INGREDIENT NOTES

Below are some notes about some of the ingredients for this pumpkin ice cream. Please see recipe card for measurements and instructions.

  • Heavy cream- Use cold, full fat heavy cream.
  • Sweetened condensed milk- You’ll need one can of sweetened condensed milk.
  • Pumpkin puree- Use 100% pure pumpkin puree. Be careful not to confuse pumpkin puree with pumpkin pie filling. They are not the same thing.
  • Cinnamon crumble- One of my favorite parts of pumpkin pie is the crust! This cinnamon crumble tastes like little bits of pie crust in the ice cream!
  • Brown butter- Use unsalted butter. The butter will be melted then browned. Browning the butter only takes minutes but adds such a nice toasty, nutty flavor. It gives butter more depth of flavor.

    I was looking for a way to use up pumpkin purée, and this was perfect! Tastes just like pumpkin pie. I might skip the browned butter swirl next time, but love the “pie crust” pieces! It adds a wonderful texture. Thanks for the great recipe!!
