This Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream is quite possibly my favorite dessert, and it’s absolutely guiltless—frozen or not. It’s healthy, delicious, highly evocative of comforting sweets, and very low in sugar.
Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream
Ingredients
- 2 cups carrot juice (fresh if possible, bottled if not)
- 3/4 cup chopped butternut squash
- 1/4 avocado
- 1/2 – 3/4 packet of stevia
- generous sprinkle of cinnamon
- small sprinkle of nutmeg
Instructions
- Blend all ingredients in a high speed blender till smooth and creamy. Freeze it overnight. When you’re ready to eat, let it soften (you can throw it in a food processor or Vitamix to give it a soft-serve texture if it’s gotten a little icy).
- If you don’t have a high speed blender or Vitamix, you could substitute steamed squash for raw and use a regular blender.

I love pumpkin all times of the year!!
The best is to chop it raw but for this you need a high speed blender or Vitamix. If you don’t then steam the squash. do not bake or grill.
Oh WOW, this sounds amazing. Do you bake the butternut squash, or chopp it raw?
