This delicious and easy Keto Pumpkin Mousse dessert is the perfect treat to welcome the season’s change from summer to fall. It uses real unsweetened pumpkin puree along with a sugar-free sweetener to bring you all the flavors of pumpkin cheesecake in just a few minutes. Enjoy it as an easy dessert for one or two people.
Why Make This
- Quick: This amazing keto pumpkin mousse has all the flavors of my popular Pumpkin Pie Cheesecake Bars, but it only takes a fraction of the time to make and is a no-bake option.
- Keto-friendly: It uses a sugar-free sweetener to skip many of the carbs in traditional desserts
- Easy: just like my keto chocolate mousse and keto peanut butter caramel mousse, this dessert requires you to just dump the ingredients in a stand mixer and whip to incorporate.
Ingredients Needed
- Cream Cheese: I’m using full-fat cream cheese
- Keto powdered sweetener: I’m using the powdered version because it is easier to blend
- Pumpkin Puree: get the unsweetened variety. To keep it keto-friendly and low-carb, do not get pumpkin pie mix.
- Pumpkin pie spice
- Heavy Cream
- Vanilla Extract
How to Make This:
To make Keto Pumpkin Mousse, simply:
- Add the cream cheese to a stand mixer. Mix on high until smooth (photo 1)
- Add all of the remaining ingredients and blend until stiff peaks form (photos 2-4)
Top Recipe Tips & FAQs
- Soften the cream cheese: for easy mixing, make sure you soften the cream cheese. You can do this by warming the cream cheese for 10-15 seconds in the microwave
- Mix the cream cheese first: I prefer to mix the cream cheese alone since it typically requires a bit more force. By mixing it and lightening it up a bit, you won’t have to worry about a potential dust cloud when adding the powdered keto sweetener.
- Store in the refrigerator: I keep mine in an air-tight container.
