Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sweetener and two cups of heavy cream. Bring the mixture to a boil and reduce the heat to low. Gently simmer for about 40 minutes, stirring occasionally. The mixture should be thick and the volume reduced by half.
Pour the mixture into a large bowl and stir well again. Cool completely. Once cooled, add the vanilla extract.
Whisk in the almond milk and the remaining heavy cream. The mixture should be completely smooth. Let it sit for another 10 minutes.
Transfer the mixture to a large plastic container. Cover with a lid or a piece of plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, but preferably overnight. This step is optional but highly recommended.
Freeze the ice cream for 4-6 hours. Stir the mixture every thirty minutes for the first two hours. After the first hour, add the pumpkin puree and cinnamon. Stir well and put back in the freezer. Stir the mixture again after two hours. This will prevent the ice crystals from forming.
When ready to serve, remove the ice cream from the freezer. Let it sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes. Scoop the ice cream and transfer it to serving glasses.
Serve immediately. Optionally garnish with some ground cinnamon. Optionally drizzle with your favorite Keto hot chocolate sauce or Keto salted caramel sauce.
