This Paleo Pumpkin Ice Cream has all the spices of pumpkin pie and is so creamy and delicious! Only 6 ingredients, it’s dairy free, naturally sweetened and easy to make!
I have always loved everything pumpkin- long before it was cool 🙂 I remember when I was a teenager making pumpkin bread, cookies, cake- pretty much anything I could once fall came around. This is the first time I have tried pumpkin ice cream though and oh- it did not disappoint! All my favorite flavors packed in a frozen dessert-yum!
It is so easy to make- only 6 ingredients and less than 10 minutes of prep. It does have to chill in the fridge before churning so you have to plan ahead a little. Once you put it in the ice cream maker, you can eat it right away at the consistency of soft serve, or freeze it for a harder ice cream. The gelatin keeps it from getting icy in the freezer, so that is an important ingredient. I always buy my gelatin from Perfect Supplements– it’s comes from grass-fed, pasture raised cows. Use code “JAY10” for 10% off your order.
The flavor of this ice cream is incredible! It tastes just like pumpkin pie, but in ice cream form. Maple syrup is the perfect sweetener for it because it pairs so well with the pumpkin and spices. I love that I was able to share this with my 11 month old because the ingredients are all healthy. Yes, it’s still a treat with maple, but I make so much stuff she can’t have (with nuts or honey) that is was nice sharing with her. She absolutely loved it!
You will love this ice cream because it is simple to make and so delicious! The perfect fall treat!
