Fancy a change from the classic vanilla or chocolate ice cream? Nougat ice cream is a real delicacy with a southern accent, where honey, almonds and pistachios are reminiscent of Provençal sweets. With Ninja Creami, you can easily create a creamy, fragrant ice cream, with crunchy bits to bring out the richness of the nougat.

portions

Ingredients

  • 250 ml of whole milk nice and cold

  • 100 ml of full-fat liquid cream (30 % MG)

  • 80 g of tender nougat

  • 40 g of honey

  • 1 egg yolk

Directions

  • Nougat fund
    Cut the nougat into small pieces. Place in a saucepan with the milk and honey. Heat over low heat, stirring regularly, until the nougat has completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
  • Prepare the creamy base
    Let the mixture cool slightly, then add the cream and, if you like, the egg yolk. Blend with a blender or hand blender until smooth.
  • Freezes the preparation
    Pour the base into the tray of your Ninja Creami. Smooth the surface with a spatula, then place the tray flat in the freezer for a few minutes. 24 full hours.
  • Turns to ice
    Place the frozen tray in the machine and start the program. Ice Cream.
  • Adjusts texture
    If the ice cream is still too crumbly after the first cycle, add a teaspoon of cold milk and repeat the cycle. Re-Spin for extra creaminess.
  • Add the crunch
    Break off a few pieces of nougat, prepare toasted almonds or crushed pistachios, and add them to the ice cream using the Mix-in. This will provide the perfect contrast between creaminess and crunchiness.
  • Tasting
    Squeeze immediately into cups and savour this gourmet ice cream with its unique nougat and honey flavour.

Notes

  • You can personalize this ice cream by varying the type of nougat (e.g. chocolate or hazelnut) for a different taste.
  • For a lighter version, omit the egg yolk and replace the cream with Greek yoghurt.
  • If you want to accentuate the gourmet side, add a drizzle of caramel just before serving, or stir white chocolate chips into the ice cream.
  • For an even more Provençal touch, add a little orange blossom.
