The easiest way to make sugar-free, allergy-free, vegan marshmallow fluff with an unexpected ingredient! This multi-purpose condiment & sweet topping recipe will become a staple and have you buying cans of beans just for aquafaba!
Breathe deeply! Your fluffy sweet marshmallow dreams are about to come true! Just when you (at least I did) thought all hope was lost due to all vegan, gluten-free marshmallows having SOY and normal marshmallows having gelatin, there would never be marshmallow anything again.
MY LATEST VIDEOSJust like I think everyone should be able to enjoy bagels, mac & cheese, etc., everyone should be able to enjoy fluffy marshmallow love! EVEN if you aren’t into added sugars! This fluff may be the definition of a pillow, floaty, airy, and nothing but love, sweet love! (I’m so excited!) This fluff can be used for so many things! From rice krispies, pancake topping, any sweet topping, cupcakes, s’mores, and more!
I’m giving The Majestic Beauty even more love this week. This wasn’t even the post I was going to publish today. I was going to post one of my favorite recipe with the vegan marshmallow fluff, but that was stupid of me! I needed to give you the recipe for the fluff first! (Next week I’ll be posting the killer recipe I was planning on posting…don’t you worry!).
If you’ve been reading this blog for more than a week, you know that actual marshmallows have been on my recipe bucket list for the longest time. While this recipe for marshmallow fluff isn’t actual “cubed” marshmallows, it may just be better! It has also made me fall even deeper in love with THE KING BEAN! Yes! We are going to be using the famous aquafaba today! If you haven’t tried this vegan trend yet, you really need to (with this recipe!)
Sugar-Free Vegan Marshmallow Fluff
- ½ Cup Aquafaba*
- ½ Tsp Xanthan Gum
- ¼ Tsp Agar Powder
- ¼ Tsp Cream of Tartar
- 1 Tsp Pure Bourbon Madagascar Vanilla Extract
- ½ Cup Powdered Erythritol
- In a stand mixer, combine the aquafaba, xanthan gum, agar, and cream of tartar. Beat at an increasingly high speed for 2 minutes until it starts to look like whipped egg whites.
- Turn the mixer off, add the vanilla and powdered erythritol.
- Turn the mixer back on and beat at an increasingly high speed for about 5 minutes until you have a white, glossy, fluffy, "stiff peak" fluff!
**You can store extra marshmallow fluff in a closed jar in the fridge for about 3-5 days
Another fun tid-bit about this vegan marshmallow fluff is that you can totally customize it! Add in a flavored extract, food coloring, cocoa powder, anything you want! Have fun with this base recipe; marshmallows are ALWAYS about fun! I’ve never seen someone frown when marshmallow goodness is present! Now you’re going to have to wait another week for that recipe I wanted to post today! Ah! (I’m probably dieing more than you, but I know you’ll love it!) Until then, marshmallow (fluff) on!
So tell me:
+ Have you jumped on the aquafaba train yet?
+ What will YOU use this marshmallow fluff for?

Amazing! So easy. I have a hand mixer so I was worried. Turned out perfect!
Wow, well that’s great to know!
I’m always introduced to a new ingredient when I visit. Thanks for sharing your healthy version of a favorite treat.
My mission 😉 Thank you!
So fluffy!! I have never heard of or tried aquafaba, but my interest is very peaked. This just made me think of fluffer-nutters though.
Go whip some up!! It is a rather fun kitchen experiment (that works!)
I’ve only every made this veggie style, so I am super excited to try a vegan one even though I know it’s dangerous stuff that’s so good you can eat it with a spoon!
Veggie style?
I haven’t made anything with aquafaba yet but this looks amazingly fluffy!
It’s time to try it out!
Ah! Marshmallow fluff! I thought I had to say goodbye to it forever when I went vegan, but now I can make my own.
You totally should win an award for most creative use of aquafaba!
Pinning & sharing =)
Haha, it’s been done before, but thanks!
Yum! I can think of so many ways to enjoy this sugar-free, allergy-free, vegan marshmallow fluff recipe!
The possibilities never end!
I don’t have agar powder, but have all of the other ingredients. Do you have any suggestions for a substitution for that ingredient? I really want to try this out!
I actually think you could get away without the agar. You might want to try adding 1/4 tsp more of the gum, but that may not even be necessary!
