Add the pumpkin puree, mascarpone cheese and heavy cream in the bowl of your food processor.
Pulse until combined, then scrape down the sides.
Add in both sweeteners, maple syrup, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla and salt.
Continue mixing until well combined, then transfer to a freezer safe container.
Spread evenly, cover and allow to set up in the freezer.
Serve and enjoy!
☑️ Storage Instructions
Store the ice cream in a freezer-safe container with a tight-fitting lid. This helps prevent ice crystals from forming and keeps the ice cream fresh. If the container is full, leave a little space at the top to allow for expansion as the ice cream freezes.
It’s a good idea to label the container with the date you made the ice cream, so you can keep track of how long it's been in the freezer. For the best flavor and texture, try to enjoy your ice cream within 2-3 weeks.
💡 Tips for Making No-Churn Pumpkin Ice Cream
- Look at the label for 100% pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling. This helps to avoid added sugars and spices that could affect the flavor.
- This recipe is a no-churn, so you don’t need an ice cream maker. If you have one and prefer to use it, you certainly can. Just pour the blended mixture in your frozen insert and churn for about 25-30 minutes or until it reaches your desired consistency.
- Using allulose is key in this recipe, it’s what prevents the frozen yogurt from freezing super hard. If you don’t have allulose, you can use another sweetener you're familiar with. Just know that your frozen yogurt will freeze harder, than if you used allulose.
🔄 Substitutions and Additions
- Mascarpone cheese: Cream cheese can be a good alternative if you can’t find mascarpone. Just keep in mind that the texture will be slightly different.
- Unsweetened cocoa powder: For a chocolate twist, mix in a little unsweetened cocoa powder.
- Sugar-free chocolate chips: You can fold in some sugar-free chocolate chips before placing it in the freezer.
- Coconut flakes: Unsweetened coconut flakes go great with pumpkin flavor and they add wonderful texture too.
Is Canned Pumpkin Puree Keto Friendly?
You can certainly have pumpkin on Keto. There are only 7 net carbs in an entire ½ serving of pumpkin puree. Plus, pumpkin has a lot of health benefits also! It's loaded with vitamins and minerals including being a great source of beta-carotene that converts into vitamin A.

Can I Use Fresh Pumpkin Instead of Canned Pumpkin Puree?
Yes, you can use fresh pumpkin, but make sure it’s properly cooked and pureed until smooth for the best texture.
What If I Don’t Have a Food Processor?
No worries! You can just use a large mixing bowl and a hand mixer to blend the ingredients together until smooth.
What’s the Best Way to Serve this Ice Cream?
This ice cream is delicious on its own, but you can serve it with toppings like sugar-free whipped cream, chopped nuts, or a drizzle of this homemade Sugar-free Caramel Sauce.
Why is My Keto Ice Cream So Hard?
Usually, the type of sweetener you use is to blame. This recipe uses allulose which helps to keep it soft.
