Ingredients

  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 250 ml milk full fat
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 100 g sugar caster or superfine
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 450 ml double cream

Instructions

  • Place the cinnamon stick with the milk in a pan and bring to the boil. Remove and set aside.
  • In a separate bowl whisk together the egg yolks, sugar and freshly ground cinnamon until well combined and the mixture resembles a runny cake batter. Discard the cinnamon stick and proceed to pour the warm milk mixture over the batter whisking continuously.
  • Place this egg custard into a saucepan, put it on a low heat over the stove stop and cook for between 5-10 mins-stirring constantly until thickened.
  • Whisk the custard into the cream ensuring it is well combined. Allow the custard to cool completely before churning in an ice cream machine.
  • Freeze the churned custard for a few hours and then serve the ice cream in your favourite manner.
