Looking to add some fall flavor to your everyday bagel? This creamy Whipped Pumpkin Spice Cream Cheese is the perfect festive addition! Keep reading to learn how to whip it up in just a minute or two!
I thought I could hold off, you guys. I really did. But there’s this weird thing that happens whenever I make something tasty that I think you all would enjoy where I end up completely dismantling my editorial calendar and squeezing it in. Because you guys need it in your lives.
That’s how it went with this post. I made this on a whim after I had some leftover cream cheese from making this post. No idea what to do with it and a few cans of pumpkin puree, I thought that it would be an okay combination. I was wrong.
This stuff is like pumpkin cheesecake heaven, but without the work. Whipped pumpkin spice cream cheese is delicious on just about everything – from pancakes to a spoon. Enjoy it with a coffee filled with my Sugar Free Pumpkin Spice Coffee Creamer! I would be lying if I told you that I haven’t snuck into the fridge armed with a spoon an embarrassing amount of times. If you love the unofficial flavor of fall, you’re going to be obsessed with this.
Oh, and if you use stevia or another sugar-free sweetener, this cream cheese is the perfect guilt-free treat that you can feel good about sharing with your family – I’ve been smearing it on apples for Ryan and he loves it. I’m a fan because it’s got an extra dose of vitamins from the pumpkin puree.
Whipped Pumpkin Spice Cream Cheese
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/3 cup pumpkin puree
1 tsp pumpkin spice
Sweetener to taste
Whisk together all ingredients until smooth – a stand mixer works best. For sweetener, I used vanilla stevia but feel free to use whatever you like – maple syrup, honey, Splenda, sugar.. If using sugar, I would suggest using powdered sugar, though!
So tell me – your favorite thing to put cream cheese on? Do you like flavored cream cheeses? Do you hate me for posting about fall already? Let me know in the comments!

I even have canned pumpkin already! It definitely feels like it’s made the switch to fall temperatures around here; it’s so exciting!

Yum! I eat pumpkin baked oatmeal year round so im not judging! 🙂 I can totally make this with vegan cream cheese–this sounds delicious. I love the idea of adding sweetness to make it a dip for apples! I bet it’d be good on toast with some jam!
