Cranberry Ice Cream
Bright, tart, and beautifully colored cranberry ice cream is a great way to use up leftover cranberry sauce. Or a good reason to buy some fresh or frozen cranberries just to make this dish. While it is delicious as is, adding some chopped chocolate would make an excellent addition.
Servings: 6
Calories: 320kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup half n half or cashew beverage
- 4 egg yolks use pasteurized eggs if you are concerned about raw egg, see note (64g)
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream 340g, or a 13.5 ounce can coconut cream for dairy-free
- 1 1/2 cups cranberry sauce
- 1/4 cup allulose 45g
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract or Grand Marnier, or even gin, optional, helps keep the ice cream softer
- 1/2 teaspoon stevia glycerite or more to taste (3g)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt or 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/8 teaspoon xanthan gum optional, improves texture and helps keep the ice cream softer
Instructions
- Add all ingredients except cream to a blender and blend until completely smooth. After blending, pass the ice cream base through a fine mesh strainer to remove any seeds or cranberry skins (this step is optional but I prefer to do it for a smoother ice cream) and then stir in the cream until smooth. Taste and add more stevia if desired (note that when it is cold, it will taste slightly less sweet).
- Pour into an ice cream maker and process according to manufacturer’s directions. Once churned, transfer to a freezer-safe container and freeze until set, about 3-4 hours.
Notes
If you do not want to consume raw eggs, you can either buy eggs that are already pasteurized or do it yourself, if you have a sous vide machine. Simply heat to 135ºF for two hours. The egg will have a milky look to the white when you crack it but it is fine.
