Ingredients
  

For the Base
  • 2 cups Full Cream / Whole Milk For a lighter option, substitute with low-fat milk.
  • 1 cup Heavy / Thickened Cream Substitute coconut cream for a dairy-free version.
  • 5 large Egg Yolks Use medium-sized eggs at room temperature for best results.
  • 3/4 cup Caster Sugar Granulated sugar can be used but might result in a grainier texture.
For the Flavor
  • 1 cup Passion Fruit Pulp Fresh or frozen can be used, avoid sweetened versions.
  • 1 tablespoon Vanilla Paste Vanilla extract works just as well if you don’t have paste.

  • Ice Cream Maker
  • medium saucepan
  • mixing bowls
  • Whisk

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by placing the bowl of your ice cream maker in the freezer for at least 12-24 hours.
  2. In a medium saucepan, whisk together the full cream, whole milk, passion fruit pulp, and vanilla paste, and heat over low until it starts to simmer.
  3. Whisk the egg yolks and caster sugar together until smooth and creamy, then temper the yolks by slowly pouring in the warm milk mixture.
  4. Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly until the custard thickens slightly, about 5-10 minutes.
  5. Transfer custard mixture into a clean bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours.
  6. Once chilled, pour the custard into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
  7. Transfer the churned Passion Fruit Ice Cream into a freezer-safe container, cover with parchment paper, and freeze for at least 3 hours.
