4		egg yolks
25 g		date syrup
190 ml		semi-skimmed milk
90 ml		single cream
80 g		mascarpone
100 g		fresh figs (chopped, or soft dried figs soaked and blended)
30 g		skimmed milk powder
50 g		cottage cheese (blended smooth)
1/2 tsp	2.5 ml	cinnamon (optional)

Whisk egg yolks with date syrup until smooth, then gradually combine with milk and cream.
Heat gently over medium-low, stirring constantly, until slightly thickened and reaching 82–83ºC.
Remove from heat, stir in figs and cinnamon, allowing the mixture to soften and release flavour.
Add mascarpone, cottage cheese and milk powder, then blend until smooth and lightly thickened.
Let cool fully, strain if needed, then pour into a Ninja Swirl tub. Secure the lid and freeze flat for at least 24 hours.
Insert the frozen tub, assemble, then select SOFT SERVE, followed by SOFT SERVE GELATO.
Dispense immediately for a soft, creamy texture. Finish with a few fig pieces or a light drizzle of honey for a natural sweetness boost.
