Cinnamon ice cream recipe
Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 1 ½ cups half-and-half cream
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
-
Whisk eggs together in a bowl.
-
Stir half-and-half and sugar together in a saucepan over medium-low heat until the mixture begins to simmer. Remove from the heat.
-
Pour 1/2 of the hot mixture into the eggs, whisking quickly to avoid scrambling the eggs. Pour the mixture back into the saucepan and whisk in heavy cream. Continue cooking over medium-low heat, whisking constantly, until thick enough to coat the back of a metal spoon. Remove from the heat, and whisk in cinnamon and vanilla. Set aside to cool, about 30 minutes.
-
Pour mixture into an ice cream maker and freeze according to the manufacturer’s instructions, about 20 minutes. Transfer to an airtight container and freeze until firm or desired consistency, about 2 to 4 hours.
