What Are The Four Basic Components Of A Mousse?
A traditional mousse contains four basic ingredients these are:
- Egg Yolk
- Egg White
- Whipped Cream
- Sugar
You’ll notice below that my recipe varies significantly from a traditional mousse. To keep this a no cook recipe , I omitted the eggs. To keep it low carb, I used Truvia instead of granulated sugar.
How Can You Thicken Mousse Without Gelatin?
To try to keep this peanut butter mousse vegetarian-friendly, I opted to skip the gelatin that many of other mousse recipes call for. You may be wondering how I managed to thicken this without using it.
Well, it’s quite simple, use the ingredients that I commonly use for my daily low carb lifestyle. Both cream cheese and heavy whipping cream are very thick ingredients, so I assumed that they would also thicken this mousse nicely. After giving it a try, I was pleased to find out I was right!
What Is Peanut Butter Mousse Made Of?
- Cream Cheese
- Creamy Peanut Butter
- Truvia
- Half and Half
- Heavy Whipping Cream
- Maple extract
How To Make Peanut Butter Mousse
Believe it or not, it only takes TWO steps to make this tasty keto dessert!
- Place all ingredients into a stand mixer. Using the whisk attachment beat them together until creamy, fluffy, and well aerated.
- Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Peanut Butter Mousse Variations
If you love this low carb mousse but are wondering how you can make it better fit your lifestyle, check out some of these tasty variations below:
- Sub vanilla extract for maple extract
- Add 1-2 tablespoons of cocoa to make a peanut butter chocolate mousse
- Use sunflower seed butter if you’re allergic to peanuts
- Use almond butter or cashew butter instead of peanut butter
- If you’re not doing keto, you can, of course, use real sugar.
Tips And Tricks
There are really only a few things to remember to make this peanut butter maple mousse easily.
- Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature.
- Use peanut butter with minimal sugar and added carbs
- Start your stand mixer really slow so you don’t splatter yourself with cream (yes, of course, I discovered this the hard way!)
- Do not overwhip the mixture as you will have butter from that cream. You want the mix to be fluffy and a light tan as you see in the picture.
Other than that, it’s simplicity itself and a child could make this peanut butter fat bomb with no work at all. I did let mine chill afterward for 30 minutes and I think that really helps it set, and allows the flavors to meld well together.

How Long Does It Last?
If you’re planning to save some for another day, be sure to cover the bowl in the refrigerator otherwise the top dries out a bit. Still good enough to eat, but just not very attractive.
Or you could do what I did, which is to slather and hide the top with whipped cream. More fat! More Deliciousness! What would be wrong with that?

I like to mix up the flavors we have in my dishes, and this Honey Mustard Pork Chops recipe does just that. It takes a classic dish and amps up the flavor profile into something you can enjoy time and time again. It’s also a great base recipe for pork chops in the air fryer that you can customize for yourself.
These Honey Mustard Pork Chops are going to be one of your new favorites! Skip the same old pairing of apples or stuffing with pork chops, and make them bright and fresh with this honey mustard sauce. This recipe will be done in less than 30 minutes from start to finish. Now that’s my kind of recipe.
This recipe is easy, and simple enough to have any night of the week. It’s also nice enough that you could serve it to guests and be happy about it. This is one of those recipes I like to keep in mind for when I need a last-minute dish because it uses ingredients I always have on hand, and it comes together quickly. Let’s get cooking!
What’s The Best Way To Get Pork Chops Tender?
In this honey mustard pork chop recipe, the mustard doesn’t only go to work to flavor the pork, it also works as a tenderizer.
Slathering the mustard on top of the pork chop works in a similar way to marinating the meat. They both gently break down the fibers and cause the pork chops to become more tender.
What Is The Best Way To Cook Pork Chops Without Drying Them Out?
You don’t even need the grill or the stovetop to make these amazing! The Air Fryer will give them a nice, crisp outside while keeping the inside juicy and tender.
No babysitting, and no constant flipping or risk of getting burnt by popping hot oil. You only need to flip them once while they’re cooking, and you’ll have perfectly cooked pork chops!
Ingredients You’ll Need
- Pork chops - I like mine about 1/4 inch thick so they cook through without becoming overdone on the outside.
- Prepared Mustard - This works as the base of your honey mustard sauce.
- Honey - You can’t make honey mustard without the honey
- Minced Garlic
- Kosher Salt
- Ground Black Pepper
- Cooking Oil Spray - This prevents the pork chops from sticking to your air fryer basket and also helps brown the exterior of the pork chops.
How To Make Honey Mustard Pork Chops
- Mix together the mustard, honey, garlic, salt, and pepper.
- Add the pork chops and toss to coat with the sauce.
- Spray the air fryer basket and place the honey mustard pork chops inside.
- Cook the pork in the air fryer until it is cooked through, flipping halfway through the cooking time and spraying with oil again.
Can I Stack The Porkchops When I Cook Them?
You can stack things like fries and tater tots in the air fryer, but you can’t stack meat (or at least uncooked meat). An air fryer cooks the food by circulating hot air around it. Foods like french fries have enough empty space between them that they’re able to cook fully. Things like raw meat, however, can’t get enough hot air circulating around them in order to cook properly.
The last thing you want to do is ingest meat that hasn’t been cooked fully! So if you decide to cook more meat than can fit in your air fryer basket, just cook it in multiple batches to ensure it’s cooked sufficiently.
How Long Do They Last?
For the best results try to enjoy the air fried pork chops within 3-4 days of preparing them. After this, you chance the meat spoiling or losing some of the delicious flavor or texture that it had when it was initially cooked.
What Do You Serve With Honey Mustard Pork Chops?
These honey mustard pork chops are almost as versatile as they are tender and juicy. If you’re looking for great sides to serve with them, you’re in luck!
Here are just a few of my favorites to pair with them:
- Keto Tabouli
- Air Fryer Carrots
- Cheesy Potatoes
