    • 💬 Comments

    It's nearly time for pumpkin-seeded bread, pumpkin cupcakes, pumpkin butter and pumpkin sweet cream cold foam to take over the fall menu. But these late summer months are still quite hot, and embracing fall flavors with a scoop of pumpkin ice cream is my ideal!

    This Spiced Pumpkin Pie ice cream combined with espresso for the perfect affogato experience. The ice cream is made with Torani’s Puremade Pumpkin Pie Sauce. Torani Puremade Sauces deliver amazing flavors with the ingredients you love.

    There are no artificial flavors, no artificial colors, and no artificial preservatives – just pure delicious flavor!  Head on over to Torani’s website to take a look at their many Puremade Sauce flavors and create a fall affogato for yourself!

    ⭐ Why You’ll Love This Recipe 

    • True Pumpkin Essence: With a fusion of pumpkin pie spice and authentic pumpkin flavor, this pumpkin spice affogato is a celebration of fall in a glass.
    • Every Scoop is a Treat: Our pumpkin affogato doesn't just require any scoop of ice cream – we recommend churn pumpkin spice ice cream for that extra punch of pumpkin spice flavor.
    • Move Over, PSL: If you're a fan of the pumpkin spice latte, this affogato will give you a unique twist, blending the love for coffee and pumpkin in a delightful manner.
    • Celebrate in Style: With National Coffee Day around the corner, what better way to honor it than with this Italian-inspired treat that encapsulates both the passion for coffee and the festive pumpkin flavor?
    • No Need for Whipped Cream: Though many desserts demand stiff peaks of whipped cream on top, the combination of a warm shot of espresso with a cold scoop ice cream in our pumpkin affogato is perfection on its own.

    ❓ What is an affogato?

    The word “affogato” literally translates as “drowned” in English! A perfect translation as an affogato as seen above depicts a few scoops of ice cream "drowned" in espresso.

    ❓ How do you make an affogato?

    The basics of making an affogato rely on two essential ingredients - Ice Cream and Espresso! It takes little to no time to create the affogato of your dreams. After adding a few scoops of ice cream into a bowl or dessert glass, you'll want to pour the hot espresso on top. Then there you have it, your own homemade affogato!

    📖 Step by Step Instructions

    • Place pumpkin and brown sugar in a medium bowl and whisk until the brown sugar has completely dissolved.
    • Add spices, salt, vanilla extract, Torani Puremade pumpkin pie sauce and maple syrup to the bowl with pumpkin mixture and whisk until completely smooth.
    • Stream in whipping cream and milk while whisking until incorporated
    • Fill your cylinder of ice cream maker no more than two-thirds full and freeze according to manufacturer's directions.
    • Pour Spiced Pumpkin ice cream base into an airtight container and freeze overnight
    • Scoop the spiced pumpkin ice cream into a serving bowl, glass, or coffee cup.
    • Pour the chilled or hot espresso over the scoops of ice cream and serve immediately!

    ❓ How to make pumpkin puree

    Making pumpkin puree is actually much easier than one would think! After purchasing your pumpkin from the market or your local grocery store, cut it in half and place cut side down onto your prepared baking sheet.

    Roast the pumpkin at 400F until you can easily pierce the flesh with a fork - this should take about 60 minutes. Once cool, blend the pumpkin in a blender or food processor until smooth!

    ❄️ Can I freeze pumpkin puree?

    You can certainly buy or make your pumpkin puree and store it in the freezer! There are some moments where I purchase a rather large can of pumpkin puree and prefer not to use the entire amount in one baking session.

    Instead, I will place the leftover puree into an airtight ziplock bag and place it in the freezer. Your puree will keep for a week in the refrigerator and three months in the freezer!
