Description

Pumpkin pie ice cream takes one of the best Thanksgiving pie flavors and turns it into a creamy treat! With notes of pumpkin, cinnamon, and brown sugar, this ice cream checks all the boxes on a delicious fall treat (that you might find yourself making even after the temperatures get above 60F).

Note: 1 serving = 1 pint

Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon Cream Cheese
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • 1/3 cup Light Brown Sugar
  • 1 cup Whole Milk
  • 3/4 cups Heavy Cream
  • 3 tablespoons Pumpkin Puree
  • A Few drops Yellow + Red Food Coloring (Optional)
Instructions

  1. Place 1 tbsp cream cheese in a medium bowl and microwave for 5-10 seconds. If the cream cheese was in the fridge, these 5-10 seconds in the microwave will help soften it up to mix well with the other ingredients.

  2. Combine cream cheese with 1 tsp cinnamon, 1 tsp vanilla extract, and 1/3 cup light brown sugar. Whisk until the ingredients are mixed together.

  3. Slowly whisk in 1 cup whole milk, 3/4 cup heavy cream, and 3 tbsp pumpkin puree.

  4. Whisk in a few drops of yellow + red food coloring until the mixture is the desired color.

  5. Pour the mixture into a Ninja Creami pint container, ensuring it does not go over the max fill line.

  6. Freeze the pint for 24 hours, making sure it is placed on a flat surface in the freezer.

  7. After 24 hours, remove the pint from the freezer, and plug in your Ninja Creami machine! Time for the magic.

    Remove the lid from the pint and grab the Ninja Creami outer bowl. Place the pint securely into the outer bowl and cover with the lid. Once the lid is on, place the outer bowl into the machine, twisting to the right until it locks into place. Press the "Ice Cream" button and (try to) wait patiently for the creamy treat coming your way.

  8. Once the process is finished, press and hold the button on the left side of the Creami to twist the bowl to the left and remove it from the machine. Twist the lid off of the outer bowl and remove the pint.

  9. Now your pumpkin pie ice cream is ready to enjoy!

Note

If you don't like following recipes, don't worry - you can customize it however you want! We personally use oat milk and coconut cream to avoid most of the dairy, and it's some of the best ice cream we've ever had. If you want to try pumpkin spice instead of cinnamon, go for it! You can never have too much pumpkin, in my opinion.
