Cinnamon-Sugar Cereal Frozen Custard

TIP: It is important to stay within the 165°F–175°F range. The eggs should reach at least 165°F for them to be food safe, but they will scramble if overcooked. Additionally, cooking to this temperature range integrates the sugar and thickens the mixture, resulting in a smoother texture.

MAKE IT DAIRY-FREE Swap in unsweetened coconut cream for the heavy cream, and unsweetened oat milk for the whole milk.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1 1/2 cup cinnamon sugar crunch cereal
  • 3 large egg yolks
  • 1 tbsp light corn syrup
  • 3 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • cinnamon-sugar crunch cereal, crushed, for garnish

Utensils needed

  • Fine-Mesh Strainer
  • Instant-Read Thermometer
  • Rubber Spatula
  • Small Saucepan
  • Whisk

Instructions

Step 1
Add heavy cream, milk, and cereal to a large bowl. Allow mixture to sit for 15–30 minutes, stirring regularly to infuse cereal flavor into the liquid.

Step 2
Place egg yolks, corn syrup, and sugar in a small saucepan. Whisk until fully combined and sugar is dissolved.

Step 3
Pour the heavy cream, milk, cereal, and vanilla extract through a fine-mesh strainer into the saucepan containing the egg mixture. Press on the cereal with a spoon to release more liquid, then discard the cereal. Stir to combine.

Step 4
Place saucepan on stove over medium heat, stirring constantly with a whisk or rubber spatula. Cook until temperature reaches 165°F–175°F on an instant-read thermometer.

Step 5
Make sure pint base is closed. Remove saucepan from heat and pour through a fine-mesh strainer into an empty Swirl Pint. Place pint in an ice bath. Once cooled, place storage lid on pint and freeze for 24 hours.

Step 6
Remove pint from freezer and remove lid from pint. Refer to page 6 for bowl assembly and unit interaction information.

Step 7
Select SOFT SERVE, then select FROZEN CUSTARD.

Step 8
When processing is complete, refer to page 8 for extrusion assembly and interaction information. Dispense into a chilled bowl or cone, top with crushed cereal, and serve immediately.
