Step-by-Step Instructions
- Pour 2 cups of fresh apple cider into a small pot and bring it to a boil over medium heat. Allow it to simmer for 30-45 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it reduces to about ¼ cup.
- Once the cider has reduced, add 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter, 1 cup of muscovado sugar, a pinch of fine sea salt, and ½ teaspoon of ground cinnamon to the pot. Stir continuously and bring it to a gentle boil until it reaches 245°F (118°C).
- Remove the pot from the heat and slowly whisk in 1 cup of heavy cream and 1 cup of whole milk until fully combined. If the caramel hardens, return it to low heat until dissolved.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate overnight.
- Place your ice cream maker's container in the freezer for at least 30 minutes. Pour the chilled mixture into the pre-frozen ice cream maker and churn according to the instructions for 20-25 minutes.
- After churning, transfer the ice cream to an airtight container, spread it out evenly, and freeze for at least 4 hours until firm.
