Melissa
This recipe has all the flavors of fall wrapped up in a cool, frosty dessert. It tastes just like homemade pumpkin pie with a big dollop of whipped cream.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk (14 ounces)
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree (canned or fresh)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice (see notes for DIY mixture)
  • 2 cups heavy cream

Instructions
 

  • Whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, pumpkin puree, vanilla extract, and pumpkin pie spice in a small bowl until smooth. Set aside.
  • Whip the heavy cream with a hand or stand mixer until stiff peaks form.
  • Fold the pumpkin mixture into the whipped cream. Move the spatula down the middle of the bowl, then scoop and turn it over, drawing a lazy number 8 motion.
  • Pour into a freezer-safe container. Press parchment paper to the surface of the ice cream and then seal with an airtight lid or plastic wrap.
  • Freeze for at least 4 hours. Allow ice cream to sit at room temp for 5-10 minutes for easy scooping.

Notes

DIY Pumpkin Pie Spice Mixture:
  • 3 tablespoons cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons ground ginger
  • 1.5 teaspoons ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 teaspoon allspice
Tips:
  • If buying canned pumpkin, make sure to buy 100% pure pumpkin and not pumpkin pie filling.
  • Enjoy your ice cream within two weeks for the best flavor and texture.
  • If your container has a non-stick coating, line it with parchment paper to protect the coating from scratches when you scoop.
