Silky Smooth Pumpkin Mousse
(serves 4-6)
1-15ounce can organic pumpkin
1-15 ounce package silken or firm tofu
2/3-1 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon ginger
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
pinch of fine salt
Add the tofu and pumpkin to a blender bowl. Blend for less than a minute until well combined. Add the remaining ingredients. Blend until smooth, about 1 minute. Taste and add more sugar (or sweetener of choice) and additional spices to taste. Chill and serve at room temperature. Delicious topped with my coconut whipped cream and a sprinkle of freshly grated nutmeg…
*Soft or silken tofu lends a more custardy texture and firm tofu imparts a denser consistency…
*If your tofu comes in 12-ounce containers, it shouldn’t be necessary to adjust any of the sugar or spices. If you choose to bump up the sweetener or spices, a light hand goes a long way!
