Recipe for sugar-free coffee ice cream
Course: Sugar-free ice creamDifficulty: Average4
portions30
minutesIngredients
300 ml whole milk
3 egg yolks
30 to 50 g sweetener sugar-free powdered
(erythritol ice or a blend of erythritol + allulose for greater roundness)2 tbsp. mascarpone plain, sugar-free
Natural vanilla flavouring (to taste)
2 sticks of instant espresso coffee sugar-free
1 tsp SPANA stabilizer
Directions
- Mix the yolks without sugar
In a bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the sweetener until smooth. The mixture will not whiten like sugar, but this is normal: the aim is for the sweetener to dissolve. - Heat the milk
Pour the whole milk into a saucepan. If you're using SPANA stabilizer, add it cold, stirring carefully to avoid lumps. Then heat gently over medium heat, without bringing to the boil. - Making the custard
When the milk is hot, pour it gradually over the yolk-sweetener mixture, whisking constantly to temper the eggs. Then return the mixture to the pan and thicken over low heat, stirring constantly, until the cream coats the back of a spoon. The ideal temperature is between 74 and 79 °C, without ever boiling. - Add coffee and vanilla
Remove from the heat and stir in the espresso coffee sticks and vanilla flavoring. Mix thoroughly until completely dissolved, then leave to cool to room temperature. - Stir in the mascarpone
Add the mascarpone to the cooled cream and whisk vigorously (or use an immersion blender) to obtain a perfectly smooth texture. - Freezing the base
Pour the mixture into the Ninja Creami, and place it in the freezer for a few minutes. 24 heures, Place in the freezer, lying flat, until completely frozen. - Ice turbining
Install the pot in the Ninja Creami and start the program. Gelato.
If necessary, end with a Re-Spin for an even creamier, more melting texture.
