Vegan Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream & Halloween Ice Cream Bars

October 21, 2013 By JJ 27 Comments

Vegan Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream Bars for Halloween

Pumpkin makes me think of autumn, simple as that. Overflowing bins of carving pumpkins just crying out to become jack-o-lanterns. Costumes and candy and festive parties and crazy decorations. The promise of Pumpkin Pie at rapidly approaching holiday dinners.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, no matter how long I live in Australia I still associate end of year holidays with cold weather — and Halloween falls firmly in this category.

Vegan Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream Bars for Halloween

People in many parts of the world don’t understand sweet pumpkin desserts. They turn their noses up, opting instead for apple or chocolate or lemon, having no idea what they are missing out on. Growing up if you had asked me if we ever ate pumpkin in anything other than pie I would have said no, but that’s not quite true…

Mom used to make baked Acorn Squash for dinner quite often and each Thanksgiving and Christmas would see mashed Butternut Squash on the table next to the sweet potatoes and stuffing. But we called those things ‘squash’ not ‘pumpkin’ and — while they were served with the savoury portion of the meal — they still had brown sugar mixed in or sprinkled over top giving them a distinctively sweet kick

Up until relatively recently America-land didn’t embrace pumpkin in savoury dishes — and the rest of the world didn’t really embrace it in sweet dishes — but thanks to Pinterest and the ever increasing availability of digital versions of cooking magazines the lines are starting to blur. To someone as mad about pumpkin as I, this is not a bad thing!

But let’s get back to Halloween for a moment and the fact that in Sydney the temperatures are hovering around the 80’s and 90’s, reminding me that summer is fast approaching.

The temperature is good news for people who use Halloween as an excuse to dress up as some variation of sexy nurse-doctor-super hero-watermelon-cat-bunny-miley cyrus wtf but is also a firm reminder that I should not be turning on the oven for anything remotely Halloween related.

So what to do about my–never–ending–Pumpkin–Pie–craving and what to make for the Halloween themed October Sweet Adventures Blog Hop I’m hosting? Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream all dressed up for a festive Halloween party, that’s what.

You’ll find the instructions on how to add your #SABH post below the recipes. Have a very Happy Halloween and don’t forget to check out all the other ghoulish Halloween creations that have been linked up!

Vegan Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream

Vegan Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream Bars for HalloweenYou’d be forgiven for wanting to stop at the custard stage of this recipe and simply eat the entire bowl with a spoon but I urge you to persevere and make it into ice cream — what you do after that point is entirely up to you! Spoon it into a bowl and top with whipped coconut cream, make it into Halloween Ice Cream Bars or even spread it into a pre-baked or raw pie crust and make a Vegan Ice Cream Pumpkin Pie — the genius never ceases I tell you.

Makes 1 litre (1 quart)

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 c coconut cream
  • 1 c almond or other non-dairy milk
  • 1/4 – 1/2 c rice syrup, honey (not vegan) or coconut sugar to taste
  • 1 Tbsp pumpkin pie spice (or 2 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 tsp ginger, 1/4 tsp each cloves, nutmeg, allspice)
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 2 Tbsp cornflour (corn starch) dissolved in 3 Tbsp cold water
  • 2 c roasted pumpkin puree
  • 1 Tbsp bourbon, optional

METHOD

Over medium heat warm coconut cream, almond milk, sweetener and spices in a large heavy-based sauce pan until just simmering.

Drizzle in cornflour/water mixture, whisking vigorously to avoid lumps. Quickly whisk in pumpkin puree and cook, still whisking, for 3 mins until thick and bubbly.

Scrape into a heat-proof bowl and refrigerate until cold. Stir bourbon into cold custard if using and churn according to ice cream maker instructions.

Move into a container to freeze, eat as is or follow instructions below to make Halloween Ice Cream Bars.

COOK’S NOTES

  • If you don’t have an ice cream maker, freeze cooled custard in a shallow dish, stirring every 30 mins until thick and frozen. You can use an immersion blender or processor to make it really smooth once frozen.
  • The bourbon (or any alcohol really) will lower the freezing temp of the ice cream, making it easier to scoop but isn’t necessary. Just leave the container out on the bench for 10 mins or so before serving.

Pumpkin & Chocolate Halloween Ice Cream Bars

Vegan Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream Bars for HalloweenWho needs cookies when you can have Halloween shaped Ice Cream Bars? You could do this with any shape and for any occasion but it’s almost Halloween so that’s what I’m sticking with! Make sure to mash the off-cuts into a container and freeze for sneaky spoonfuls later on.

