Ingredients
Instructions
-
Start by pouring 2 cups of unsweetened almond milk into a saucepan along with cinnamon and/or pumpkin pie spice and heat on medium-low until it comes to a gentle boil.
-
Separate the yolks from 6 eggs and put them in separate bowl. Mix sweetener in with the egg yolks.
-
Remove saucepan from the heat and slowly ladle hot almond milk into egg mixture while gently whisking constantly. You will want to do this step nice and slow so that your eggs don’t curdle.
-
After it is all incorporated, return the saucepan to the stove on low heat and heat for 3 to 4 minutes more. DO NOT BOIL!
-
Remove from saucepan and chill in refrigerator for 1 hour.
-
Once chilled, add the vanilla, 1 cup of heavy whipping cream and two more cups of unsweetened almond milk.
-
Blend it all in a blender to fully incorporate the egg mixture, but this step is not required if you don’t feel like you need it.
-
Taste for sweetness and add more if desired.
Note
Recipe Suggestion:
- Save the egg whites to make a terrific Egg White Scramble for a Fuel Pull Breakfas
