Cinnamon ice cream
3 cups heavy cream
1 1/2 cups whole milk
2 vanilla beans, split lengthwise

2 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Combine cream and milk in a large sauce pan. Scrape in seeds from vanilla beans; add beans. Bring just to simmer. Whisk sugar and yolks in large bowl to blend. Gradually whisk in hot cream mixture.

manufacturer's instructions. Transfer ice cream to a covered container and freeze until firm. (Can be made 3 days ahead. Keep frozen).