I have to try this because bean juice is just making my brain go crazy! Pinned!
Haha, I hope you do! It is pretty amazing!
Awesome Fluff glad to have this recipe!
I hope you make some!
Um yes, this looks amazing! I remember eating marshmallow fluff straight from the jar when I was little.
Haha, a fluff lover!
Who would have thought! My husband would love this so thanks for sharing. Blessings
Right? I hope you both get to enjoy some fluff!
Chickpeas really are the super Bean! They need to bust out their cape and show how super they are. This is the perfect recipe for us, gluten free and vegan. My vegetarian daughter has been missing her marshmallow, and this will make her extremely happy.
She’ll love these!
Ahhh, the magic of aquafaba. It actually took me a while to give aquafaba another try after my failed, first attempt of making meringues. So now I’m using it in no-bake things like ice cream and that actually works well for me. Good to see that this marshmallow fluff is using *raw* aquafaba 🙂
Hahahaha! It took me a while too, to use it in things other than breads and muffins…this fluff stuff is amazing though!
Thank you for sharing!
Thanks!
My youngest is on a low sugar diet and often feels left out because he can’t have a lot of the typical desserts. I’m excited to give this a try!
I hope he loves this one! It will be such a fun treat!
Oh the wonder of Aquafaba! I actually haven’t played with it in a while and this has inspired me to get back on the train! I had disasters with the actual meringues when it first all began because my oven temperature didn’t adjust! Now I have a new oven so must try again! I love to make mousse with it, there’s a recipe on my site that I also must make again!
Thank you for the inspiration <3
Do try again! I need to play around with making some meringues next!
I have been DYING to try making meringues or fluff with aquafaba! Love this! I so can’t wait to give it a try..
Do it!!! It was so much fun!
This looks out of this world! Omg! I’ve yet to try this and I really need to, it’s gorgeous!
Ah! You must! I know you’ll have tons of fun with this 😉
Hi Rebecca,
Hi This marshmallow fluff sounds so tasty and tantalizing. I printed the recipe and am going to try it soon. I never knew you could make something like this from bean juice. Pinned & tweeted!
Let me know how it comes out!
I see LOTS of fluffernutter sandwiches in my future!!
Haha, mine too 😉
This is brilliant, Rebecca!
Thnk you!
What an interesting recipe this is. So useful to put on many many things. I have never used aquafaba so this will be a new adventure to try, it looks incredible.
It will be a fun adventure!
I am in love with all things AquaFaba and this marshmallow cream takes the cake- looks amazing too!
And it would go very well on a cake 😉 Haha!
This is really neat! I wonder how well it would hold up in fudge?
We’ll have to play around with that!
OH MY GOD. This is just pure heaven. I was never too much into marshmallows, but I can definitely see myself never getting enough of this. Need to make some avocado chocolate mousse and spoon this on top! X
That would be fantastic!!! I used to love chocolate pudding with whipped cream growing up!
Looks so light and fluffy! I once tried making aquafaba macarons but failed miserably and it completely put me off from trying it again! I really want to try this recipe now though!
I was really worried it wouldn’t work…but when it did…and this well….I was SO happy!
I know for sure this is SO much healthier than the bought stuff. I can imagine that it also tastes better too.
Haha, yes and yes!
This is fascinating and I can’t wait to try it! Not being vegan myself, I had never heard of aquafaba. Now I can’t wait to give this a try for the vegetarians in my family!
I hope you give it a go! It’s fun and…delicious! Haha!
This is crazy! I’ve never heard of using bean liquid for anything before let alone dessert…I can’t wait to try this!
It really is the next best thing! Try it out!
Yes yes yes! I’m so onboard the aquafaba train, and xanthan gum is the trick! Love it!
It is!! I’m so glad I finally tried it! I was skeptical!
I didn’t know you could make this sugar free and a vegan version too. How scrummy!
Haha, yes!
I look at this and think s’mores. Thank you so much for the aquafaba info. I had no idea you could get it from making beans yourself! I realize now that is it obvious but sometimes we miss the obvious. Oh and also had no idea you could freeze it. Love it!
I always freeze the aquafaba! This exact batch of fluff was from frozen (so I know it works!)
