Pour the heavy cream and almond milk into a medium saucepan and place over medium heat.
Slice the vanilla bean lengthwise, scrape out the seeds using a knife, and add both the seeds and the pod to the saucepan.
Heat the mixture until it is just about to simmer, but do not let it boil. Remove from heat and let it sit for about 10 minutes to allow the vanilla to infuse.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, erythritol, and a pinch of salt until the mixture is pale and creamy.
Slowly pour a small amount of the warm cream mixture into the yolks to temper them, whisking continuously to prevent the eggs from scrambling.
Gradually whisk the tempered yolk mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining cream mixture.
Return the saucepan to low heat and cook the mixture, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until it thickens enough to coat the back of the spoon. Do not let it boil.
Once thickened, remove the saucepan from the heat and strain the custard through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl to remove any solids, including the vanilla pod.
Allow the custard to cool to room temperature, then cover the bowl with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface of the custard to prevent a skin from forming.
Chill the custard in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
Once fully chilled, pour the custard into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Transfer the churned ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for an additional 2-3 hours until firm before serving.
