Prep Time 20 minutes mins
Cook Time 10 minutes mins
Total Time 30 minutes mins
Course Healthy Recipes
Cuisine Dessert
Servings 3 -4 Cups

Ingredients
  

  • 2 Cups Cream preferably fresh
  • 2 tbsp. Pumpkin puree
  • 1 tbsp. Pure maple syrup*
  • 1 tsp Cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp Cream of Tartar optional

Instructions
 

  • Place bowl and mixer whisk attachment into the freezer for 20 minutes.
  • Place cream into a mixing bowl and attach the collar to your bowl, if you have one, to protect from splashes. Whip with whisk attachment on the highest setting.
  • Check the cream as it whips. The cream will begin to thicken after several minutes. Do NOT leave it unattended. Whipped cream can turn to butter very quickly, so keep an eye on it. This process can take from two to 10 minutes.
  • As soon as the cream starts to set up, stop to add the pumpkin, maple syrup and cinnamon.
  • Turn the mixer back on to high and finish whipping until stiff peaks form.
  • Serve immediately.

Notes

* You may replace maple syrup with raw honey or keto maple syrup (like Wholesome Yum's brand) to make this recipe keto compliant. You may also replace the maple syrup with powdered monk fruit sugar or any powdered keto approved sugar.
If you want to make the pumpkin whipped cream last a bit longer in the fridge, add the cream of Tartar.
A two-cup batch of cream turns into about a 3-4 cup finished product.
My family of seven can easily wipe out that much in one sitting, so I don't usually have any leftovers.

 Random Whipped Cream Tips

 To ensure success, pre-chill your whipping equipment (bowl, beaters or whisk attachment) in the freezer. Ten to twenty minutes is usually sufficient.

Homemade whipped cream can start to go flat after a few hours. As I said in the recipe, if you want to make the pumpkin whipped cream last a bit longer in the fridge, add the cream of Tartar.

A two cup batch of cream turns into about a 3-4 cup finished product. My family of seven can easily wipe out that much in one sitting, so I don’t usually have any leftovers.

If you prefer not to use cream of Tartar, you can try this recipe from Erenn’s Kitchen that uses milk powder.

Things to Do with Cream 

There are several different types of cream and the difference is really just how much butterfat the cream has. There are a lot of different things you can do with cream; it’s not only for whipping!

  • Light cream, which has less butterfat content, is great to pour over berries, cereal, in your morning hot beverage or to mix with milk to make half and half.
  • If your cream is technically whipping cream, with a higher butterfat content, besides whipping it, you can add it to soups, batters or mashed potatoes.
  • If you have the additional ingredients, make ganache or bread pudding with your cream because both are divine.

Buying or Milking Whipping Cream?

If you buy whipping cream at the store, my advice is to try to find the highest quality cream you can that is NOT ultra-pasteurized. You can read a bit more about why ultra-pasteurization is not desirable in this article from Food Renegade.

The bottom line is that the process is more intense than the regular pasteurization process. The difference is very much in the taste; it’s a dead food that tastes like chalk.

If you can buy cream directly from a local dairy, please do! If not, your local health food store will most likely have a option that will be to your liking.

Of course, milking your own dairy animal has it’s perks.

If you’d like to get started milking:

  • Cows – here’s an article from Homestead Honey – Homestead Dairy Cow Basics
  • Goats – here’s an article from Rootsy Network – Should You Raise Goats on the Homestead
  • If you’re debating between goats and cows, read this article from us on which one might be best for you.

Advice for Dealing with Fresh Cream

Older cream seems to work better than new cream if you’re using raw cream.

When skimming cream off milk (as in a home dairy situation), be extremely careful not to get milk mixed into your cream. You can use a cream separator to be sure of the purity of your cream.

Or you can skim off cream from the top of your milk container and wait twelve hours to see if you get any milk falling to the bottom of your container. 

If you have your own dairy animals, be sure to take note if you have whipped cream success or failures at consistent times of the year. What a dairy animal eats can greatly affect the resulting products.

Unpasteurized cream (which you might use if you have a home dairy) can be a bit more difficult to whip than pasteurized cream, but don’t be discouraged. Because raw products are still teaming with beneficial life, they can have minds of their own sometimes.

      Thank you for alerting me to the recipe being gone, Joyce! There was a funky piece of computer code that was preventing it from being visible. I fixed the code, so let me know if you still can’t see it.

      A good dairy goat is so reliable. I had one that milked straight for 2 1/2 years with the same production levels. She was golden!

    Yeah, here in Oregon, there is NO SUCH THING as not ultra pasteurized heavy cream. It is ALL ultra pasteurized.

    We also can’t get raw milk here, either. (except goat milk, which I personally don’t care for) Of course I’d much rather use raw, or not ultra pasteurized, but I have no choice.

    Only if you want to pay ridiculous amounts to ‘buy a part of a cow’ can you get raw, and then, there are only about 3 places in the entire state to do so, you have to drive to get it, and as mentioned, it is EXPENSIVE!!! (I don’t remember exactly how much, but when I looked it seems it was about $20 quart either milk or pint of cream, weekly).

    So, IF you CAN get raw or find not ultra pasteurized, be very thankful!

      The food freedom struggle is real and Oregon is certainly a challenging state to live in if you’d like to be able to purchase raw milk!
