Ingredients
  

  • ¼ lb (1 stick) grass-fed butter
  • 1 can organic full-fat coconut milk
  • 1 15-oz can organic pumpkin puree
  • 1 T. vanilla extract
  • ½ c. organic grade B maple syrup (or 1 c. Date Paste)
  • 2 T. brandy (optional to promote a creamy texture)
  • 1 T. ground cinnamon
  • ¼ t. ground cloves
  • 2 c. raw pecans halves
  • 2 T. organic grade B maple syrup (optional)
  • 2 T. avocado oil
  • 1 t. vanilla extract
  • 2 T. ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 t. ground cloves
  • 1/8 t. ground cayenne pepper
  • ½ t. sea salt

Method
 

  1. Brown the butter: melt butter in a small skillet over medium-low heat.
  2. Continue to cook (butter will bubble) until butter turns a deep brown color. It should not smell burnt.
  3. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature. Make the ice cream: Combine coconut milk, pumpkin puree, vanilla extract, maple syrup, brandy, cinnamon, cloves, sea salt, and cooled browned butter in a large high-powered blender.
  4. Blend on high speed until mixture is smooth.
  5. Pour into a bowl and chill 4+ hours before processing in your ice cream maker.
  6. Once chilled, process according to your ice cream maker’s instructions. Move to the freezer for 2+ hours before serving.
  7. Serve with Candied Pecans, as desired. Make the candied pecans: preheat 325F.
  8. Line a half-sheet pan with parchment or silpat mat.
  9. Whisk together maple syrup, avocado oil, vanilla extract, cinnamon, cloves, cayenne, and sea salt in a large bowl.
  10. Toss in pecans and mix well.
  11. Spread onto parchment-lined sheet pan and bake 20-25 minutes, tossing 2-3 times throughout the cook time.
  12. Remove and let cool to room temperature.
  13. Serve with ice cream or enjoy alone as a sweet snack. Note: Pumpkin Pie Spice can be easily substituted for the cinnamon and cloves in the Spicy Candied Pecans
