Recipe by /contributors/alexis-touchet The subtle taste of pumpkin merges effortlessly with coconut milk in this classic Italian dessert that provides a taste of fall flavors.

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin (more than 1 (1/4 ounce) packet)
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 3/4 cups unsweetened coconut milk (a 13.5 ounce can)
  • 1 cup canned pure pumpkin
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 3/4 cup sweetened flaked coconut
  • 1/2 cup mild honey, heated to liquefy if solid

Instructions

  1. Sprinkle gelatin over water in a very small saucepan and let stand 1 minute to soften. Heat over medium heat, stirring, until gelatin is dissolved, then remove from heat.
  2. Pulse coconut milk, cream, pumpkin, sugar, and a pinch of salt in a blender to combine, then add gelatin mixture and blend until smooth. Strain mixture through a fine sieve into a bowl with a spout or transfer to a 4-quart measuring cup.
