If you live in a warm area, this frozen pumpkin sherbet treat will give you a little taste of fall. I also love making guiltless Banana Ice Cream using just frozen bananas and also Mexican “Unfried” ice cream!

It may be October, but we’ve been having some hot weather the past few days here in New York. I’m not quite ready to put my ice cream maker away just yet. By the way, the ice cream maker I use is a Cuisinart Ice cream Maker and it’s super easy to use. I recently tried the pumpkin ice cream from Trader Joe’s and it was so delightful and wanted to see if I could recreate it, without all the fat of course.

Now, if you don’t own an ice cream maker, you can still make this frozen treat in a food processor. Simply freeze the pumpkin mixture in an ice cube tray. Once frozen you then throw the cubes in the processor until smooth and creamy.  It’s truly the ultimate Autumn guilt-free snack, breakfast or dessert!
