Ingredients

• 2 cups Low-fat milk
• 1 cup Low-fat heavy cream substitute (plant-based cream or half-and-half)
• 0.5 cup Granulated erythritol or a low-calorie sweetener of choice
• 1.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.125 teaspoon Salt
• 1.5 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Unsweetened almond milk or water (for cornstarch slurry)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, combine the low-fat milk, low-fat heavy cream substitute, granulated erythritol, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt.

Step 2

Place the saucepan over medium heat and whisk the mixture until the sweetener is dissolved and the liquid is warmed (do not bring it to a boil).

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch with the unsweetened almond milk or water to make a slurry. Mix until smooth.

Step 4

Slowly pour the cornstarch slurry into the saucepan, whisking constantly to avoid lumps.

Step 5

Continue cooking the mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently, until it thickens slightly. This should take about 2-3 minutes. The mixture should coat the back of a spoon but remain pourable.

Step 6

Remove the saucepan from heat and let the mixture cool to room temperature. Then, cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until fully chilled.

Step 7

Once chilled, pour the mixture into your electric ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. This typically takes 20-25 minutes.

Step 8

Transfer the churned ice cream into an airtight container and freeze for 2-4 hours to allow it to firm up before serving.

Step 9

Serve the cinnamon ice cream in bowls or cones and enjoy your guilt-free treat!
