Since pumpkin is naturally starchy, can you truly make it keto-friendly? While it contains more carbs per serving than many vegetables, keto pumpkin recipes use such a small amount that you can easily fit it into your macros. In larger servings, pumpkin is the perfect starch for carb refeed days if you follow a cyclical ketogenic diet. Steam your own pumpkin or get a high-quality canned version without BPA for best results.

Pumpkin tastes amazing sweet or savory — no matter how you prep it, you’ll want to make these keto pumpkin recipes all season long.
