    Using a blender, blend all the ice-cream ingredients together until smooth. Pour into sealable zipper storage bags and freeze. When set, break apart and blend again until smooth. Pour into containers and freeze again to set, overnight if you like. Scoop and serve in Le Creuset Mini Casseroles with a sprinkling of crushed pistachios.

    To make the toast, combine the eggs and vanilla paste in a bowl. Dip the bread slices, one at a time, into the egg mixture. Spread the almonds evenly out on a plate. Dip the soaked bread into the flaked almonds and cover on both sides. Repeat with remaining bread slices. Fry in a non-stick pan over medium heat until golden and drain on a paper towel.

    Cook's note: Remove the ice cream from the freezer about 30 minutes before serving so that it so it scoops easily.
