Frequently Asked Questions
Can I Use Artificial Maple Syrup?
While you can use artificial maple syrup, the flavor won’t be as rich and authentic as using pure maple syrup. For the best results, opt for pure Grade A maple syrup.
How Do I Toast Walnuts?
To toast walnuts, spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are fragrant and golden brown.
Can I Make This Recipe Without an Ice Cream Maker?
Yes, you can! Use the no-churn method by folding whipped cream into the chilled custard and freezing it directly in an airtight container.
How Long Should I Chill the Custard Before Churning?
Chill the custard for at least 4 hours, but overnight is best to ensure it’s thoroughly chilled and will churn properly.
