Directions
Honey Pumpkin Mousse,A non-traditional dessert, something different, instead of pumpkin pie.,Based on the other reviewer’s suggestions I bought a carmelized honey especially to make this recipe. A little bit goes a long way so I also used 1/2 c measurement. This recipe was perfect! Great for the time right between summer and fall too because the egg whites give it a whipped coolness yet it has the autumnal flavors usually reserved for fall celebrations. This is very healthy too, since it is only 2 tsp of flour (used a brown rice flour) and no milk, cream or crust as you may find in other desserts. Pumpkin is extremely good for you as far as eye health, fighting cancer, and more (just google for huge long list of benefits) so as desserts go, it’s nice to know something so pleasurable to eat is also so good for you.
Whatever honey you choose will be one of the dominant flavors, so you can experiment with different types from your local farmer’s market to find what you like best.,We made it and it was much too sweet with the honey. I’d use 1/2 C honey. We added whip cream and it was even better.
