Keto Pumpkin Spice Muffins

15 ratings

Keto Pumpkin Spice Muffins are easy to make at home using good-for-you ingredients like pumpkin puree, almond flour, and stevia-sweetened white chocolate chips. The muffins are indulgent without being too rich. They would pair perfectly with a hot cup of coffee for a quick low carb snack or breakfast. The muffin batter is really simple to make, and you can mix the ingredients in a single bowl with a spoon or whisk. Feel free to swap the white chocolate chips for other flavors too.

What kind of pumpkin should I use?

Canned pumpkin is the easiest puree to use because it is ready to go from the can.

What is the best sweetener for this?

We like to use powdered erythritol, but a powdered erythritol/monk fruit blend would work well and taste like real sugar.

Is this recipe Paleo?

No, this recipe is not Paleo due to the addition of baking powder and baking soda.

Serving suggestions

To make the ultimate breakfast pairing, serve these Keto Pumpkin Spice Muffins with our Keto Pumpkin Spice Butter Coffee:

Recipe Steps

steps 5

45 min

  • Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 F. Combine the liquid ingredients together, including the eggs, canned pumpkin, almond butter (or you can use mixed nut butter), and vanilla extract. You can use a whisk or spoon to incorporate the ingredients.
    Step 1
  • Step 2

    Next, add almond flour, powdered sweetener, baking soda, baking powder, and pumpkin pie spice. You can use a spoon or a whisk to incorporate the ingredients. The batter will be thick.
    Step 2
  • Step 3

    Next, add half of the white chocolate chips and fold them in with a spoon or spatula. You will use the other half of the chocolate chips to top the muffins before going into the oven. This part is optional but it will give a nice appearance to the final muffins.
    Step 3
  • Step 4

    Line a 12-count muffin tin with cupcake liners and evenly divide the batter into each liner. Top each with a few chocolate chips from the remaining chocolate chips. Bake for 22-25 minutes or until fully baked through.
    Step 4
  • Step 5

    Allow the muffins to cool slightly before removing them from the pan. These muffins will store at room temperature for up to three days. After that, store them in the freezer, where they will stay just as moist and delicious.

    These were delicious!!! So amazing. I froze these and ate them over a couple weeks on keto. I followed the recipe but don't really like white chocolate so I did Lily's semi sweet and they were such a treat. Will be making again soon!

      Used brown sugar stevia/Erytritol mix and lily's chocolate chips. Sublime!

        I wonder if u can remove the yokes, wip up the egg whites, and have them taste less eggy and fluff them up more.

          Made these last evening- very good- reduced sugar substitute and didn’t add white chocolate chips- but added 1/2 cup of blueberries. Baking took quite some time at 350 but will make again and bake a bit higher temp. Otherwise, very tasty and whole house loves them!

            So good! Used dark chocolate chips instead. Took a lot longer than 25 mins for me to bake them though.

                This was amazing. My husband is not keto and tends to turn his nose up at most of these recipes but even he agreed these were tasty.

                  Love these so much I could eat them every day! I added more pumpkin spice because I love a lot of flavor.

                      Please say this is not 18.5 carbs???

                        It's 3.6 net carbs

                        They are 4 g net carbs! 18.5 g is total carbs including all fiber and sugar alcohols but since those are not digested they are subtracted from the total amount leaving 4 g.

                            Erythritol, Xylitol or stevia should work.

                          Could this be made with coconut flour instead? How would I adjust the recipe?

                            Yes, you could use about 3 tbsp coconut flour in substitute for the almond flour.
