Healthy Thanksgiving Dessert Recipe
All the flavours of fall and of course, that scrumptious pumpkin spice seasoning. All made with almond flour and a sugar-free sweetener, making it low carb and keto friendly.

It tastes just as good and sweet as the real thing.
How to Make Keto Pumpkin Pie
Just like making a cake, you’ll need to mix the dry ingredients in one bowl, and wet ingredients in another.
Then, combine the two bowls to make your keto pumpkin pie batter.
Use a hand mixer for a nice and smooth batter.
Make sure to coat a round baking dish with some margarine, butter, or non-stick cooking spray.
Using a rubber scraper spatula to pour all of the batter into the baking dish, spreading evenly.
Bake at 350 degrees ferenheit for 35-40 minutes, or until the toothpick comes out clean.
Sugar-Free Cream Cheese Frosting
Cream cheese frosting is low carb and keto friendly, so long you use your favourite 0-calorie sweetener like stevia, monk fruit, or erythritol.
You’ll also need a teaspoon of vanilla and some heavy cream. Whip it all together with a hand mixer until you get a light and fluffy frosting.
The bit of heavy cream will make it extra fluffy.
Make sure to let your pumpkin pie cool completely before spreading on your frosting.
I even went so far as to adding excessive sprinkles of cinnamon on top of the frosting. And, wow. Just, wow.
Turn It Into a Pumpkin Pie Cake!
Once your pie is frosted and sliced, place one slice on a plate and place another slice right on top of that slice.
This makes it into an extra thick slice of pumpkin goodness, like a big piece of cake with cream cheese right smack in the the middle of it.
