Unique Dessert Creation: Spiced Pumpkin and Bacon Ice Cream

Welcome, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share with you a quirky and delicious dessert creation that combines the rich flavors of spiced pumpkin and crispy bacon in a creamy ice cream. This unique dessert is perfect for those looking to try something new that will tantalize their taste buds.

Ingredients:

• 200g canned pumpkin puree
• 150g cooked bacon, crumbled
• 300ml heavy cream
• 150ml whole milk
• 100g brown sugar
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp nutmeg
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/4 tsp salt

Kitchen Tools:

• mixing bowl
• whisk
• saucepan
• ice cream maker

To start, in a saucepan over medium heat, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, and brown sugar. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved. Add in the canned pumpkin puree, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla extract, and salt. Whisk until everything is well combined and the mixture is smooth.

Remove the saucepan from heat and let the mixture cool to room temperature. Once cooled, cover the mixture and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until thoroughly chilled.

After the mixture has chilled, pour it into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions. During the last few minutes of churning, add in the crumbled bacon pieces to incorporate them into the ice cream.

Transfer the ice cream to a container and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm. Serve scoops of the spiced pumpkin and bacon ice cream in bowls or cones, and enjoy the unique combination of flavors!

The approximate total weight of the cooked dish is 800g, with 6 servings. Each serving weighs around 133g, and has an estimated calorie count of 250 calories.

Clever Tip:

To enhance the bacon flavor in the ice cream, try sprinkling a little extra cooked bacon on top of each serving just before serving. It will add a delightful crunch and intensify the savory notes of the dish.