This is something that I desperately need to make! I’ve been vegetarian for a while and buying the gelatin-free marshmallows is expensive. Also, I recently became sugar free (for a month) and have been wondering how I could possibly ever eat s’mores again. Hope at last! Pinned this to try later!
I know! I need marshmallows in my life after so many years, but they needed to be free of everything…and sugar! This was the way!
Marshmallows are one of my favorite foods ever and I hate that I can’t eat them anymore unless I want to pay an insane amount of money for vegan marshmallows. So excited about this recipe–thanks for sharing!
I missed them so much! Normal marshmallows have gelatin, then vegan ones have soy…but this? ALL-FREE! (and dirt cheap!)
WOOOW!! Look how fluffy it is, amazing Rebecca! And all vegan, its really difficult to believe, haha 😀
It’s simply a wonderful fluffy miracle!
This is the first time I have heard about Aquafaba. It makes sense that it would make good deserts and things that needs a thickening agent. I can’t wait to try this recipe!!! I pinned and shared it.
Fantastic! Glad I could introduce something new!
This is so cool! I’m not a big marshmallow fan (I know weird, right?) but my kids love them, and I hate giving them those sugar laden bombs you can find in the grocery store!
Well these are the healthiest possible substitute ever!
This is so cool!!! I have been looking for a good recipe for marshmallows. I can’t wait to try it!!! I pinned and shared it.
Perfect timing, you will love this!
This is amazing! At this point I’m not convinced you aren’t a wizard, haha. I can imagine this going on so many things! Brilliant.
Hahaha, well thank the power of chickpeas and all their many crazy uses….even marshmallow!
Not to rain on the sugar-free parade here, but could this be made with regular sugar instead of erythritol? I have a toddler who has an allergy to corn products. I googled erythritol to check, and it isn’t looking promising. 🙁
Yes it could, or you could just sweeten to taste with stevia as well.
I’ve been trying to make vegan fluff for a few weeks now. I can get it to fluff up, but then it practically evaporates when I stick it in the fridge. Of course I never thought to cover it! Haha! Sigh… Off to try it again!
It’s better used right away, haha, but with the other gems and agar, it stabilizes it a bit!
Great idea! Good, healthy eating!
It’s perfect for so many healthy recipes!
Love this!! I recently saw a meringue recipe with aquafaba! Very interesting.
Yes! I need to try that too!
I LOVE that you used aquafaba in a recipe… so fun!! Trying this next time I use chickpeas!
I needed marshmallow in my life again!
we all could use some marshmallow fluff in our life
I agree!
I’ve actually never tried the original marshmallow fluff, it somehow always freaked me out, but this here has just changed my mind and I wanna eat the whole jar! 🙂
You only missed out on chemicals and scary things…hahaha! This is the way to go!
I can eat many fruits with dipping on to this!! Looks so creamy and delicious!!
It would be a wonderful healthy fruit dip!
Oh I love this!! It looks so fluffy and perfect – pass me a spoon and some toast please!!
Haha, you’ll be putting it on everything!
Peanut butter, vegan and gluten free marshmallow fluff sandwich (on GF , of course)…YUM! Thanks for sharing this recipe!
And I made just that yesterday 😉
So fluffy! Aquafaba is a miracle. 🙂
It IS a miracle! The most random food discovery!
I’ve never made marshmallow fluff before! Intriguing!
Do you have a stand mixer, Niel?? (Please say yes!) Then make this!
I do love fluff and it is always nice to learn how to make this at home thanks for sharing =)
And much healthier 😉
I love, love, LOVE aquafaba–but I have yet to try it for marshmallow fluff. Looks like it turns out perfectly!
You’ve got to make some fluff, Megan!
What a useful recipe for celiacs! I use marshmallow fluff on so many desserts!
Ha, it was mostly the soy and vegan part I was going after 😛
Love, love, love this! First, it’s beautiful, second delicious, and third, I’ve been dying to try something with aquafaba! Great recipe!
Pretty fluff is in your future!
Yum, this looks so good! I feel like you can give me a spoon and bowl of this and I’m good to go! 🙂
I think that’s totally acceptable!
Love this! I don’t know why I haven’t tried using aquafaba yet, but you’re inspired me to finally start!
