Keto Pumpkin Mousse Ingredients
This no-bake pumpkin recipe is super easy to make with common ingredients that you probably already have in your kitchen. Here’s a note on the key ingredients:
- Cream cheese – Use full-fat cream cheese to make this low carb pumpkin mousse silky and delicious!
- Canned pumpkin – Make sure you’re not pumpkin pie filling because it’s filled with sugars and has plenty of carbs. I also love to roast pumpkin in the oven to make homemade pumpkin puree.
- Heavy cream – This makes the pumpkin fluffy, light, and airy.
- Pumpkin pie spice – I have a recipe for making homemade pumpkin pie spice, but you can use a combination of cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves to replicate the taste.
- Sweetener- The sweetener must be powdered, so it dissolves easily into the cream cheese pumpkin mixture. Alternatively, you can use a few pumpkin spice liquid stevia instead of Erythritol.
- Vanilla extract – This brings out all the best flavors.
- Sugar-Free Whipped Cream – Add a serious dollop of whipped cream just before serving this low carb pumpkin cheesecake mousse.
How to Make Keto Pumpkin Mousse?
This is a one-bowl recipe, so it’s super easy to make and turns out perfect every time if you follow two easy steps:
- Combine the softened cream cheese, low-carb sweetener, and pumpkin puree until well incorporated.
- Add the rest of the ingredients and blend on high for a few minutes or until it looks super fluffy. Divide into 4 to 6 servings and refrigerate for a few hours.
Pro Tip: Avoid overmixing the mousse, or the fats will separate into little grains.
Sprinkle with more pumpkin pie spice, and enjoy every bite of it.
Is This Low Carb Pumpkin Mousse Dairy-free?
This pumpkin mousse is not dairy-free, but it’s possible to make a paleo version. Replace the cream cheese and whipping cream with 14 oz canned coconut milk. Thai Kitchen Organic unsweetened coconut milk is my favorite because it’s super creamy and low carb.
Is Pumpkin Ok For Keto?
Is pumpkin keto? So many people get confused and think that eating pumpkin is forbidden on keto. While it has slightly more carbs than most vegetables, it’s low in carbs. You can read more about keto-approved vegetables.
According to the USDA database, 1 cup of raw pumpkin (116 grams) has about 7.54 grams of carbs and 0.6 grams of fiber.
You can eat pumpkin on keto if you watch the serving size. Most recipes I share with you require a small quantity of pumpkin when divided into more servings. Just enjoy it and make all the pumpkin recipes on this blog.
How To Serve Pumpkin Mousse?
I love serving keto pumpkin mousse in individual small glasses. Top the pumpkin mousse with homemade whipped cream and a dash of cinnamon.
Storing Options
Pumpkin mousse is the perfect treat to make in advance for the holidays. It tastes even better after the flavors develop. I recommend preparing this mouse at least one day in advance and covering the bowl with plastic wrap. Store the mousse in the refrigerator, then when ready to serve, divide between serving glasses and add your desired toppings.
