Equipment

  • 1 hand mixer or stand mixer

Ingredients
  

  • 6 egg yolks from pastured hens
  • 1 C cultured cream
  • 1 T raw honey, preferably local
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract or vanilla powder
  • OR juice of one lemon
  • OR 2 T cocoa powder

Instructions
 

  • Beat the egg yolks in the bowl or your stand mixer or in a bowl using a hand mixer. Ideally, beat for 20 minutes until they are very pale, fluffy, and creamy. If you are using a hand mixer, beat for several minutes for pretty good results.
  • If you are adding flavoring, add that now. Vanilla is good, and lemon juice is also tasty. If you try chocolate, use about 2 T cocoa or cacao powder. Add more honey if needed.
  • Finally, beat in 1 C cultured cream (or sour cream if not on the GAPS diet) enough to mix.
  • Pour the custard into 4 serving bowls and freeze for a couple of hours.
  • If your custards freeze hard, let them sit for 10 minutes or so at room temperature, and you will be able to eat them then!
