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 will curdle and scramble if overcooked. Additionally, cooking to this temperature range integrates the sugar and thickens the mixture, resulting in smoother texture.
NOTE: If your freezer is set to a very cold temperature, the ice cream may look crumbly. If this occurs, select RE-SPIN to process the mixture a little more until smooth prior to dispensing.
MAKE IT DAIRY-FREE Swap in unsweetened coconut cream for the heavy cream, and unsweetened oat milk for the whole milk.
