Cereal Milk Ice Cream

There was some cereal in the cupboard that the kids kept bypassing, I was about to throw it out but then decided to give this whole cereal milk Ice cream thing a go. I have seen various posts on cereal milk ice cream and thought what a great idea, who doesn't enjoy slurping the dregs of cereal flavoured milk from the bottom of their breakfast bowl!, it's got the best flavour. You can use any cereal of your choice, great for using unwanted cereals. I think next time I will gather all the last bits of cereal the kids always happen to leave at the bottom of the packets and make a mixed cereal milk ice cream 😋

Ingredients

4 cups cereal
3 cups whole milk
2 1/2 cups thickened cream
1 egg
3 egg yolks
1 cup granulated sugar
1 Tsp vanilla extract
1/4 Tsp salt

Method

1. Put cereal in a bowl and pour in milk, allow to soak in the fridge for about 1 hour. Remove from fridge and strain the milk into another bowl. This should give you about 1 1/2 cups flavoured milk. Discard the cereal.

2. Combine the flavoured milk, cream, vanilla and salt in a pan. Heat over a medium heat and bring to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally.

3. Whilst milk is heating, combine sugar, egg and egg yolks in a stand mixer bowl, beat until thickened and creamy

4. Take out 1 cup of the hot milk/cream mixture and setting the mixer to low speed gradually add it to the egg mixture, mix until fully incorporated.

5. Transfer this mixture into the pan with the milk/cream mixture. Cook over a low heat, stirring constantly until thickened slightly, approx 2 minutes. Don't let it boil.

6. Transfer to a bowl and allow to cool at room temperature. Then refrigerate until completely cool, 1-2 hours.

7. Once the custard is chilled, follow manufacturers instructions for your ice cream maker as to how to make the ice cream.

Transfer ice cream to an airtight container. The ice cream will be soft and creamy, if you prefer a firmer ice cream put it in the freezer for 2 hours. Remove from freezer 10 minutes prior to serving.

Enjoy with some cereal sprinkled on top...Yummy

Aussie Pie Floater

With Australia day fast approaching, I had to share this Aussie icon. The pie floater is a meat pie submerged in thick pea soup, the pies are traditionally turned upside down sitting or sometimes submerged in the pea soup. The first time I had ever heard of this was while watching an episode of Billy Connolly's Australian tour. He was doing a show in Adelaide and indulged in one of these south Aussie icons. We tried a similar thing called a tiger pie from Harry's Cafe de Wheels on the Sydney harbour, the Tiger is a meat pie served with scoop of mash a scoop of mushy peas and a scoop of gravy, it was really delicious. A pie floater put simply is a meat pie on top of or covered in green pea soup with a choice of sauce squirted on top, the usual being ketchup, brown sauce, mint sauce, gravy or bbq sauce, some people also enjoy vinegar over their floater, I suppose the options can be endless, whatever 'floats' your pie!!. I searched a few variou...
