How to Make Pumpkin Chai Ice Cream
This recipe starts out with a base of condensed milk and whipped cream. First, warm some of the whipped cream in the microwave or a double boiler. Just before it reaches a simmer, add a bag of chai tea.
Whipped cream will lose a little bit of the structural integrity when warmed. This is why we are only warming up a quarter cup of it. That lets us infuse the tea to get the delicious flavors, but we keep the protein structure of the whipped cream for the majority of the cream.
After your tea has infused for a few hours and chilled in the fridge, whip up all the cream in a stand mixer or a large bowl with a hand mixer. You want stiff peaks to form.
In a second bowl, combine the pumpkin, condensed milk, cinnamon, vanilla, and pinch of salt.
Next, gently fold the whipped cream into the pumpkin mixture. The whipped cream is what gives this ice cream structure without churning in an ice cream maker so it is VITAL that you are gentle when incorporating the whipped cream into the pumpkin.
After combined, place your ice cream into an airtight container and let rest in the freezer for a minimum of 6 hours, and preferably overnight.
That’s it!
