It doesn't seem to matter whether it is the lazy days of summer or 10 below with 3 feet of snow .... ice cream is always a favorite!
I have played around with some homemade recipes subbing monkfruit, dates, honey and then maple syrup
My family has finally landed on this easy, 5-ingredient recipe sweetened with maple syrup tapped from the trees in Vermont!
If you are looking for a perfect ice cream and frozen yogurt maker, this Cuisinart is my all time favorite!
To make life easy, I just keep the newly washed bowl in the freezer so that ice cream can be made at a moments notice!
Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream
2 large eggs
2/3 cup maple syrup
2 cups organic, farm fresh whipping cream
1 cup organic milk
2 t vanilla
Whisk eggs till fluffy (just a minute or so). Add in the other 4 ingredients and whisk. Pour into ice cream maker and continue with the instructions for your maker. In the Cuisinart that I use, it usually takes about 20 minutes.
Scoop out, top with your favorite nuts and enjoy!
** Notes:
We use a little bit less than 2/3 cup of the maple syrup since we don't want it too sweet
Have fun with different flavors - we have enjoyed adding some Peppermint and Orange Vitality Essential Oils !
May your blessings be numerous ~ Rhonda
