It’s always a good time for ice cream! Enjoy this fall-themed flavor all year long. Keto pumpkin ice cream tastes like pumpkin pie.
Keto Ice Cream
Save time and money and instead of trying to buy keto-friendly ice cream from the store, make it at home. No, you don’t need an ice cream maker.
All you need is an electric mixer and a mixing bowl. Using a stand mixer will save you time, but it’s not required.
Then, you just pop it into the freezer and let it set. That’s it!
I froze my ice cream in a parchment paper-lined loaf pan. But you can store it in any kind of freezer-safe container that you want to use.
I suggest making sure that it’s easy to scoop from before you use it.
Pumpkin Ice Cream
There are just six simple ingredients in this ice cream recipe. The two main ingredients are heavy whipping cream and pumpkin puree.
I then added some almond milk to make it not quite as thick. Remember to use unsweetened, plain almond milk.
If you use vanilla almond milk, don’t add extra vanilla to the ice cream.
Can you use coconut milk instead of almond milk? Yes, you sure can!
Use unsweetened coconut milk to keep it low-carb. And add your favorite ingredients as mix-ins, too.
You can mix in some sugar-free white or chocolate chips or add unsweetened coconut flakes. For more protein and health fats, sprinkle chopped nuts on top and to recreate the pumpkin pie flavor, top the ice cream with some sugar-free whipped cream.
Easy Homemade Ice Cream
There are so many different ways to make keto-friendly ice cream. I’ve made low-carb cottage cheese ice cream before and it turned out deliciously creamy.
If you prefer fruity flavors, then you will probably enjoy keto strawberry ice cream. Yes, it’s made with real strawberries!
You can also make a rich keto chocolate ice cream or a refreshingly tasty keto mint chocolate chip ice cream. And this pumpkin ice cream fits in with them.
Serve it on top of a chaffle, in a bowl, or on top of your favorite flavor of keto-friendly pie.
What To Eat With Ice Cream
This pumpkin ice cream goes with almost any dessert that you make! Add some keto air fryer cinnamon sugar twists to a bowl of ice cream or go healthier and make some keto chocolate chip zucchini muffins with it.
If you’re going to serve the ice cream at a party, then make some low-carb cream cheese peach roll-ups or keto TikTok chocolate covered blueberry bites with the ice cream.
How Long Does Ice Cream Last
Store your homemade, no churn ice cream in a sealed container and keep it frozen. It’s best if you eat it within six months.
This ice cream softens up really quickly, but leave time for that. It’s pretty solid when it freezes completely.
You can also make it easier to scoop by placing your ice cream scoop in a bowl of hot water before you use it.
