Pumpkin Ice Cream

October 8, 2014 · 3 Comments

Pumpkin Ice CreamWhen the first signs of Fall become noticeable, the scents and taste of pumpkin seem to appear everywhere. But do you ever indulge in one of these treats and taste nothing but artificial flavors? For me, I’d rather have the real taste of pumpkin, with those earthy chunks. And since ice cream is always in season for me, I wanted my first pumpkin recipe of the season to be an homage to this fall favorite of mine. If you have the time I recommend roasting and making your own puree, you can follow these directions, but if not use an organic unflavored brand of pumpkin puree. This ice cream was creamy and smooth, like the silky decadence of pumpkin pie, and had all the flavors to match it. Comforting and rich spices fleck throughout, making each bite taste of the earthy, yet subtly sweet pumpkin and warm spices. The ice cream seriously has the flavor of a simple and amazing pumpkin pie, without all those artificial flavors. And even though you might be eyeing that pumpkin latte or warm piece of pie, I highly suggest you get your pumpkin fix with this ice cream.

Pumpkin Ice Cream 

Ingredients

3/4 cups – Pumpkin Puree {roast your own pumpkin, or use an organic unflavored canned brand}

2 cups – Heavy Cream

1/2 cup – 2% Milk

1/2 teaspoon – Coarse Salt

3/4 cup – Dark Brown Sugar {packed}

5 large – Egg Yolks

1/4 teaspoon – Ground Cinnamon

1/8 teaspoon – Ground Ginger

1/8 teaspoon – Ground All Spice

1/8 teaspoon – Ground Cloves

Pinch of Ground Nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon – Pure Vanilla Extract

Recipe 

To make the base, stir the cream, milk, pumpkin puree, half of the sugar {6 tablespoons} and salt into a saucepan over medium-high heat. Meanwhile, whisk the yolks, just to break them up, then add the remaining sugar, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, all spice and nutmeg, and whisk until combined. Set aside. When the cream mixture begins to bubble around the edge, turn heat down low, and slowly ladle about 1/2 cup of the hot milk-cream base into the yolk mixture, while whisking quickly. Add one more ladle of the hot mixture into the yolks, and whisk. Stir the cream base as you slowly add the egg-cream mixture back into the saucepan. Setup a clean bowl over an ice-water bath, and set aside.

Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until it has thickened, about 1 to 2 minutes. The mixture should coat the back of a wooden spoon, holding a clear path when you run your finger. Strain the base through a fine-mesh strainer into the clean container, over ice. With a clean spatula, stir the base frequently until it has cooled to room temperature, remove from ice-water bath, and stir in vanilla. Cover with plastic wrap right onto the surface, refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.

Freeze the ice cream, in your ice cream machine following your manufacturer’s directions. While the ice cream churns, put the container that you’ll keep your ice cream in the freezer. The ice cream is ready once it reaches the consistency of soft-serve, or the paddle creates a distinctive path as it churns. Enjoy right away, or place in your container, and freeze at least 4 hours.

Dreamery Headshot_2020

I love everything about entertaining. Flowers are my weakness, a slice of homemade pie makes my heart sing & I’m a sucker for wedding videos. Travel is a constant source of inspiration and motivation. I dream about these things, it’s true. But what I love most, is working with amazing people to create meaningful & unique celebrations…..

This week may have been a lot but at least it ende This week may have been a lot but at least it ended w. pretty flowers for little Adelaide! Her 3rd birthday may not be as big as her “Some Bunny is 1” or “Peppa Pig Muddy Puddles” celebrations but her loved ones are sure to make her special day “Berry Sweet”🍓🌸
E X P A N S I O N — "the act or process of expan E X P A N S I O N — "the act or process of expanding"💫

this year I choose to expand on the
lessons last year served us...
I expand upon all my visions, dreams & intentions
I aim to expand on love, abundance, health, joy, comfort, courage, creativity, adventure, calm, authenticity, w.e big or small that makes my soul sing & thus expand upon my growth.
But I wholeheartedly hope that this year can help others expand on all the good things they want as well -- especially in global terms🤍

I haven't set resolutions in years, instead I always set intentions -- little things that become part of who I am & in turn become the steps to bring all those images I'm inspired by, into life in my own way.

I'm simplifying even more & stripping it down, choosing to always show myself, & others,
more Grace. I quite enjoy this slow but intentional path. Yes, embracing a fresh new start seems appealing, but there’s much uncertainty still to face & we have a whole year ahead of us.

There’s time to get it done so no need to rush into it...show yourself & others some grace, be a Kind human always, because anything can happen✨
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Adeus 2020... It‘ll be impossible to forget you, Adeus 2020...
It‘ll be impossible to forget you, you broke us, but you also reminded us how we resilient we are. Your chapter is closed, good riddance!!

Ironically my word for 2020 was “Bliss” yet despite all the grief, the heartbreak + emotional rollercoaster I think all of us, although at times hard, did see the silver linings this past year brought. Personally, I realized early on the immense amount of Bliss that was already present in my life, perhaps more so if this year wasn’t what it was.

No, there weren’t Big Blissful moments or travels, but there was so many moments to enjoy the simple pleasures of every day. More time in the garden, a newfound excitement in the kitchen, endless cloud gazing — birdsong listening — butterfly + dragonfly catching — soothing sunsets + always stopping to smell the roses moments. Blissful moments to create whatever it was I felt like doing, moments to appreciate what truly matters in life + what of that is what always needs to be present in life. The chance to escape in the safety of nature + loved ones. The blissful opportunity to rest, to mentally wander, to learn what stillness really is. 

I gave myself grace this year & a well deserved pat on the back, & I really hope you did the same!! As I sail into 2021 I remember just how important all these moments are for growth + Expansion…

Things won’t change right away but all I can wish for all of us in 2021 is abundance, health, unity, joy & Love🤍🤍
Want to wish you all & your loved ones a very Merr Want to wish you all & your loved ones a very Merry Christmas🤍❄️ this year certainly doesn’t feel the same, we’re not gathering w. our loved ones, in fact for many this holiday season has been even more stress inducing than other years. But it doesn’t mean it can’t be magical & wonderful & beautiful whether you’re with your kids, your parents or spending it alone. Don’t forget to make it special & honor your favorite traditions, even if just for yourself!!

May these final days of the year be calm, be love & may brighter days shine upon us all next year✨🌿
