🍦 Ingredients
- 1½ cups raw milk (we love Raw Farms)
- ¼ cup heavy cream
- 4 egg yolks
- 3 tablespoons organic raw cane sugar or maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract (we recommend Simply Organic)
- Pinch of fine sea salt
🧊 Instructions
- Whisk the egg yolks in a medium bowl until smooth and golden.
- Add the raw milk, cream, sugar or syrup, vanilla extract, and salt.
- Whisk until fully combined and silky smooth.
- Pour the mixture into your Creami pint container (or similar freezer-safe container).
- Freeze for 24 hours — good things come to those who wait, darlin’.
- When ready, place the frozen pint into your Ninja Creami and run it on the Ice Cream setting.
- If needed, Re-Spin once to get that perfect soft-churned texture.
- Serve immediately or dress it up with a drizzle of caramel, chocolate, or even a shot of espresso for a country-style affogato.
🍽 Serving Suggestions
- Drizzle with caramel, honey, or dark chocolate sauce for extra indulgence.
- Spoon over warm peach cobbler, skillet brownies, or buttery cornbread cake.
- Top with cinnamon-toasted pecans or fresh berries for a rustic twist.
- Serve in vintage bowls, mason jars, or classic waffle cones for that Southern touch.
- Feeling fancy? Pour a shot of hot espresso over a scoop for a country-style affogato — a cozy little moment where Italy meets the front porch.
🧊 Storage Tips
- Keep in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 1 month.
- If the texture becomes firm, let it sit out for 5–10 minutes or re-spin in the Creami with a splash of raw milk.
- Avoid multiple thaw/refreeze cycles to preserve creaminess.
