Ingredients

Instructions

Step 1: Create The Flavoring –

  • In a small bowl, mix the pumpkin and vanilla extract until combined
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours

Step 2: Create the Custard –

  • In a saucepan, heat 1 1/2 cups of the heavy cream with 1/2 cup of the sweetener. Bring to a simmer, but do not let it come to a boil
  • In a medium bowl, mix the rest of the heavy cream and sweetener with the egg yolks, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and pumpkin spice until the sweetener has dissolved
  • Remove the cream mixture from the heat, and pour a small amount (~1/2 cup) into the egg yolk mixture. Whisk rapidly to prevent the egg from cooking. This should raise the temperature of the egg mixture
  • Combine the warmed egg mixture with the cream mixture in the pan, and then return to the heat. simmer over medium heat for 4-6 minutes, stirring constantly
  • When the mixture has thickened enough to coat the back of the spoon, strain it though a fine-mesh sieve and transfer it to a plastic or glass bowl and place in a larger bowl of ice water to cool while stirring occasionally
  • Once cooled, cover the custard with plastic wrap, allowing the plastic to touch the surface of the custard.
  • Refrigerate for at least 3 hours, up to overnight.
  • After it has sufficiently cooled, freeze the custard using an ice cream maker, or freeze manually by placing it in the freezer and stirring the mixture every 2-3 hours until frozen.
