INGREDIENTS

  • Ice Cream Base

    • 🥛 1 ½ cups heavy whipping cream
    • 🥚 5 egg yolks
    • 🥛 1 ½ cups milk
    • 🧂 2 tablespoons white sugar
    • 1 tablespoon corn syrup
    • ¾ cup maple syrup
    • 🧂 ⅛ teaspoon coarse salt
    • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract

  • Walnut Topping

    • 🌰 1 ½ cups walnut halves
    • ½ cup maple syrup
    • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
    • 🧂 1 pinch salt

STEPS

1

Pour heavy cream into a bowl and set a mesh strainer over it. Whisk egg yolks in a separate bowl.

2

Heat milk, sugar, and corn syrup in a saucepan over medium-low heat until steaming, about 5 minutes.

3

Slowly pour 1/2 cup of the heated milk into the egg yolks, whisking constantly. Then transfer the yolk mixture back to the saucepan.

4

Cook and stir until the mixture thickens and coats the spatula. Remove from heat, strain through the mesh strainer into the cream, and mix.

5

Stir maple syrup, salt, and vanilla into the cream mixture, chill over an ice bath, then refrigerate for 2 hours.

6

Preheat oven to 275°F (135°C). Spread walnuts on a baking sheet and toast until golden, around 15 minutes. Cool and chop coarsely.

7

Heat maple syrup in a saucepan until boiling, stir in walnuts, and boil for 10 seconds. Remove from heat and let cool completely.

8

Pour the chilled cream mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to instructions. Mix in the prepared walnuts during the last few minutes of churning.
