Ingredients

• 2 cups Heavy cream
• 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
• 1 cup Pumpkin puree
• 1 cup Erythritol or preferred low-carb sweetener
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 teaspoons Pumpkin pie spice
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Xanthan gum

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream and almond milk. Whisk well to blend the two liquids together.

Step 2

Add the pumpkin puree to the cream mixture and whisk until fully incorporated.

Step 3

Stir in the erythritol (or your chosen low-carb sweetener), making sure it is thoroughly dissolved.

Step 4

Add the vanilla extract, pumpkin pie spice, and salt to the mixture and whisk until all ingredients are blended.

Step 5

Sprinkle the xanthan gum over the surface of the mixture. Whisk vigorously to prevent lumps from forming. This will help thicken the ice cream base.

Step 6

Transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, typically for about 20-25 minutes, until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.

Step 7

If you prefer a firmer texture, transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours or until the desired consistency is achieved.

Step 8

Serve with a sprinkle of extra pumpkin pie spice if desired. Store leftovers in the freezer and let soften slightly before serving.
