Cinnamon Ice Cream

Hot summer days are here!  And what better time to try out a new ice cream recipe?  This Cinnamon Ice Cream is super easy and tastes awesome!  Creamy delicious and so unique.  We had it plain, and it was wonderful.  But I've thinking it would be scrumptious over baked apples or even a good old apple pie.  Can't wait to try that one!  If any of you try it in the mean time, you'll have to let me know!  Happy summer!

Cinnamon Ice Cream
Submitted by Mindy ~ The Sisters Cafe

2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup pure maple syrup
2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 cups heavy cream
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon salt

Prepare an ice-water bath; set aside.

Combine the milk, sugar, maple syrup, and cinnamon in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved, approximately 6 minutes. Add cream, vanilla, and salt; stir to combine. Pour mixture into a medium bowl set in the ice-water bath. Stir occasionally until cooled. Cover and transfer to refrigerator until chilled at least 1 hour and up to overnight.

Stir mixture briefly; pour into an ice-cream maker and process according to manufacturer's instructions. Store ice cream in a covered container in the freezer, at least 1 hour and up to 1 week. Ice cream is best served within 3 days.
