Minimal ingredient low-carb pumpkin mousse

This mousse recipe requires ingredients you likely have in your kitchen right now. Once you’ve prepared it, it’s like eating pumpkin pie filling with a much lower carb content.

It takes very little effort to make as you will only need to powder the monk fruit sweetener, mix together the ingredients, chill, and then serve!

Low-carb pumpkin mousse FAQs

Before you begin making this recipe, read over the answers to these commonly asked questions and review the step-by-step instruction photos.

Are there any ingredient substitution options?

  • Classic Monk Fruit Sweetener: You can use Golden Monk Fruit Sweetener, powdered monk fruit sweetener, erythritol, or Swerve at a 1:1 ratio. If you use powdered monk fruit sweetener, you can skip the first instruction step. Liquid stevia or powdered stevia should work here, but because every brand of stevia is quite different, I cannot make suggestions on exactly how much you should use. If you do decide to use stevia, especially if it’s pure stevia (no other ingredients), start with a VERY small amount, taste test, and then add more from there.

What is monk fruit sweetener? Where can it be purchased?

Lakanto’s monk fruit sweetener is net carb-free, doesn’t spike blood sugar, and can be substituted in for sugar at a 1:1 ratio.

I purchase my monk fruit sweetener online from Lakanto’s website and have it delivered. If you want to do this, you can use discount code REALBALANCED at checkout for 20% OFF your Lakanto order.

If you do not want to order online and, instead, purchase monk fruit sweetener in a store, many grocery stores, especially specialty stores and Costco, carry Lakanto monk fruit sweetener products.

How to serve the mousse?

You can serve it “as is” in ramekins or other glassware, or you can even serve it in a bowl to be used as a dip. Our favorite way is to use it as a dip with these Keto Gingerbread Cookies.

How many net carbs per serving?

Each serving contains 5.1 grams of net carbs. 1 serving is equivalent to 1/2 cup of mousse. The recipe yields 8 servings in total.

You can find the full nutrition information for this recipe, including calorie content, total carbs, protein, and fat per serving, in the nutrition label located below the recipe instructions within the recipe card.

What diets is this recipe compliant with?

  • Keto and Low Carb: This recipe contains just 5.1 grams of net carbs per serving.
  • Primal: The ingredients in this mousse recipe follow primal diet guidelines.
  • Nut-Free: This recipe doesn’t contain nut ingredients.
  • Coconut-Free: This mousse is free from coconut.
  • Egg-Free: This is an egg-free recipe.
  • Vegetarian: This recipe is vegetarian-compliant.
  • Refined Sugar-Free: This mousse recipe does not contain refined sugar and is, instead, sweetened with monk fruit sweetener.

    I have the lakanto powdered monkfruit sweetener, (which is a 2:1 sweetener), how much should I use? Thanks!

      If it’s 2:1, you would need half as much sweetener than the recipe calls for (32g).
