Spicy Ginger Pecan Ice Cream
- 3 cups whole milk or cream
- 3 egg yolks
- 1 Tbsp. arrowroot
- 1 Tbsp. ground ginger
- 1 Tbsp. vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup honey or maple syrup
- 1/2 – 3/4 cup chopped pecans
Beat egg yolks in a bowl and either pour into a blender or keep in the bowl. Blend in the remaining ingredients. Pour into an ice cream maker and process according to its instructions. When done, transfer the ice cream into a shallow plastic bowl and store in freezer or eat right away.
If you don’t have an ice cream maker… simply pour into a shallow plastic container, cover and store in your freezer. When frozen, take it out and let it thaw till slightly soft. Put back in the blender and give it a whirl till creamy.
Both ways give delicious results!! Also, don’t forget: enter to win a FREE quart jar of Tropical Traditions Organic Virgin Coconut Oil.
I almost forgot! Kristy @ My Little Space gave me a Friend Button… Thank you Kristy!!!!
This sounds sooo good! Perfect Fall icecream!
Yum! This reminds me of my grandparent’s house when I was little and would visit after school. They always had pecan ice cream in the freezer, so I find this flavor very comforting.
Oh that sounds delicious! If only my husband loved ginger as much as I do. I may have to try this with coconut milk.
You’re most welcome, Marillyn! I’m glad that we’re friends. Cheers.
Do you mind to share this delicious ice cream with me? I want a bucket….ha ha!
ohh I love ice cream, i never had ginger ice cream but I can imagine this taste wonderful
Sounds delicious! Makes me want to have an ice cream maker… 🙂
Sounds fantastic! The times I have made ice cream and not cooked the eggs into a custard first, it always has such good flavor. I need to remember that. Thanks for the reminder!
Oh, you had me at pecan and ice cream. But with ginger too? Yum!
Spicy ice cream? Why not? Love the combo!
This looks wonderful – you have a great website here:) I have this cookbook but don’t cook out of it as often as I should.
Original! And I love the combo of flavors in this recipe. Thanks for sharing!
Mare, what a delightful blog you have. I love this ice cream recipe. Must try it. Peaches are my favorite. Congratulations on your FFF award.
Thank you everybody! I hope most of you will get a chance to make this. Remember, if you don’t have an ice cream maker… use your blender!
My nephew is begging me to make ice cream next week. I always try to use local ingredients. If I’m not making these, I would probably make your coconut lime ice cream. And I will definitely use the blender.
