Hi it’s Jo-Anna from ‘A Pretty Life‘, and I’m back to share another delicious recipe with you!  This time I wanted to share a dessert with all the flavours of pumpkin pie, but in a no-churn ice cream!  Ice cream seems to be one of those universally loved foods, and the beautiful thing about making home made ice cream is all the flavour combinations!  Really, the flavours possibilities are endless.  And since it’s fall, and pumpkin is all the rage, why not a pumpkin ice cream!  A perfect dessert idea for Thanksgiving weekend don’t you think?

Aside from being scrumptious, my goal for this recipe, was that I wanted it to be simple to make.  So many ice cream recipes require an ice cream maker to churn the ice cream, but for many of us that’s just not possible (not everyone has an ice cream maker).  With this recipe, you don’t have to churn it, in fact all you need is a blender.  The combination of the coconut milk with the sweetened condensed milk and pumpkin, all pureed together makes this ice cream very creamy.

Honestly, this will be one of the easiest desserts you will ever make.  No, it really will be.  If you can put all of the ingredients into a blender and give it a whir, you can make this, and you’ll be glad you did too!  It’s creamy, sweet and spicy.  And beautiful, no?  Just look at that gorgeous pumpkin colour!  Your guests will be impressed with your kitchen prowess.

Serve little bowls of this pumpkin ice cream for dessert with a delicious glass of Kendall-Jackson Vintner’s Reserve Chardonnay.  Chardonnay with dessert is perfection.

Enjoy!
