Equipment
- Ice Cream Maker
Ingredients
- 1 cup maple syrup
- 2 cups whipping cream
- 1 cup coffee cream
- a pinch of salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, bring the maple syrup to a boil. Reduce the heat and allow it to simmer for around 5 minutes, or until the maple syrup has reduced to around 3/4 cup.
- Mix in the creams and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil then remove from the heat.
- In a small bowl, beat together the eggs. Slowly mix in around 1 cup of the hot mixture. Add this mixture to the saucepan with the hot cream and whisk together.
- Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly until the mixture is hot. Do not let the mixture boil.
- Pour the mixture into a glass bowl. Cover and refrigerate for around 3-4 hours, or until cold.
- Freeze according to manufacturer's instructions, adding in the pecans when the mixture is 30 minutes from being done.
- Pour into an airtight container and place in the freezer overnight.
Notes
- Make sure to do the step with the eggs slowly. You don't want to cook the eggs and have egg bits in your ice cream.
