ice cream with hazelnut pieces is a real treat for lovers of indulgent desserts. The creamy sweetness of vanilla combined with the crunch of roasted hazelnuts creates an explosion of flavors and textures. With Ninja Creami, you'll get perfectly smooth ice cream, and the hazelnut pieces will add that irresistible little crunch!
Ingredients :
- 100 ml of liquid cream
- 200 ml of whole milk
- 2 tablespoons of agave syrup (or adjust to your taste)
- 1 vanilla bean (or 2 tablespoons of vanilla extract)
- 50g of roasted hazelnuts (roughly chopped)
- 1 small pinch of salt (optional)
Preparation :
- Prepare the vanilla base.
In a saucepan, gently heat the milk and cream with the vanilla bean split in half (or the vanilla extract). If using a bean, scrape out the seeds well to release their full aroma. Let it infuse for a few minutes over low heat, then remove from the heat and let it cool. - Mix the ingredients.
Once the milk and cream mixture has cooled, add the agave syrup and a pinch of salt. Mix well until everything is completely smooth. - Pour into the Ninja Creami container.
Transfer the vanilla mixture into the Ninja Creami container, being careful not to exceed the MAX FILL . Then place in the freezer for 24 hours . - Churn with the Ice Cream program.
Once 24 hours have passed, insert the container into the Ninja Creami and select the "Ice Cream" . The vanilla ice cream will be creamy and full of flavor. - Add the hazelnut pieces using the Extra mode.
To add crunch without grinding the hazelnuts, use the "Mix-In" . Add the toasted and chopped hazelnuts to the ice cream, then gently mix them in without losing their crunch. - Respin Tip:
If the ice cream is a little too firm after the first cycle, use the "Respin" to soften the texture. If necessary, add a little milk to make it even creamier.
My Personal Tip:
For an even more indulgent touch, serve this ice cream with a drizzle of caramel or even some dark chocolate pieces. And if you want a little more texture, you can also add some extra hazelnut pieces as a topping; it's really delicious with the contrast of the creamy ice cream.
ice cream with hazelnut pieces is the perfect dessert for those who love rich, textured flavors. The sweetness of the vanilla pairs wonderfully with the crunch of the roasted hazelnuts. With Ninja Creami, you'll get a creamy texture and perfectly integrated hazelnut pieces. A treat with every spoonful!
