Is anyone else as excited as I am? I love pumpkin season. Seriously. Stinkin. Love. It.

I could write love songs about pumpkin season or sonnets. And it totally cracks me up that one of Goose’s favorite words right now is, “Punkin!”

I go totally 100 percent basic girl come October and sport my yoga pants and Uggs while I hold my pumpkin spice latte proudly.

Yep, that girl that all those memes are about. That would be me.

I could be embarrassed about it, but instead I choose to own it. When my intense pumpkin craving starts in like July and I whine about how it’s taking SO LONG for pumpkin spice coffee to make its comeback, I get creative about scratching my pumpkin itch. I make frozen pumpkin things that don’t require baking like my frozen pumpkin pie.

Now that it’s the end of August, the pumpkin urge is so strong. The pumpkin is practically calling my name. But, it’s still hot out. So it would be kind of weird for me to bake a pumpkin pie or drink a hot pumpkin spice coffee, right?

Enter this no churn pumpkin ice cream with caramel walnut swirl. OMG. I swoon. Ice cream + pumpkin = heaven. Seriously heaven. Ice cream is my very favorite thing to eat. I have very close friendships formed solely on a mutual love of ice cream. Not even kidding a little. I met my best post school era friend because I was an ice cream shop junky and she happened to work there. Yep. That’s how often I was there.

Sad but true.

Anyway, back to this ice cream. It’s creamy, delicious and packed with all my favorite fall flavors. Pumpkin? Check. Cinnamon? Check. A hint of ginger? Check. Even better. It swirls those flavors with a delicious ribbon of caramel sauce and walnuts.

Plus, it’s easy. From start to freezer ready took 5 easy minutes while the Goose was on my hip, reaching her grubby little hands into the bowl, trying to touch the ice cream mix.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1 cup of pumpkin puree
  • 14 ounces of sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 tbs cinnamon
  • 1 tsp of ginger
  • 1 tbs vanilla
  • 1 cup of premade caramel topping
  • 1 cup of walnuts chopped

Instructions

  • In a stand mixer, using the wire whisk attachment, whip the cold heavy whipping cream and the tablespoon of vanilla until soft peaks form.
  • While the heavy whipping cream is being whipped, in a separate bowl, whisk together the pumpkin, sweetened condensed milk, cinnamon and ginger until thoroughly combined. Set aside.
  • When the whipping cream is ready, gently fold in the pumpkin mix. Continue to fold until the mix is combined.
  • Pour half the mixture into a large freezer safe container. Pour half of the caramel sauce on. Top with nuts. Pour the rest of the cream mixture into the container. Top with the rest of the caramel and nuts. Gently fold a few times so the caramel layers swirl through the ice cream.
  • Freeze for 4-6 hours or until set.

  4. […] I was going to make a really trashed up pumpkin pie, but I took pity on my pumpkin tolerating husband. Like he told you all, he was happy to have a break from pumpkin when we made the Cranberry Orange Chicken. He’s just not a pumpkin lover, and I am. I have forced it down his throat since the end of August when I made no churn pumpkin ice creamย with caramel swirl. […]

  5. […] I call it just being me. This time of year my blood bleeds pumpkin spice. I’d gobble up pumpkin for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. And really let’s not forget dessert. Because pumpkin dessert=heaven. […]

  15. Kim P says:

    Love this! So ready for pumpkin season! We are growing some this year and it is my fall obsession. I can’t wait for harvest time.

  18. Laina Turner says:

    I hate to see summer go but I love fall and all things pumpkin. I can;t wait to try this. It’s ben added to the list of pumpkin things I make every year!

    • jfletcher says:

      I know, I hate the end of summer too. I always get a smidge sad this time of year even though the ber months are my favorite. I guess it’s left over from school days. But I truly will miss being able to go to the pool with my daughter.

  19. Abby says:

    I had homemade ice cream for the first time this summer and loved it. My husband also loved it because you have control over how sweet, or in his case not sweet, you want it

  20. Amy Scott says:

    I’m not a huge pumpkin flavor fan but for some reason I think I’d like it as ice cream paired with the caramel ๐Ÿ™‚

    • jfletcher says:

      I was late to the pumpkin bandwagon. I just fell in love with it a few years ago. I needed a good gateway pumpkin thing. For me it was froyo. Try this, it’s not hard core pumpkiny but has the nice sweet pumpkin notes in it. Perfect gateway pumpkin.

  21. Unusual combination but looks absolutely delicious. Bookmarked!

  22. Leah says:

    Sounds so lovely, and a perfect recipe for fall! Yay for pumpkin!

  23. Lacey says:

    This time of year I am all about anything pumpkin so thank you for sharing this. I want to try this out!

  24. Amanda says:

    I thought I had posted this, but maybe not. If I double dipped (pun intended), forgive me.Pumpkin always makes me think of Fall.Here in south Florida, it is warm, or even hot, most of the year. This is a perfect solution: Pumpkin Ice-cream!

  25. Amanda says:

    Pumpkin always makes me think of Fall. In south Florida it can be as warm in the Fall (and even December) as it is a good part of the year. Pumpkin ice-cream is a perfect treat.

    • jfletcher says:

      I’ve been to Miami in the middle of February and it made me laugh because my husband and I were hitting the beach and wearing shorts and the locals were in fur coats! It was like 80 degrees during the day. We live in the northeast so it was fab for us. But I would totally miss fall. And yes, I was thinking about all you Floridians with this pumpkin ice cream.

  26. Lauren says:

    This looks so amazing! I pinned for later, I have a kitchen aid my mom gave me that I havent even used yet.. this looks like the perfect recipe to start with

    • jfletcher says:

      OMG bust out that kitchen aid now girl! This is the perfect way to break it in. PS. I am obsessed with my kitchen aid. I love it almost as much as I love pumpkin…and that’s a lot.

  27. Agnes says:

    This looks and sound delicious. Love anything with caramel, yummy!

  28. ***rushes to store to buy pumpkin puree*** It’s not even fair how tasty this recipe looks. Definitely adding this to my recipe collection for the fall.

  29. Melanie says:
