Add a can of organic full-fat coconut milk to the back of your refrigerator for at least 12-24 hours before making this recipe.
Prepare the mousse:
Once the coconut milk has been refrigerated at least 12-24 hours, scoop out the hardened "fat" part of the coconut milk from the top half of the can. The bottom half will be "liquid" and you can save this part to add to a smoothie.
Add the hardened coconut fat, granular sweetener and pumpkin spice to a stand mixer and mix on high speed until it turns into a fluffy mousse and thick enough to "peak".
Taste and adjust the sweetener and/or pumpkin spice to your preference.
Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator in an air-tight BPA-free container until ready to serve because it will get soft if left out at room temperature.
Notes
Coconut Milk: You will need to buy "canned" coconut milk and not boxed. Make sure to use "full-fat" coconut milk and not "reduced-fat" coconut milk.Granular Sweetener: You can use your favorite granular sweetener for this recipe. Here are some different options:
Medical Medium®: Use organic coconut sugar. The color of the mousse might be darker but it will still have enough sweetness.
Lectin-Free: Use a non-GMO xylitol or xylitol + stevia blend
Keto/Low Carb: Use a sugar-free sweetener such as non-GMO xylitol or xylitol blend.
Pumpkin Spice: Use your favorite pumpkin spice blend but my favorite is this high-quality organic blend.Serving Sizes: This recipe will make approximately 1 1/2 cups. Nutritional calculations are based on 1/2 cup per serving for a total of 5 servings.
