Dairy Free Vanilla Soft Serve Ice Cream

Servings: 4 - 6
Prep. Time: 15 minutes + 4 hours chill time
Cook Time: 15 - 17 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 700ml almond milk
  • 6 egg yolks
  • 120g caster sugar
  • 1 tbsp. almond cream
  • 3 vanilla beans

Directions:

  1. Mix the egg yolks and sugar together, until thick and pale.
  2. Pour the milk into a heavy based saucepan. Split and scrape the vanilla beans and add to the milk. Heat gently until almost boiling.
  3. Pour the milk over the egg and sugar mix and whisk together before pouring back into a clean pan. Stir with a wooden spoon, over a low heat, until thickened. The custard should coat the back of a wooden spoon. Add the almond butter and mix in well.
  4. Pour into a bowl and cover. Allow to cool slightly, before placing in the fridge for a minimum of four hours or overnight.
  5. When ready to make your soft serve ice cream, stir the chilled ice cream base. Add the frozen freezer bowl to the ice cream maker, turn on and pour in the chilled ingredients.
  6. Churn the ice cream base for 15-17 minutes. The soft serve is ready when it dispenses as a continuous thick ribbon.
  7. Serve into cones or bowls, adding toppings if required, whilst dispensing the ice cream.
