Ingredients

  • 2 cups apple cider ( I use hard cider but you could use regular)
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • 1 stick cinnamon
  • 2 cups milk
  • 2 cups 35% cream
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 6 egg yolks lightly whisked

Instructions

  • Combine apple cider, sugar and cinnamon stick in a sauce pan over medium heat. Bring to a boil and simmer until it is reduced to ⅔ cup. This may take 25 minutes or more.
  • Remove from heat and remove cinnamon stick. Stir in milk and then cream. Mix well. Then add the cinnamon and egg yolks. Whisk until well incorporated and smooth.
  • Return sauce pan to medium heat and cook, stirring often until the mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. This may take about 20 minutes. Pour custard through a fine strainer to a medium bowl and cool.
  • Refrigerate until chilled (a couple of hours at least).
  • Process chilled custard in your ice cream maker according to machine's instructions. Transfer to a storage container and freeze at least 4 hours.
