We eat ice cream all year round in our house. There is no ailment that ice cream doesn’t cute and there is no occasion that doesn’t warrant ice cream. The problem with this is it can get kind of fattening. Now, I’m willing to pay the price of some extra time in the gym or sacrifice on other high calorie foods, but when I hear of an alternative that will make over a classic recipe and yield a better taste? I’m game to try it!
By trading out heavy cream for low-fat evaporated milk, you not only lose a lot of fat but you gain a creamy, custard flavor. This was deemed a family favorite and will be our standard Vanilla Bean ice cream recipe from here on out!

Haha, I also eat ice cream year round. It would be an odd occasion if you were to look at my freezer and I didn’t have ice cream in there.
I absolutely love vanilla ice cream. I don’t know where to find vanilla beans, but I will search until I find some 🙂

I don’t know if there is one near you, but I buy my vanilla beans at WinCo in the bulk spice section. They are a great price! If you don’t have a WinCo, see if there are any other grocery stores that sell foods in bulk (when I say bulk, I mean loose foods in a bin, not huge packages like Costco.)

I order mine in bulk as well since I go through them pretty quick! Either from the Spice House or Amazon, great prices & quality!

This looks great. It will be the perfect filling for some homemade ice cream sandwiches.
I do have a question. I see corn syrup in the directions, but not in the ingredient list. How much corn syrup does the recipe need?
Thanks!
