How to Make This Recipe
Tips for Success
Make your own pumpkin puree instead of canned pumpkin puree for the most homemade pumpkin flavor. It’s best to use a high-powered blender for this recipe for the best results. You can use a large jar or measuring jug with an immersion blender if you need to. You might need to adjust the flavors, depending on the sweetness of your ice cream and pureed pumpkin. Always taste the milkshake and adjust according to your preferences before serving it, whether that means adding more spices or even a bit of brown sugar, maple syrup, or honey to sweeten it up a bit.
Substitutions and Variations
Use any kind of milk. Almond milk, coconut milk, or any non-dairy milk is a good milk substitute, along with a non-dairy vanilla ice cream for those looking for a dairy-free option. Add your favorite. Try adding a drizzle of caramel, melted white chocolate, chocolate curls, or mini baking chips for added sweetness. Add more flavor. Add some vanilla extract or almond extract to your milkshake for an added depth of flavor.
