The BEST Pumpkin Fluff Recipe
I’ve made lots of fluff recipes in my time, from traditional Watergate salad to fun twists like Oreo Fluff. I love how EASY it is to make fluff! It just takes a few ingredients and a few minutes to make an easy dessert recipe kids and adults love.
I don’t know about you, but we love eating pumpkin recipes all year long. However, in the fall, pumpkin takes on a special meaning: cooler weather, boots, scarves and the holidays. Pumpkin and pumpkin spice are on a heavy rotation in my kitchen September through December each year and Pumpkin Fluff is one of those things we make a lot because it’s easy, tasty and we can do so many things with it.
Jordan likes dipping fruit or graham crackers in pumpkin dip and I love eating it with a spoon. I’ve also put it into a no-bake pie shell to make a pumpkin fluff pie, which is fantastic for a last minute get-together. And when I’m following WW, I love substituting sugar-free ingredients to make Weight Watcher friendly fluff.
5 Ingredient Pumpkin Pie Dip
Pudding Mix: Use instant vanilla or cheesecake pudding mix.
Milk: You’ll need milk to thin it – you can use regular or nonfat.
Cool Whip: Use any variation/brand you like. You can also substitute whipped cream but it won’t last as long.
Pumpkin Puree: Be sure not to buy pumpkin pie mix.
Pumpkin Pie Spice: This gives it that telltale pumpkin pie flavor. Buy it or make DIY Pumpkin Pie Spice.
Weight Watchers Fluff (Sugar Free Pumpkin Dip)
It’s really easy to adapt this recipe to be diet and WW friendly. All you have to do is substitute sugar-free pudding mix and sugar-free whipped topping. It’s SO easy!!
According to a Smart Points calculator I found online, each serving is 2 WW SP with the sugar-free substitutions.
How to make Pumpkin Fluff Dip
Step 1. Add pudding mix and pumpkin puree to a large bowl.
Step 2: Add the milk then stir it all together.
Step 3: Add the pumpkin pie spice.
Step 4: Stir in the whipped topping.
What to serve with Pumpkin Fluff
When you have fluff like this recipe, there are so many uses:
- Serve it as a mousse or pudding
- Use it as a dip for apples or crackers
- Add it to a no-bake pie crust
Variations/Tips
- Add marshmallows to make it a traditional fluff salad.
- Add nuts for some crunch!
- Serve this on a fall charcuterie board!
- Substitute 3 cups freshly whipped cream for the whipped topping if you prefer.
- Store in the refrigerator for up to 4 days (if made with whipped topping).
- If it uses Cool Whip you can freeze it (you can’t freeze if you substitute freshly whipped cream).
