Frequently Asked Questions
How Long Does Pumpkin Dip Last In The Fridge?
Because it contains dairy ingredients, you’ll want to make sure that you keep your dip refrigerated until ready to serve. Do not leave out more than 2 hours at room temperature.
When kept in an airtight container in the refrigerator, this dip will stay good up to 5-6 days.
Can You Make This Recipe Sugar Free?
Yes, you can substitute sugar-free versions of some of the ingredients, such as sugar free pudding mix and sugar free whipped topping. Keep in mind that pumpkin puree contains natural sugars, so this won’t be a zero sugar recipe. However, these simple swaps will bring the total carb count down to less than 10g total carbohydrates per serving.
Can You Use Pumpkin Pie Filling Instead Of Canned Pumpkin?
Canned pumpkin or pumpkin puree is exactly what it sounds like: pumpkin that has been pureed into a smooth consistency.
On the other hand, pumpkin pie filling is pumpkin puree that has added sugars and seasonings, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves. Since we are adding our own seasonings, I would recommend sticking with pure pumpkin for the recipe. This also keeps it from being too sweet since the whipped topping and pudding mix already adds some sweetness.
Note: pumpkin pie filling may also be labeled as “pumpkin pie mix.”
