This keto pineapple mousse pairs wonderfully with a side of fresh berries, giving it an extra burst of freshness and color. You might also consider serving it with a handful of mixed nuts for some added crunch. If it's a special occasion, a glass of chilled sparkling water with a slice of lime can make the experience feel even more festive. This mousse can also be layered with low-carb granola or coconut flakes for a bit of texture contrast, catering to different tastes at the table.

Servings: 4

1 cup heavy whipping cream
1/4 cup powdered erythritol or other keto-friendly sweetener
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon pineapple extract
1/2 cup unsweetened coconut milk
1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin
2 tablespoons cold water

1. In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over the cold water. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to bloom.

2. In a medium saucepan, warm the coconut milk over low heat. Add the bloomed gelatin and stir until it's completely dissolved.

3. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly before adding the pineapple extract. Set aside.

4. In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream with a hand mixer until it forms soft peaks.

5. Add the powdered erythritol and vanilla extract to the cream, and continue whipping until you achieve stiff peaks.

6. Fold the coconut milk mixture into the whipped cream gently, ensuring everything is well combined.

7. Spoon or pipe the mousse into serving dishes and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set.

8. Serve chilled, garnished with a small mint leaf or a few shredded coconut flakes if desired.

For a more tropical taste, you can add a bit of lime zest to the mousse mixture before refrigerating it. If you have picky eaters, offering a selection of toppings like chopped nuts, fresh berries, or even a sprinkle of cinnamon can make the treat more customized and fun for everyone. To make it more decadent, you can layer the mousse with a low-carb chocolate pudding—perfect for those who enjoy a richer dessert. This recipe can also be made dairy-free by using coconut cream instead of heavy whipping cream, making it versatile for those with dietary restrictions.
