Equipment

  • A Small Saucepan
  • An immersion blender
  • Small Whisk
  • 4 cup measuring cup or medium mixing bowl
  • Ice Cream Maker (either a stand alone machine or a stand mixer attachment)

Ingredients

The Cherry Sauce

  • 1 cup Cherries
  • cup Cane sugar
  • 1 TBSP Lemon Juice

The Ice Cream Base

  • cup Maple syrup
  • 2 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp Almond extract
  • 2 ½ cups Raw cream
  • 1 cup Raw milk
  • 5 Egg yolks or 3 whole eggs
  • ½ tsp Sea Salt
  • 1 tbsp Arrowroot powder

Instructions

The Cherry Sauce

  • Place all cherry sauce ingredients into a small saucepan on your stovetop.
  • Bring to a slight simmer on medium-low heat.
  • Once the mixture is well heated, blend with an immersion blender until smooth.
  • Set aside until fully cooled.

Making the Ice cream base

  • Once your cherry sauce is fully cooled, add all ice cream base ingredients except the milk and cream to your bowl. Whisk until well combined and smooth.
  • Next, add the cream, milk and cherry sauce to the bowl and whisk until well combined.
  • Add the cherry ice cream base to the ice cream churn and follow the directions of your ice cream maker. Depending on your machine, the ice cream making process can take between 15-30 minutes.
  • Once your ice cream is done, you can eat it right away or transfer to a container and store in the freezer for later use.

Notes

TIP: To get EXTRA creamy ice cream, place your ice cream base into the freezer for about 10 minutes. This should not cause your ice cream to solidify but it will help speed up the ice cream making process when you add it to your ice cream churn. In turn, your ice cream will turn out even creamier.
