Pour into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturerās directions (usually ~20ā30 minutes) until thick and soft-serve-like.

Transfer to a container, cover, and freeze for 2ā3 hours to firm up, or eat straight away if you like it soft and creamy!
š„ Optional: Cooked Custard Version (for extra smooth texture)
-
In a saucepan, gently heat the cream over medium-low.
-
In a bowl, whisk yolks with vanilla, spice, and salt.

Slowly temper the yolk mix with warm cream (ladle in a bit at a time while whisking constantly).

Pour everything back into the pot and cook gently, stirring constantly until thick enough to coat a spoon (about 170ā175°F).
-
Cool mixture completely in the fridge before churning.
š Optional: DIY Carnivore-Approved Savory Pumpkin Spice Blend
If you donāt have the Select Savory one, try this mix (omit or adjust for strict carnivore):
-
1 tbsp cinnamon
-
2 tsp ginger
-
1 tsp nutmeg
-
½ tsp cloves
-
½ tsp allspice
(Mix and store in a jar. Use 1 tsp per batch.)

No sweeteners = pure savory flavor with a creamy custard mouthfeel.
