Ingredients

PUMPKIN ICE CREAM

  • 2 eggs

  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 2 cups canned pumpkin
  • 2 cups whipping cream
  • ½ cup milk (2%, homo or half and half)
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon cloves
  • ½ teaspoon ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • In a stand mixer beat eggs and both sugars until light, about 3 minutes.
  • Add remaining ingredients and mix. Pour into ice cream maker. Freeze according to manufacturers instructions.
  • Serve plain or with bourbon caramel sauce and candied sweet and salty pumpkin seeds. See recipe links in notes below.

Notes

With my Donvier ice cream maker I turn it by hand every 3-5 minutes and it makes soft ice cream in about 20 minutes. I make ice cream before dinner then put the frozen container in the freezer and the ice cream is a nice, scoopable consistency by the time I serve dessert.
Top your ice cream with both these pumpkin seeds and caramel sauce for a decadent dessert.
