Enjoy a slice of this moist keto pumpkin bread for breakfast or afternoon tea. It's made with coconut flour and is also gluten free and dairy free.
Moist, full of warm spices with a slight crunch of chopped pecans this is a perfect Fall pumpkin recipe. Equally delicious served plain, I like to serve mine with a cream cheese topping and chopped pecans.
What's a keto pumpkin bread?
This could almost pass for a loaf cake. A keto pumpkin bread is a sweet bread recipe with warm spices, pumpkin puree and a low carb flour. Almond flour could be used but I have used coconut flour for this recipe.
How to make low carb pumpkin bread
I've kept this moist pumpkin bread dairy free by using coconut oil in place of butter. The moisture of the pumpkin puree keeps the need for any dairy to make a moist pumpkin bread.
Just one bowl is needed for this recipe and it's a simply as whisking the ingredients together to make a smooth batter. You will need patience baking this as it will take at least and hour. If the bread looks a bit too moist after 60 minutes, bake for an additional 10 minutes.
Recipe Tips
Make sure all the ingredients such as the eggs and coconut oil are at room temperature.
Pecans are optional but try other nuts such as walnuts for a slight crunch.

Hi Angela, I’d love to make this but I don’t see how much erythritol should be used. Can you clarify?
