It’s that time of year when all the food lines start making everything pumpkin flavor so I thought I’d get a jump on it and make this Pumpkin Pie Frozen Yoghurt. I’d never made frozen yoghurt before, but how hard could it really be? Turns out it’s not! This recipe is so easy, so delicious, and the perfect thing to make when you have just a little bit of leftover pumpkin! The only fault (if you can call it one) is that this dessert has to be eaten the same day you make it… with such a high water content it will freeze into a giant block if you leave it overnight.
Pumpkin Pie Frozen Yoghurt
Serves 8
What you’ll need:
18 oz. vanilla flavored coconut milk yoghurt (I used Trader Joe’s brand)
2 tbsp. canned pumpkin
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
What you’ll do:
Blend all the ingredients together in a bowl with a hand mixer. Then either place in a ice cream maker and churn till desired texture or place the bowl of yoghurt in the freezer and stir every half hour until you’ve reached desired consistency about 4 1/2 hours.
Enjoy!
sharing this with my friends who just got an ice cream maker!!!
Thanks Lynn!
Yum! This sounds perfect for our new ice cream maker. I’ll get the hubby on this recipe stat!
This is such a great idea! I love pretty much anything pumpkin and I’m super excited to try this!
Yum! Just made this- it’s in the freezer getting ready for awesomeness.
The non-frozen base is sooo good! I used soy yogurt- vanilla. I used 12oz yogurt and the same amount of the remaining ingredients, for extra pumpkiny-goodness.
Hi Leslie,
Thanks for the awesome recipe. Would plain yogurt combined with a 1/2 or full tsp of vanilla extract suffice in place of vanilla yogurt?
Best,
Katie
yes 🙂
