Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole milk
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Chocolate-hazelnut flavored syrup
- 1 tablespoon Instant coffee granules
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Gelatin powder
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the whole milk and heavy cream. Heat over medium heat until the mixture is warm but not boiling.
Add the granulated sugar and stir until it dissolves completely. Remove the saucepan from heat.
In a separate small bowl, dissolve the gelatin powder in 2 tablespoons of warm water. Stir well and set aside to bloom for about 5 minutes.
Return the milk mixture to low heat, then stir in the bloomed gelatin, vanilla extract, chocolate-hazelnut flavored syrup, instant coffee granules, and salt.
Continue stirring until all ingredients are well combined and the gelatin is fully dissolved. Be careful not to bring the mixture to a boil.
Remove from heat and let the mixture cool to room temperature.
Once cooled, transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
Transfer the gelato to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours or until firm.
Before serving, let the gelato sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly for easier scooping.
Serve in bowls or cones and enjoy your nut-free hazelnut gelato!
