than the tray to prevent juice from spilling onto the tray.
2. 2 Combine strawberries, 1/4 cup sugar, and balsamic vinegar in a bowl; toss gently to coat. Transfer to the baking sheet, scraping down the bowl with a spatula to ensure all the liquid is included.
3. 3 Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside to cool, about 30 minutes.
4. 4 Transfer cooled strawberries and all juice to the bowl of a food processor. Add remaining 1/4 cup sugar and cream; mix until smooth.
5. 5 Pour strawberry mixture into an ice cream maker and freeze according to manufacturer's instructions until it reaches the creamy texture of a gelato, 40 to 45 minutes. Serve immediately.