I feel like a lot of people haven’t yet, I KNOW we all want to! Haha!
I’ve heard about aquafaba but haven’t tried using it in anything yet! (I had no idea it was freezer friendly! :O ) This looks so fluffy and awesome! 😀 Such a wonderful idea! :]
It’s so freezer friednly! I don’t always need fluff when I need beans and visa-verse 😉
I remember eating fluff as a kid and loving it! I need to try this healthier version!
Haha, me too and this is MUCH healthier!
Let me count all the things I’d put this fluff on….watermelon, oatmeal, chocolate, peaches, toast, almond butter, and slathered all over my body. Yeah it looks THAT good. OMG!
Watermelon?! Hahahaha! Haha, don’t you just want to dive into a big pool of this!! The life!
I tried making aquafaba before but it was WAY too salty for me. I’d love to be able to make use of it though, so I’m thinking about going back and seeing if they’ve got no salt added cans of chickpeas and try it again with that lol
O gosh, I never buy salted beans!
Aquafaba is magic isn’t it! This looks awesome! All hail vegan marshmallow fluff!
YES! Praise the fluff!
That looks soooo good!
Thanks!
It’s so fluffy I could die! (Still love that movie). Great work making a healthy version of an old favorite!
Hahahahaha! Thank you, Casey!
Wow, this is genius! I honestly would never have thought to use aquafaba.
It is a must to try!
I guess this is my cue to try aquafaba… This looks wonderful!
Yes it is, Diana!
This looks soooo fabulous! I need to invest in a standing mixer, grrr!! Can you ship me some?
The whole reason I asked for the KitchenAid for Christmas this past year was for this exact thing 😛 Hahaha!
This marshmallow fluff looks incredible!
Thank you!
“pillow, floaty, airy, and nothing but love, sweet love” YES!!! This is exactly what makes Monday so. Much. Better. 🙂 I can see from these photos how amazing and fluffy this marshshallow, well, fluff, is! 🙂 I’m so happy you gave us this recipe first, before the recipe that incorporates it! I’ll be dreaming about this pillowy delight all week long. xo
Hahaha <3 This is a good way to start a Monday! I think everyone should always post a sweet lovely recipe to start the week! It is now LAW! Haha! xoxo
OMG, you just made all of my marshmallow dreams come true. I’m actually not a huge fan of actual marshmallows, but I’ve always loved the fluff! This is awesome!
Haha! You are going to LOVE “chickpea” fluff 😉
Awesome! Who doesn’t love marshmallow fluff? I can’t wait to see the killer, fluff filled recipe next week!
Haha, it will change your life 😉 …maybe!
I am obsessed with this! Pinning so I can try this.
Woohoo! It won’t let you down!
This is pretty amazing, Rebecca! I love making homemade fluff. I bet this would work beautifully to make homemade fudge. I must admit that I haven’t tried Aquafaba yet, but clearly it’s time.
Marshmallow studded fudge 😉
WOA Rebecca – this is genius! Thank you!!! My fluffy sweet marshmallow dreams just came true! I had not jumped on the aquafaba train – but am about to now – after seeing this recipe!
Hahaha! You must now! (Topping for those waffles, perhaps? 😉 )
This is SO awesome! I love using aquafaba and this a perfect way to put it to good use!
Yes! The perfect sweet fluffy fun way 😉
I have always wanted to make marshmallow fluff, I’m a vegetarian, but don’t do gelatin and stuff so this is great! I miss rice krispie squares!
I made them yesterday with this!
This looks so perfectly fluffy!
Ultra fluff!
This is such a great idea!! Thanks for sharing this tasty recipe!
Thanks!
I absolutely love that you can use aquafaba for marshmallows! I know so many people who will be happy to see a gelatine free marshmallow recipe 😀
I know I needed to finally have marshmallow back in my life!
Now isn’t this a genius idea! Love everything about this!
Haha, thanks Julie!
now this is just magical! I want to eat this with a spoon 🙂
And that you can 😉
Oh my gosh, Rebecca!! You just answered my prayers!! My favorite sandwich growing up was a fluffernutter – PB & fluff! I’m so happy I can have it once again in vegan form 🙂
HOLY MOLEY!!! You just reminded me of that! I’m making that TODAY with the rest of my fluff! Genious!!!
