Muesli Ice-cream
by Tarla Dalal
Luscious homemade ice-cream with a milky, vanilla-laced flavour is enhanced with a crunchy muesli mix that features super ingredients like nuts, oats, corn flakes and melon seeds.
There is excitement in every spoonful of this Muesli Ice-Cream, thanks to the peppy textures and flavours contributed by the special muesli mix.
What makes this mix so interesting is the process of caramelizing it before adding it to the ice-cream.
Make sure you crush the caramelized muesli coarsely with a mortar-pestle because powdering it smoothly in a Mixer will kill the crunchiness!
