All the delicious flavors of fall in one dish. Low Carb Keto Pumpkin Cheesecake Mousse.
I have been waiting all year for an excuse to make this low carb keto pumpkin cheesecake mousse. I just love all the fall flavors. In fact, before the first leaf even fell from the trees in our yard, I was already sipping on this Pumpkin Spice Boosted Keto Coffee. I love the time of year. Pumpkins lining the porches of all my neighbors, leaves changing colors, blowing into the wind, and the hint of winter in the air.
This low carb pumpkin cheesecake mousse recipe has all the flavors of a low carb pumpkin pie, but with a deliciously creamy, whipped texture. It is sure to become a fall favorite. I like to top mine with a little fresh low carb whipped cream. To make the low carb whipped cream, I just whipped heavy cream, vanilla extract and natural low carb sweetener together until stiff peaks formed. Then put it into a pastry bag and you are good to go.

This recipe was delicious. I added an additional tsp of pumpkin pie spice to accommodate my 'taste testers' preference. It went together beautifully and this recipe will find its way into my fall 'pumpkin' recipe rotation! Thank you for an easy, delicious, keto pumpkin recipe.
Some of the 'toppers' used for these were buttered toasted pecans, sugar free choco chips and sugar free whipped cream. This mousse is delicious as a stand alone, and can be taken up a notch if toppings are preferred.

The recipe calls for 2 tbsp of pumpkin spice. That seems like quite a lot. I am very familiar with pumpkin spice and everything in me says 2tsp. So I looked at other keto pumpkin mousse recipes and they use 2tsp. I’m kind of leery about using 2tbsp if I it tastes to much.

The recipe is correct, but feel free to use less if you want

I want to make this recipe so bad, but I cannot find unsweetened pumpkin puree anywhere 🙁 Can you tell me what brand you use or where I might be able to find any?
Thank you,

I get it in the grocery store, but this time of year it sells out and can be hard to find. So then I get it on Amazon - https://amzn.to/3v1AEps

Farmer's Market Organic Pumpkin this is what I use. If you live in an area with a Walmart that's where I usually go to find it.
I hope this helps.

Libbys is my go-to brand and is sold in just about every grocery store in America. At least in the fall. Most chain stores that have their own brands will also have it. I just pulled out a can of pureed pumpkin with the 'Great Value' brand from Walmart. I did notice, for the first time, that it is a product of China.
Don't let the words "total sugars" fool you. Those are the carbs naturally present in the pumpkin. My can says: Ingredients: Pumpkin.
I made the mistake once of accidentally purchasing "pumpkin pie filling." Full of sugar and also not-so great a combination of spices.
Since I can't grow a garden I think this year I will stock up on lots of cans of pumpkin. It's so nourishing and delicious!
