We love having a scoop of ice cream with a slice of pumpkin pie. So why not combine them into one delicious treat: Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream? It is a no-brainer!
This treat is perfectly spiced for Fall and silky cream smooth in ice cream form. It is the best of both worlds.
If you are not a huge pumpkin fan (gasp!), this may be the recipe for you, as the pumpkin is not overpowering when combined with the heavy cream. Instead, the pumpkin flavor, whipping cream, sweetened condensed milk, and spices come together to create an ice cream that can be enjoyed year-round, not just during the Fall or on Thanksgiving!
With this No Churn Pumpkin Ice Cream recipe, you can get your pumpkin fix during the hot summer months! Or enjoy it during the Fall when you want all things pumpkin without spending hours in your kitchen baking something.
