Ingredients
Pumpkin Preparation
- 1 medium Pumpkin about 1 1/2 cups cooked puree
Creamy Base
- 1 cup Buttermilk
- 1/2 cup Heavy Cream fresh
- 3/4 cup Sugar granulated
- 2 tsp Ginger Paste
- 1/2 tsp Salt or to taste
- 1/2 cup Sarsaparilla Syrup nannari sarbath
- 2 tbsp Corn Flour or arrowroot powder
Instructions
Prepare the Pumpkin
- Chop the pumpkin into small pieces and boil until tender. Allow to cool completely. Puree the cooked pumpkin until smooth using a blender or food processor.
Make the Spice Blend
- In a small bowl, combine the ground cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and cloves.
Combine Ingredients
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together the buttermilk, heavy cream, sugar, ginger paste, salt, and pumpkin puree.
Cook the Custard
- Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of cold water to form a slurry. Once the pumpkin mixture begins to simmer, slowly whisk in the cornstarch slurry. Continue to cook and stir constantly until the custard thickens, about 6-8 minutes.
Add Sarsaparilla and Spices
- Stir in the sarsaparilla syrup and spice blend. Cook for another minute, stirring constantly, until well combined.
Cool and Chill
- Remove from heat and allow the custard to cool completely. Once cool, stir in the fresh cream until smooth and well incorporated.
Freeze
- Pour the custard into an airtight container and freeze for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight, until firm. Alternatively, churn in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions.
Serve and Enjoy
- Scoop the ice cream into bowls and garnish with a sprinkle of nutmeg, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for the Best Eggless Pumpkin Sarsaparilla Ice Cream
- For a richer flavor, use homemade pumpkin puree. Roast the pumpkin before pureeing for an even deeper flavor.
- Adjust the amount of sugar to your preference. Taste the custard before freezing and add more sugar if needed.
- If you don't have sarsaparilla syrup, you can substitute with another root beer or dark fruit syrup for a similar flavor profile.
- For a smoother ice cream, let the custard cool completely before freezing to prevent ice crystals from forming.
