With the right approach, you can incorporate pumpkin into keto recipes. Pumpkin contains beneficial compounds for brain and eye health, all while adding natural creaminess to desserts like keto pumpkin pie. Even though pumpkin contains starch, you can still enjoy all your favorite fall foods (including pumpkin spice lattes) without increasing the net carbs too much.
Many keto pumpkin pie recipes use eggs or inflammatory heavy cream to capture the custard-like base. This version uses a key ingredient to capture that iconic pumpkin pie wobble without having to cook any eggs: Gelatin! Collagelatin allows the pumpkin base to set while adding vital protein to support healthier skin and joints. Now you can have your cake (or pie), and eat it too.
Serve this no-bake keto pumpkin pie with low-carb garnishes like vanilla ice cream or whipped coconut cream for a holiday dessert everyone will love.
