Pumpkin Ice Cream

Made with microbiome-loving Lifeway Kefir, this Pumpkin Ice Cream is the only dessert we want—or need! With our recipe for Probiotic Pumpkin Ice Cream, each scoop of this autumn treat supports your gut with beneficial bacteria it needs to thrive. Crafted from just three simple ingredients, our creamy Lifeway Kefir adds a rich, smooth texture that complements warm all-spice while Speculoos cookie crumbles (cinnamon sugar-flavored cookies) add a satisfying texture and hint of caramelized sweetness. It’s the ultimate combination of flavor and wellness in every bite.

The Benefits of Cultured Dairy for Better Health:

Research continues to show the importance of eating healthy foods, including cultured dairy such as kefir, for better gut health, a strong immune system, and to support the microbiome. Fermented foods like kefir hold important value in this line of research due to the link between the gut-brain axis and overall health. Specifically, kefir has been shown to help diversify the microbiome, improve digestion, reduce inflammation, support healthier blood sugar levels, and improve satiety since the bioavailable protein it triggers the release of GLP-1.

Lifeway Kefir also contains a variety of nutrients that are vital for healthy bones and overall health: vitamin D3, K, calcium, and vitamin B12. Along with our kefir, we also offer our artisan-made Farmer Cheese, a creamy high-protein cheese made with live and active cultures to support a healthy microbiome that’s easy to spread and contains no added salt for optimal heart-health benefits.
