Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Heavy cream
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 4 tablespoons Truvia sweetener
- 2 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract
- 4 large Egg yolks
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, Truvia sweetener, and a pinch of salt until smooth and pale yellow. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the heavy cream and unsweetened almond milk. Heat the mixture gently, stirring frequently, until it starts to steam but does not boil.
Slowly pour about 1/2 cup of the heated cream mixture into the egg yolk mixture, whisking constantly to temper the eggs and prevent scrambling.
Gradually whisk the tempered egg yolk mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining heated cream mixture.
Reduce the heat to low and cook the mixture, stirring constantly, until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon. This should take about 8–10 minutes. Be careful not to let the mixture boil.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the pure vanilla extract. Allow the mixture to cool slightly, then transfer it to a bowl.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, pressing the wrap directly onto the surface of the custard to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate the custard for at least 3–4 hours, or until thoroughly chilled.
Once chilled, pour the custard into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. This usually takes about 20–25 minutes.
Transfer the churned ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for 2–3 hours to firm up before serving.
Enjoy your creamy, low-carb, sugar-free Truvia vanilla ice cream!
