Protein Sparing Pumpkin Pie Sorbet
Do you love pumpkin pie?
You are going to want to make my protein sparing pumpkin pie sorbet!
It is never too cold for sorbet and this pumpkin pie sorbet is super delicious without the guilt! It is great for your Pure Protein Days (Protein sparing modified fast days).
For my protein sparing pumpkin pie sorbet, do not skip the gelatin. The gelatin helps keep the pumpkin sorbet soft. I only use Further Food gelatin because it is the best quality gelatin without any harmful ingredients!

Note: If you prefer, you can use 1 1/2 cups pumpkin puree. This will create a smoother, less icy pumpkin pie sorbet, but it will increase the carbs.

Nutrition
Awesome recipe I appreciate your creating this. Quick question, is there a workaround to make this carb free by omitting the pumpkin puree? Or would not taste so hot without it?
Thanks! That would have to be a different recipe in that case maybe using an extract or something. 😉
Looks delicious! Can you use Swerve brown in place of Brown Allulose? Thank you!
Yes, that will work.
I tried making this today, but it seems to never have become sorbet/ice cream like. I used the ice cream maker accessory of my Kitchen Aid for over 30 minutes. What could have gone wrong? To be honest, I let it sit for about 6 hours while letting it get to room temperature because I got sidetracked with work. Could that be the problem?
That could have contributed to the issue. The colder the ingredients are the faster it will freeze. 🙂
Recipe says to let get to room temperature though. I used cold ingredients to begin, only let it sit after blender step to let it get to room temperature. Is it supposed to grow in size or get a little creamier in ice cream maker? or just get colder?
Sometimes the smaller chilling ice cream makers like the kitchenaid attachment need things cooler than the dedicated maker to ensure they freeze.