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 batch Vegan Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream
  • 1 or 2 batches Vegan Chocolate Ice Cream
  • 1 batch Vegan Chocolate Magic Shell
  • 1 batch Vegan Green Goo Magic Shell

METHOD

Use an off-set spatula to spread soft, just-churned, ice cream into a shallow baking paper (parchment) lined tray. Ice cream should be minimum 1.5 cm (.75 in) thick. Freeze a few hours or overnight until firm.

Let trays sit out for 5 – 10 mins to just soften then use large Halloween shaped cookie cutters to press out ice cream bars — try to avoid shapes with really tight corners. Use your off-set spatula to move cutouts to another lined tray and freeze 30 mins or so until firm.

Dip or drizzle with Chocolate or Green Goo Magic Shell, covering completely with a thin layer or just making a decorative pattern, and return to freezer until ready to serve.

Have a Happy Halloween!

    JJ I can’t wait to have a go of this ice-cream. You could hardly call it naughty it’s more like a health treat. I’ll admit, I hosted my first Thanksgiving dinner last year and made pumpkin pie for the first time expecting it to be awful. One bite and I was hooked. Now I love sweet pumpkin treats!

I took this video on Jan 1. I even wrote a caption I took this video on Jan 1. I even wrote a caption and everything. And I intended to post it that day as a reflection moving into a new year. But instead, mom and I went out for pizza and wine, and then it was Jan 2, and so on and so on. 
🌀
So instead you’re getting it on Feb 1. A new day and another new month (but what is a new month or a new year, other than a societal convention really). 
☀️
Because, each day, each sunrise, we have the opportunity to start anew - no matter how big or little that start may be. A chance to take another step forward - no matter how many steps back you feel you’re fighting against. 
🌀
Whether this past year brought blinding joy or paralysing grief (and in whatever measure of balance or imbalance), I hope each new day sees the landscape of your life look one step closer to what you imagine it to be. And that when the waves roll in and change that landscape, you can roll with it and see the beauty and possibility on the other side.
🌊
If you’ve made it this far, congratulations, have a cookie 🍪 And I’ll leave you with the rolling waves and blue sky of a California beach in January. I truly hope this year sees us all grow stronger and move forward with each new day. Going backwards is simply not an option.

When the middle little insisted on buying quail eggs over Christmas, but due to allll the other food we never cooked them, I simply couldn’t let the little guys go to waste.

Could I have made one dish? Of course. Did I instead prepare quail eggs four ways, bake mini loaves of brioche, make mini waffles, dig through the prop closet for the smallest dishes, and set up an entire table? Of course I did.

My go-to pizza topping combo 🍕 Made on that dou My go-to pizza topping combo 🍕 Made on that dough from a couple weeks ago and voiced by the middle little (who is about as different from her younger sister as you can get!) 💥.
🍕
Sometimes this combo gets prawns too 🍤. Most of the time I don’t bother mixing the ingredients in a bowl and just layer them on top. The cheese is a hard goat cheese (because I can’t do 🐄). The ‘spices’ 🌱 is Sicilian oregano. The measurements are random at best - a handful of this, a splash of that. 
🍕
If you have a fave veggie or seafood pizza combo I’d love to hear it. Because as Ms.S says, voila, yummy yummy pizza!
Flowers for your Friday, that is all.

The full recipe with all the info is over on my site (⛓ in profile and all that jazz), along with a longer version of the video. Because a 5yo singing - SINGING - about rolling dough into balls is ah-mazing.

Ingredients, for those wondering:
* whole spelt flour
* white 00 pizza flour
* water
* sourdough starter discard
* active dry yeast
* kosher salt
* millet flour (for shaping)
⏲ All the times and weights are in that aforementioned post - plus opts to bake right away vs letting it all ferment for a day or two... There’s also a list of equipment I use, and my personal flour and pizza oven faves. Now go have a pizza party! 🍕🎉

I actually made these Cornish Hens for Christmas last year too and they’ll be on the menu again this year. It’s a perfect holiday feast solution for a small group with only a few meat eaters, but also if you simply can’t be bothered to tackle a turkey!

There seems to be a common thread this year of people asking in stories if it’s ok to start decorating for 🎄 already - my answer, every time, is ‘the world is on fire, time has no meaning, go for your life’. Am I wrong? (I’m not, haha) I may even put up a tree here more than 3 days before (I do keep it up until Easter though, so who knows 😜). Are you getting festive already or do you have hard and fast rules about these things?
