Maple whipped cream is an amazing sugar-free alternative to buying store-bought canned whipped cream with all preservatives and artificial flavors! Homemade sugar free whipped cream is amazingly simple to whip up in about 10 minutes or less plus it tastes so much better!
Ingredients for Maple Whipped Cream
Maple whipped cream only has 3 ingredients so it’s super simple and I usually have all of the ingredients on hand, especially if I’ve been baking lately!
Heavy Cream – Heavy cream is rich and creates amazing fluffy, light delicious whipped cream.
Maple Syrup – Do NOT use artificial maple syrup. Get the real stuff here! You’ll be surprised how much better everything tastes with real maple syrup! This provides sweetness in our whipped cream without using sugar!
Vanilla Extract – Please use real vanilla extract and not imitation. The taste is far superior. Vanilla adds not only flavor but an extra bit of sweetness.

Making Sugar Free Whipped Cream
Making homemade whipped cream is actually super simple!
For best results, use a metal mixing bowl and chill in the fridge or freezer for a bit before you start. This helps keep the cream cold and makes it fluffier!
I prefer to use a standing mixer to make my whipped cream but you can certainly beat the cream by hand or use a hand mixer. You can also use a whipped cream dispenser as well!
Pour the heavy cream into the chilled mixing bowl and beat on medium speed until doubled in size. Add the maple syrup and vanilla extract and continue beating on medium-high speed until soft peaks form.
Use immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge until ready to use. It is best to use this within a few hours of making it as it will lose its fluffiness quickly.
I love making homemade maple whipped cream to top my sugar-free apple crisp, Pumpkin Spice Irish Coffee, Rustic Pear Galette, or sugar-free creamy pumpkin mousse!
