How to Make Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together ½ cup granulated sugar, ¼ cup packed brown sugar, and 2 large eggs until light and frothy.
  2. Set aside.
  3. In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, gently heat 1 cup whole milk, 1 cup heavy cream, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. Heat until the edges begin to bubble; do not boil.
  5. Temper the eggs: Slowly pour about 1 cup of the warm milk mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to prevent scrambling.
  6. Add the tempered egg mixture back to the saucepan with the remaining milk and cream.
  7. Stir in 1 (15-ounce) can pumpkin puree, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground ginger, ¼ teaspoon ground cloves, and ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg.
  8. Cook over low heat, stirring frequently, until the custard thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon (about 5-7 minutes).
  9. Remove from heat and strain the custard through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl to remove any lumps.
  10. Let the custard cool completely in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
  11. Pour the chilled custard into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions (approximately 20-30 minutes).
