Ingredients

8 servings

  • 1.5 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 5 egg yolks
  • 1.5 cups milk
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon corn syrup
  • 0.75 cup maple syrup
  • 0.125 teaspoon coarse salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1.5 cups walnut halves
  • 0.5 cup maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 pinch salt

Instructions

  • Pour cream into a large bowl and set a mesh strainer over the bowl. Whisk egg yolks together in a separate bowl.
  • Heat milk, sugar, and corn syrup together in a saucepan over medium-low heat until milk begins to steam, about 5 minutes. Slowly pour about 1/2 cup heated milk into the egg yolks, whisking constantly. Scrape egg yolk mixture into the saucepan with a heatproof spatula.
  • Cook and stir milk mixture constantly with the spatula, scraping the bottom of the saucepan often, until mixture thickens and coats the spatula, about 10 minutes. Remove saucepan from heat; pour mixture through the mesh strainer into the cream.
  • Stir 3/4 cup maple syrup, coarse salt, and vanilla into cream mixture, then place the bowl over a larger bowl of ice water; stir to cool to room temperature. Chill mixture in the refrigerator, about 2 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C). Spread walnuts onto a baking sheet.
  • Toast walnuts in the preheated oven until they turn golden brown and become fragrant, about 15 minutes. Set nuts aside to cool to room temperature. Chop nuts coarsely.
  • Heat the 1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon maple syrup in a saucepan until it comes to a boil. Stir in walnuts, and return to a boil. Stir nuts for 10 seconds, remove from heat; set aside to cool completely. The nuts will be wet and sticky when cooled.
  • Remove cream mixture from the refrigerator, pour into your ice cream maker, and freeze according to manufacturer's instructions. During the last few minutes of churning, stir in wet walnuts.
