Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425°F (218°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment.

Step 2

In a large measuring cup, whisk together the heavy cream with the orange juice and lime juice. Set aside in fridge until needed.

Step 3

In a medium pot, combine the Redpath Simply Raw™ Turbinado Sugar with the water and butter. Place on medium-high heat and bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve sugar. Add in the shredded carrots. Bring mixture back to a boil, and stir to coat carrots with the syrup. Cook until slightly softened; 5 minutes.

Step 4

Remove from heat. Use tongs to remove carrots and evenly spread onto the prepared baking sheet. Place sugar-mixture back onto medium-high heat. Reduce liquid to a thick syrup; about 5 minutes.

Step 5

Drizzle syrup over the carrots. Bake for 10 minutes or until edges begin to caramelize, stirring halfway through. Remove from oven.

Step 6

Carefully scrape the hot carrots and any leftover sugar or caramelized bits from the baking sheet into a blender, or bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade. Add in the milk and let carrots cool; 5 minutes. Process carrots until smooth or desired consistency is reached. Leave mixture chunkier if carrot bits are wanted throughout the ice cream.

Step 7

Stir carrot mixture into the heavy cream until well-blended. Stir in the pure maple syrup, pure vanilla extract, orange and lime zest, cinnamon, and salt until thoroughly combined. Place in fridge to chill; at least 30 minutes.

Step 8

Transfer the cold mixture into the bowl of ice cream maker and follow the manufacturer’s instructions. 

Step 9

For softer ice cream, serve immediately after being churned. For a firmer consistency, transfer to a container, cover well and freeze for 1 to 2 hours.

Chef's Tip


*If required, freeze the ice cream machine bowl for at least 24 hours before proceeding with recipe. Check your owner’s manual to be sure.

*Chill container that ice cream is going to be stored in for at least 30 minutes to ensure ice cream does not melt prematurely. 

*Any Redpath brown sugar can be used in place of the Redpath Simply Raw™ Turbinado Sugar. 

*Pre-julienned/shredded carrots found in grocery stores can be used.

*For a fun alternative, use purple heirloom carrots for a punch of colour.

*Remove ice cream from freezer about 5 to 10 minutes before scooping.
