Keto Pumpkin Bread

When you have a fantastic keto bread that everyone loves, it's pretty easy to create other fabulous breads from that base.

My Keto Nut Free Coconut Flour Bread is one of those breads that when viral quickly simply because it doesn't need any fancy ingredients and it's super simple with amazing results every time! 

Adapting from that bread, I created my Keto Banana Bread that is in my cookbook with over 125 keto recipes, Naturally Keto. I shared it with all of you on my blog as well because so many of you requested that adaptation.

I knew I could adapt my bread to become a pumpkin bread, but decided on a little twist. The browned butter combined with pumpkin pie spice makes this bread explode with pumpkin flavor and is over the top amazing!

Keeping it with my traditional coconut flour bread recipe, this Keto Brown Butter Pumpkin Bread is also simple to make, no difficult or hard to find ingredients and also nut free, gluten free, sugar free, and grain free!

If you're on a low carb diet for weight loss, this keto bread can be included without causing sugar and carb cravings and raising your blood sugar having 7 total grams of carbs and 4 grams of fiber.

Is Pumpkin Keto Friendly?

You can include pumpkin in small amounts on your keto diet. A ½ cup canned pure pumpkin has 9.9 grams of total carbs. Most keto recipes use that amount in the whole recipe like in this keto pumpkin bread I'm sharing today.

2 tablespoons has just 2.5 grams of carbs, and just 10 calories. It's really all about portions when it comes to including certain vegetables on your ketogenic diet.

Are Pumpkin Seeds Keto?

Yes pumpkin seeds are keto friendly and can be enjoyed regularly.

2 tablespoons of roasted, salted pumpkin seeds have 85 calories and 2.2 grams of carbs, 4.4 grams of protein and a healthy fat amount of 7.2 grams, making them a wonderful snack or topping on a salad.

Can I use homemade Pumpkin Puree?

Yes you can absolutely replace the canned pumpkin I used with homemade pumpkin puree in the same amount.

Can I use canned pumpkin Pie Filling?

Please do not use canned pumpkin pie filling because it is full of sugar and high in carbs. You want to look for canned pure pumpkin with no other ingredients.

How To Brown Butter

Browning butter is a fabulous way to create a caramel flavor to your butter. It tastes a little sweet and savory at the same time and is just fantastic added to muffins, pancakes and of course breads!

It's not difficult to brown butter, but you do need to be careful not to burn it. Using a light colored frying pan will help you better see the color the butter is turning.

Before the butter starts browning, it will foam, continue to stir and you will start to see brown bits on the bottom of the pan.

Once it's a toasty brown color, take it off the heat and continue to stir it for another minute then add it to you the batter you are working with.

Allow to cool before adding it hot right off the stove to anything that has raw eggs in it, otherwise they will cook with the heat from the butter.

Ingredients

Unsalted butter or use coconut oil for dairy free

Cup of pumpkin puree

Coconut flour 

Ground flaxseed 

Baking powder

Sea salt

Xanthan gum 

Swerve brown sugar sub 

Unsweetened almond milk or use coconut milk or heavy cream for nut free

Pumpkin pie spice

Pumpkin liquid stevia or vanilla stevia

Vanilla extract

Maple extract

Large eggs, room temperature

Optional topping: sugar free chocolate chips

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Cut the butter into pieces and heat a light colored skillet over medium heat. As it melts, stir constantly. It will bubble and foam, keep stirring and it will start to brown.  

When it's a shade lighter than you think it should be, take it off the heat so it doesn't burn.

Pour this into a stand mixer with the pumpkin, coconut, flax, baking powder, salt, xanthan gum and Swerve. Mix until combined.

Add the almond milk to the pan you used for browning the butter.Scrape the bottom of the pan with a spoon as the milk is warming through from the hot pan.

Heat the milk for 1-2 minutes then pour into the stand mixer. Add in the pumpkin spice, pumpkin stevia, vanilla and maple extract.

Mix these ingredients on low speed, until smooth and combined.

Once combined well, add in 1 egg at a time. Stir in chocolate chips if desired.

Once combined pour the batter into a parchment lined 8 by 4 loaf pan.

Bake 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick in center comes out clean.

Allow to cool 15 minutes before removing to a wire rack. Enjoy for breakfast snack or as a keto dessert!
