7 Low Carb Pumpkin Recipes – The Best Easy Keto Diet Friendly pumpkin recipe ideas including pancakes, salad, pie, bread and more.
Low Carb Pumpkin Recipes
Yes, you can have pumpkin during fall season when you’re following a low carb diet like the Keto Diet. You can’t go crazy and have a whole can of pumpkin puree or use endless amounts of pumpkin in recipes.
The trick is to use just enough to enjoy the flavor (and nutrition) that pumpkin brings, without consuming a week’s worth of carbs in a meal.
7 Low Carb Pumpkin Recipes
Here are 7 of the best keto pumpkin recipes that have a low carb count and are made with easy to find ingredients at your local grocery store.
1. Paleo Pumpkin Pancakes
I just love aliteration, so couldn’t resist the triple P recipe title. The pancakes also happen to be keto and low carb lifestyle friendly and delicious.
The pancakes that are low in grams of carbs come together by simply whisking together store bought canned pumpkins or homemade pumpkin puree, eggs, cinnamon, vanilla extract, maple extract and stevia with only a few tablespoons of coconut flour. (You can of course swap for almond flour or almond meal if you’d prefer, adding enough to form the perfect pancake batter.)
Then, it’s just a matter of frying the pancakes batter in a little melted butter or coconut oil until golden on both sides, cooked through and the perfect texture. The best part is that toppings like whipped heavy cream is full of healthy fats and permitted on a low carb diet.
