Keto pumpkin cupcakes

Fall time is my favorite time of the year. Not only because of the cool weather but pumpkin spice. Going crazy over pumpkin spice muffins or even my pecan pumpkin mug cake. Pumpkin is one of those thing you don’t have to give up on the keto diet. There are several recipes that you can sub pumpkin for and make things perfect. A special spice blend of cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves flowing through every part of these gluten free cupcakes. The cream cheese frosting doesn’t have an aftertaste because I use a special sweetener with a blend of allulose and monk fruit.

Is Pumpkin Keto

Yes, canned pumpkin is keto friendly. I have swapped pumpkin for sweet potatoes in a my casserole below. At only 6g net carbs you can eat an entire 1/2 cup of pumpkin. That means you can still have pumpkin spice latte. Isn’t life grand?

How To Make Keto Pumpkin Cupcakes

Grab a can of pumpkin and crack it open. Preheat your oven and melt your butter.

Using gluten free flours only, mix together blanched almond flour and coconut flour. Add your granulated sweetener, pumpkin spice, baking powder and salt to the rest of your dry mix.

Next, inside the melted butter mix in eggs, canned pumpkin, vanilla extract and liquid sweetener.

Keto pumpkin cupcakes

Place inside baking cups and shake the batter down. Bake for 25 minutes, times may vary due to oven. My keto pumpkin cupcakes took around 27-28 minutes to bake.

While the cupcakes are baking make your keto cream cheese frosting. You can add the pumpkin spice into the frosting but it can be subbed out.

Allow them to cool for 15 minutes then serve with frosting. You may have some frosting left over. This recipe can make 8 cupcakes.

Helpful Recipe Tips

  • Sub almond flour for coconut flour? You can remove the coconut flour but you cannot swap the almond flour for coconut flour. Note, if you do remove the coconut flour they will rise but the end texture will not be as moist. It will be more spongy.
  • No canned pumpkin? If you don’t have any canned pumpkin just double your melted butter.
  • Powdered sweetener only in the cream cheese frosting. I used ChipMonk allulose to keep the aftertaste away. I used a small blender to powder the sweetener. This saves money instead of buying two sweeteners. Here is a blender you can use.

Hi, I'm Darius. I am aware that I'm rather young but I started caring about my health years ago. I think it's truly important because at a young age I knew the food they were feeding us was complete b.s, can I curse up here?
