Tools You’ll Need to Make Vanilla Ice Cream:

Ice cream maker
Mixing bowls
Whisk
Rubber spatula
Measuring cups and spoons
Knife and cutting board (for slicing the vanilla bean)
Freezer-safe container to store the ice cream

Ingredients for Vanilla Ice Cream:

2 cups of cream
1 cup of whole milk
1/2 cup of granulated sugar
1/3 cup of corn syrup
4 egg yolks
1 vanilla bean
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

How to Make Vanilla Ice Cream Ice Cream:

Place the whole milk and cream into the medium saucepan at medium heat and heat to about 150 Fahrenheit.

While the milk mixture is heating up, mix the corn syrup, yolks, and sugar in a bowl and mix with the whisk.

Time to convert this to a custard. Once it reaches 150°F, mix the warm milk/cream into the corn syrup, yolks, and sugar mixture. Do it in batches and stir vigorously to avoid clumping the egg. Once combined, place the mixture back into the pot and stir occasionally.

When all ingredients are combined, heat in medium/low heat and do not let the temperature go above 185°F. Heat until it is thick enough to cover the back of a wooden spoon. This will take about 12-15 minutes. While the mixture thickens, slice the vanilla bean and scrape the vanilla seeds with a butter knife. Place the vanilla seeds into the mixture and mix until well combined.

Once it has a creamy consistency, remove from the heat.

Pour the custard through a sieve over a bowl. Let it cool to room temperature before placing it in the refrigerator. As an option, you can place the bowl in an ice bath to speed up the process.

While the mixture is cooling, mix in the vanilla extract and stir until well combined.

Once it reaches room temperature, refrigerate for at least 24 hours.

Place a container in the freezer where you’re planning to put the ice cream so it is cold when you pour your freshly made ice cream.

The next day, set up the ice cream maker and follow the instructions to set it up. Pour the custard mixture into the freezer bowl and let churn for about 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, place your gelato in a cold, airtight container to avoid ice crystals from forming. Leave it in the freezer for at least 3-4 hours before serving.

When ready to serve, scoop the Vanilla Ice Cream into bowls or cones. Garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a slice of fresh apple if desired. Enjoy!
