Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups (475 g) cottage cheese
  • 1 cup (240 g) pumpkin purée
  • ¾ teaspoon (1.5 g) pumpkin spice (or up to 1 tsp/2 g, to taste)
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) maple syrup or honey (adjust sweetness as desired)

Optional Toppings

  • Whipped cream
  • Pumpkin seeds
  • Hemp hearts
  • Shredded coconut
  • Mini chocolate chips
  • Crushed or candied pecans

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: Add cottage cheese, pumpkin purée, pumpkin spice, and maple syrup to a small food processor.
  2. Blend: Blend the mixture until creamy and smooth, about 1–2 minutes.
  3. Adjust Flavor: Taste and adjust sweetness or spice as desired to suit your preference.
  4. Serve or Chill: Serve immediately with toppings of your choice, or chill in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Stir gently before serving if chilled.

Notes

  • Use a small food processor or personal blender for best results; heavy-duty blenders may make the mixture watery.
  • Adjust sweetness depending on whether you want a light snack or a dessert-like treat.
  • For extra fluffiness, chill the pumpkin purée before blending.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days and stir before serving again. Add a splash of milk or re-blend if needed to restore smoothness.
