I scream. You scream. We all scream for ice cream! And trust me, you will definitely be screaming for more of this Pumpkin Maple Pecan Ice Cream.

My ice cream maker has been putting in some over time these last few months because it tastes better than most store-bought brands and it's just so easy to make at home; especially when you can control the ingredients that go into it.

I wanted to come up with a new Fall flavor to celebrate this time of year and pumpkin, maple and pecan sounded like the perfect combination to me.

Pumplin Maple Pecan Ice Cream

Ingredients Needed

For this recipe you'll need the following ingredients: 

  • Half and Half
  • Granulated Sugar
  • Heavy Cream
  • Pumpkin Puree
  • Maple Syrup
  • Vanilla Extract
  • Chopped Pecans

As far as equipment goes, you'll need an ice cream maker. The one we have is super easy to use, but you will need to make sure the insert has been frozen for at least one day before you prepare the ice cream.

How do you make Pumpkin Maple Pecan Ice Cream?

Start by placing the half and half and sugar in a large bowl and blend with an electric handheld mixer until the sugar dissolves. Next, blend in the heavy cream, pumpkin puree, maple syrup and vanilla extract and mix until smooth.

Pour the mixture into your pre-frozen ice cream maker insert, turn on the machine and churn for approximately 30 minutes until the mixture thickens. Add the chopped pecans and mix with a spoon.

Finally, transfer the ice cream into an airtight freezer safe container and place in the freezer for a minimum of 2 hours before serving. I also like to cover the ice cream with plastic wrap before putting on the lid.

 

This Pumpkin Maple Pecan Ice Cream was delicious, not too sweet with just the right about of buttery maple flavor. Because it is orange in color due to the pumpkin, it makes for a festive dessert for Thanksgiving or any time during the Fall season.
