The homemade strawberry ice cream experiment went well, my folks are asking for another batch.
Right now I am thinking of making an apple pie, which would be great with cinnamon ice cream, if I can find a recipe.
If not, I need to find one for coffee ice cream...

Posted by: Vox at October 12, 2006 08:15 AMDid you need a recipe for the apple pie or the cinnamon ice cream?
Posted by: Lori at October 13, 2006 03:23 PMThe ice cream. I've got the apple pie down - though there are a couple of variations I want to try.
Posted by: Vox at October 13, 2006 03:29 PMI have a Cinnamon Ice Cream recipe from my Autumn Susan Branch book. However, she doesn't use an ice cream maker but cooks it over the stove before she freezes it. Let me know if you still want it. It actually sounds really good and I thought about trying it.
Posted by: Lori at October 13, 2006 04:06 PMYes, definitely - sounds like exactly what I want.
Yummy :-)
Posted by: Vox at October 13, 2006 04:12 PMI got the book last year and thought the recipe sounded yummy. I haven't tried it though. Here it is exactly in her book....
Cinnamon Ice Cream (makes 1 1/2 Qts.)
Easy and fun to make - keep a bowl of this in your freezer all season long - it goes with EVERYTHING: apple crisp to gingerbread cakes.
CAUTION: This recipe causes spoon-in-hand disease
1 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
2 tlsp butter
1 tlsp vanilla
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
2 cups half and half
6 lg. egg yolks
1 tsp cinnamon
*Best to measure everything out first
Put sugar, butter and vanilla in a saucepan over med. heat, stir till sugar melts and mixture is bubbly. Whisk in 1/2 cup heavy cream till smooth; remove from heat. In another pan combine 1 cup heavy cream with half and half and bring to simmer. Meanwhile, in a bowl, whisk egg yolks till blended. Whisk a small amount of warm cream mixture into yolks, warming them slowly while adding more cream - pour egg mixture back into pan with cream and stir constantly over low heat until mixture is slightly thickened, 3-4 min. (don't boil). Remove from heat immediately. Pour through fine mesh strainer into large bowl; whisk in brown sugar mixture and 1 tsp. cinnamon. Chill in fridge (or if you're in a hurry, put bowl into a larger bowl filled with ice and water); stir occasionally until cold. Freeze in ice cream maker.
