I am obsessed with ice cream, as most of you already know, and I have a bunch of great ice cream recipes on my website that you can try for yourself! I encourage you to go out and buy a standard ice cream machine (under $40) and get on your way to making all-natural and delicious ice cream!
Here is my basic recipe for Vanilla Bean Ice Cream. If you want to infuse a flavour like coffee, for example, do this during step 1. If you want to add in nuts or crushed cookies, for example, do that in the last 5 minutes of the churning process or when your ice cream is frozen, use a spatula and fold in any add-ins that that you want!
Vanilla Bean Ice Cream
- Total Time: 6 hours
- Yield: 1 quart 1x
Description
This is the base recipe that I use for all of my ice creams.
Ingredients
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 vanilla bean, sliced and seeds scraped (or 1 tsp vanilla extract)
- 5 egg yolks
- 1/2 cup sugar
Instructions
- Place cream, milk, vanilla beans and seeds into a medium heavy-based saucepan. Heat until mixture just starts to simmer.
- Meanwhile beat egg yolks and sugar in a bowl until pale and thick. Remove vanilla bean from cream mixture and slowly whisk half of the milk mixture into the egg mixture. Then pour back into the saucepan.
- Return mixture back to low heat. Stir constantly with a wooden spoon until the mixture has thickened and coats the back of a spoon.
- Pour mixture into a heatproof bowl, fitted with a sieve, and put bowl with the strained ice cream base into a bowl with an ice bath. Cool the base to room temperature and then cover and refrigerate until well chilled (at least 5 hours or ideally overnight).
- Pour into ice cream machine drum and follow your ice cream maker’s instructions.
- Once mixture is frozen, transfer to a freezer safe container and freeze for up to 1 week.
- Prep Time: 5 hours 30 mins
