Easy Keto Pumpkin Recipes

Nothing beats the best low carb pumpkin recipes in the fall! There’s something about these keto pumpkin recipes that will warm the heart and bring in all the holiday vibes. All you need is a can of pumpkin (or freshly made puree if you’re up for it), a bowl, and some basic ingredients, like butter, almond flour, eggs, sweetener, and vanilla extract. Of course, don’t forget the spices — cinnamon, cloves, and ginger are all common, or keep it simple by using pumpkin seasoning mix.

Most of these recipes fall into the keto dessert category, though you can make savory ones too. You might think that all the sweetness means you need to skip pumpkin if you’re following a low carb lifestyle, but that’s not the case.

Simply use your favorite keto sweeteners and you can enjoy all the pumpkin along with everyone else. (My favorite is monk fruit allulose blend!)

Is Pumpkin Keto?

Yes, pumpkin is keto friendly! While winter squash varieties like pumpkin are higher in carbs than summer squash (such as zucchini), most keto pumpkin recipes use no more than one can of pumpkin in a whole batch, leaving the carbs low enough to enjoy on a low carb or keto diet.

I recommend using a homemade pumpkin pie spice in your recipes, to ensure there are no added sugars or starches.
