1

Separate the yolks from the whites of 4 large eggs by breaking each egg in half and passing the yolk between the shell halves.

2

Pour the egg yolks into a bowl and add 70 grams of caster sugar.

3

Whisk the egg yolks and sugar together until lighter in color.

4

Place a saucepan over low to medium heat and pour in 120 milliliters of whole milk and 300 milliliters of double cream.

5

Stir the cream and milk mixture continuously until it reaches a gentle simmer.

6

Turn the stove down to its lowest heat and pour in the egg yolk and sugar mixture, stirring continuously for about 10 minutes until thickened and it sticks to the back of a spoon.

7

Remove the ice cream base from the heat and pour it into a heatproof bowl, cover, and leave to cool completely in the fridge.

8

In a mini food processor, add 2 slices of brown bread and blitz until fine breadcrumbs form.

9

Add the breadcrumbs to a bowl with 75 grams of dark brown sugar and mix briefly.

10

Spread the brown bread and sugar mixture in a thin layer on a baking tray lined with greaseproof or parchment paper.

11

Place the baking tray under the grill on medium heat until the sugar starts to bubble, watching carefully to prevent burning.

12

Remove from the grill and let it cool briefly, then crumble it into small pieces, discarding any burnt bits.

13

Once the ice cream base is cooled, pour it into the bowl and paddle of the ice cream maker along with the crumbled brown bread and sugar mixture.

14

Churn the ice cream according to your ice cream maker's instructions until you reach your desired consistency.

15

Remove the bowl from the ice cream maker, take out the paddle, and scrape the ice cream into a freezer-proof container.

16

Leave in the freezer for a short while longer if needed to firm up.
