Keto Pumpkin Ice Cream Pie (THM S)

Looking for the perfect fall or holiday dessert for your low carb diet? This Keto pumpkin ice cream pie is the perfect way to indulge without guilt.

Pumpkin meets sugar free ice cream and lies on top of a delicious and flavorful pecan crust. Tell me, why did we eat sugar before? Because once you try this ice cream pie, you will wonder that too!

This recipe was actually inspired by & lightly adapted from a Breyers pumpkin ice cream pie that I saw on Pinterest. I switched up a few things like the crust, sweeteners and ice cream to make it compatible for Keto, Low Carb and Trim Healthy Mama (S) lifestyles. 

And the best part? Aside from it tasting like a piece of pumpkin pie swirled with vanilla ice cream. It is really pretty easy to make. The only hard part is waiting for it to freeze back up after you mix it.

Keto Pumpkin Ice Cream Pie

The pie starts off with a pecan crust. I first made this crust for my double layer Keto pumpkin cheesecake and it is amazing. It adds so much more than the graham cracker crusts you ate before Keto. 

Next, comes a mixture of rich pumpkin, cinnamon, vanilla ice cream and of course a little “sugar.” Freeze it & eat it 4 hours later. 

And it is so so so good. My daughter (6) actually snagged my piece before I got a bite. Which is saying something because kids are picky. 

So what do you need to make this Keto pumpkin ice cream pie? 

Ingredients for Pecan Pie Crust

• Chopped Pecans
• Butter
• Cinnamon
• Monk Fruit

Low Carb Pumpkin Ice Cream Pie Filling

• A low carb/Keto/THM approved vanilla ice cream 
• Swerve Brown Sugar
• Pumpkin Puree (not pie filling, the only ingredient should be pumpkin)
• Cinnamon 

Allowable Ice Cream Options 

Since this recipe was inspired by the Breyers recipe, let’s start there. The Breyer’s Carb Smart (which is allowed as an S on THM) can be used in this recipe. 

You could also use a compliant vanilla ice cream of your choice like Halo Top or Rebel.

Making the Frozen Pumpkin Pie

This recipe would be no bake except for the fact that you need to bake your homemade low carb pecan crust. But it is easy and only takes a blender & 10 minutes! 

Simply combine the pecan crust ingredients into your blender and blend until everything is combined. The pecans will become so fine that it will look like brown paste. 

Make sure the butter is all blended together. That is when I know it is ready. 

This is what it will look like before baking. 

Spread the pecan mixture into a pie pan and bake at 350 degrees for ten minutes. 

Remove from the oven and let the crust cool completely. You could also do this ahead of time and freeze. 

Blending the Pumpkin Ice Cream

In a medium bowl, combine the vanilla ice cream, brown “sugar,” cinnamon and pumpkin. Mix with a hand or stand mixture until completely combined. 

The ice cream will become smooth. 

Pour this mixture on top of your cool and frozen crust. 

Place the pie in the freezer and freeze for at least 4 hours. 

Serving the Keto Pumpkin Ice Cream Pie

Take the pie out of the freezer about 20 minutes before you are ready to serve. 

Top with homemade whipped cream or Fat Free Reddi Whip (for my THM Drive Thru Sues) and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
