Method

  1. 1

    Toast the walnuts in a dry frying pan over a medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes until fragrant. Tip onto a plate and leave to cool.

    4 min
  2. 2

    Whip the cream to soft peaks. It should hold a trail but still look loose.

  3. 3

    In a large bowl, whisk the yoghurt, honey, vanilla and cinnamon until smooth. Fold in the whipped cream gently, keeping as much air as you can.

  4. 4

    Churn in an ice cream machine for 20 minutes, adding most of the walnuts for the last 2 minutes. If you have no machine, stir in the walnuts and go straight to the next step.

  5. 5

    Spoon into a freezer tub and freeze for at least 4 hours. For the no machine version, beat well with a fork after 1 hour and again after 2 hours.

  6. 6

    Serve in scoops, drizzled with extra honey and the remaining walnuts.
