Featuring Pure Maple Syrup
6 portions

Ingredients

  • 200 g fresh or frozen cherries 
  • 2 tbsp maple sugar
  • 2 tbsp pure maple syrup (preferably very dark syrup for its strong taste) 
  • 397 g / 1 can of condensed milk 
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 500 ml double cream

Method

  1. Put the cherries and maple sugar into a saucepan and heat gently until soft and juicy, about 5 to 10 minutes depending on whether the cherries are fresh or frozen.

  2. In a separate bowl, whisk the double cream until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to over-whisk as the cream may become lumpy.

  3. Pour the condensed milk into the bowl, then add the maple syrup.

  4. Using a spatula, fold the ingredients together gently to retain air in the mixture.

  5. When mostly combined, use an electric whisk briefly to smooth out any lumps.

  6. Pour the mixture into a 1-litre container suitable for freezing, such as a Tupperware box or loaf tin.

  7. Either fold the cherries into the ice cream mixture before freezing or freeze the vanilla ice cream for 1 to 2 hours before adding the cherries to avoid sinking.

  8. Freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight.

  9. Serve in waffle cones or bowls, garnished with wafers and fresh cherries as desired.

This recipe is so simple to recreate at home and takes just 15 minutes to make. Make it in the morning and have it ready for lunch or dinner! The sharpness of tangy black cherries is the ideal accompaniment to the sweet, rich and robust flavours of the maple syrup.

More about maple

The colour and flavour of maple syrup changes in subtle ways during the seasonal harvest

At the start of the sugaring season, the syrup is generally clear, with a light, sweet taste. It becomes darker with a caramelised flavour as the season progresses throughout the spring.

An unopened can of maple syrup keeps for many years

Once the can is opened, syrup should be kept in an airtight container in a cool place.

Maple spread doesn't contain any butter or dairy products

Like all 100% pure maple products, maple spread comes from the sap of the maple tree — that’s all.
