Ingredients

Scale

Dairy

  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup whole milk

Sweetener & Flavor

  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Prepare the base: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, and ground cinnamon until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture is smooth and well blended.
  2. Churn the ice cream: Pour the cinnamon cream mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, usually about 20-25 minutes, until the mixture thickens and reaches a soft-serve consistency.
  3. Freeze to firm up: Transfer the churned ice cream into an airtight container and place it in the freezer for at least 2-4 hours to allow it to firm up into a scoopable consistency.
  4. Serve and enjoy: Scoop the cinnamon ice cream into bowls or cones and serve immediately for a rich and warming cinnamon-flavored dessert.

Notes

  • For a stronger cinnamon flavor, you can infuse the milk with cinnamon sticks by heating and steeping before mixing.
  • Adjust the sugar amount based on your sweetness preference.
  • If you don’t have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow container, freeze, and stir every 30 minutes until frozen.
  • Garnish with ground cinnamon or cinnamon sticks for presentation.
