No-churn ice cream is by far the easiest way to make ice cream. All you have to do to make this easy no machine ice cream is take two basic ingredients, add in the flavors and mix-ins you love, whip, and freeze.
We love making homemade gluten free cookies in the Fearless Dining kitchen...but sometimes we don't have time to make something from scratch. This is where ready to bake cookies come in.
You may remember these delicious Gluten Free Almond Joy Cookie Bars I made with their Gluten Free Double Chocolate Cookie Mix.
Today I am gushing about their EASY refrigerated chocolate cookie dough. You can buy their gluten free cookie packs in double chocolate, peanut butter, or chocolate chip.
Now picture these chocolaty gluten free cookies with pumpkin spice...now you can see where I got my inspiration from for this easy pumpkin ice cream!!

DIY Gluten Free Ice Cream Cones and Bowls
There are companies that make a gluten-free ice cream cone if you prefer a cone. You can also make your own homemade DIY Gluten-Free Waffle Cones as my son demonstrated. You can also serve this delicious ice cream in a homemade gluten free cookie bowl with these simple directions!!
Can you buy gluten free ice cream cones?
You can easily buy gluten free cones. My favorites are by a company called Goldbaums and I usually can find it in my local grocery stores. Let's Do Ice Cream Cones is another good breand.
Tips and Substitutions:
- If you don't want too much chocolate in your ice cream (is that even possible?) Try one of Immaculate Baking's other deliciously moist gluten free cookies. I bet their chocolate chip or peanut butter cookies would also taste delicious in this no-churn ice cream recipe.
- I used a Vitamix to blend this ice cream up in just seconds. If you don't have a Vitamix, feel free to use a different blender, or even a hand mixer to whip it up.
- I like a strong pumpkin spice flavor. Feel free to vary the quantities of spice to make it perfect for you.
- I used organic condensed milk for this recipe. There is also a coconut condensed milk that will also work beautifully in this pumpkin ice cream recipe.
See all of those big chunks of gluten free chocolate cookie in this pumpkin spice ice cream? Those big cookie chunks are what makes this ice cream over the top!!
Instructions:
Add the pumpkin puree, heavy whipping cream, condensed milk, and pumpkin pie spices to a Vitamix or blender. You can add these ingredients in any order, just dump them in!
Whip the ingredients until they are thick and fluffy like what you can see through the top of the Vitamix here.
Pour the whipped cream into a bread loaf or other freezer-safe container. (Sorry the photo is slightly blurry, I took a snapshot from the video below.)
How long do you freeze homemade ice cream?
I freeze my homemade no-churn ice creams for at least 4 hours so that they are solid enough to use an ice cream scoop.
Can I use a blender to make no-churn ice cream?
You can use a Vitamix or another blender to make no-churn ice cream. If you do not own a blender, you can make it in a food processor!

I made this the other day and I'm wondering if I mixed it a little too long. I read on another no churn recipe ( I think) that if you mix it too long you make something more like butter. My ice cream is really hard, doesn't spoon out like ice cream from the store. It also has a kind of fatty richness to it that I'm not use to. Is that normal, or did I over mix, do you think? Thanks!

Hi Chris,
How long did you mix your for? I do soften the ice cream a bit before scooping...it sounds like you may have mixed it too long. I blend until it just gets creamy like whipped cream. I hope this helps.
