I usually skip putting eggs in ice cream because it adds time to the process, but I was thinking about being in New York, which made me think of frozen custard. Frozen custard never really made it out to the west coast (and I don’t remember seeing it on my trips overseas), but I enjoyed having it on my visits east so I was in the mood to make some. I also had a bag of frozen cherries waiting to be used – so voilà – Cherry Frozen Custard made with coconut milk.
Ingredients:
2 cans SCD friendly coconut milk (I use Natural Value full fat)
3 eggs
1/2 cup honey
1 tbsp pure vanilla extract
2 cups cherries (thawed if using frozen – washed and hulled if using fresh)
Preparation:
- Whisk together eggs and honey
- Heat coconut milk over medium heat in a saucepan to just a simmer
- Slowly add coconut milk to egg mixture – begin a 1/4 cup at a time, while whisking briskly to temper the eggs – be careful not to add too fast (or forget to whisk) or the eggs will scramble
- Add mixture back to saucepan and heat over medium heat, stirring constantly until mixture coats the back of the spoon – it shouldn’t boil
- Remove from heat
- Allow to cool to room temperature – about 30 minutes
- Refrigerate for at least two hours
- Blend with cherries until smooth
- Pour in ice cream maker and proceed according to manufacturer directions
