The ingredients needed to make these muffins

You’ll only need a few ingredients to make these tasty muffins (exact measurements are listed in the recipe card below):

1. Eggs
2. Pumpkin puree (a healthy ingredient)
3. Unsalted butter
4. Sweetener (I use stevia)
5. Vanilla extract
6. Ground cinnamon
7. Coconut flour
8. Baking powder

How to make keto pumpkin muffins

It’s so easy! Scroll down to the recipe card for the detailed instructions. Here are the basic steps:

1. Simply whisk together all the ingredients in one bowl, adding the coconut flour and baking powder last.
2. Transfer to foil-lined muffin cups and bake about 25 minutes at 350°F.
3. Cool the muffins completely before enjoying them.

What flour to use in keto pumpkin muffins

I use coconut flour in this recipe. So it’s not just healthy and gluten-free but also keto and low carb, and it’s suitable for those allergic to nuts, who can’t use almond flour.

Baking with coconut flour is easy once you figure out the correct ratios. You simply need to add enough eggs and liquids to the batter, to keep it from drying out.

How to sweeten keto pumpkin muffins

I use stevia glycerite in these muffins to keep them keto and low carb. I like stevia glycerite because it nearly eliminates the bitter aftertaste typical to other stevia products. And I believe that stevia is safe.

If you absolutely can’t stand stevia, you can try replacing it with 1/3 cup of your favorite granulated sweetener.

If you do, check the batter. You might need to add a little water if it’s too dry. Please keep in mind that I only tested this recipe with stevia.

Use foil liners when baking these muffins

I prefer to use foil liners when baking with coconut flour. It’s been my experience that coconut flour muffins tend to stick to paper liners, and even to silicone liners.

How to store keto pumpkin muffins

Once completely cool, store them in a sealed container in the fridge for up to a week. Remove them from the fridge an hour before you plan on eating them.

Alternatively, warm them up just a little in the microwave on 50% power, 10 seconds per muffin.

INGREDIENTS

• Avocado oil for liners
• 4 large eggs
• 1/2 cup pure pumpkin puree
• 4 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
• 1 teaspoon stevia glycerite (equals about 1/3 cup sugar)
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 6 tablespoons coconut flour (44 grams)
• 1 teaspoon baking powder (gluten free if needed)

INSTRUCTIONS

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line 6 muffin cups with foil or silicone liners and spray the liners with oil. You can use well-greased paper liners, but that would increase the risk of sticking.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, pumpkin puree, melted butter, stevia, vanilla, and cinnamon.
• Whisk in the coconut flour, mixing patiently until very smooth. Finally, mix in the baking powder.
• Using a 4-tablespoon ice cream scoop, pour the batter into the prepared muffin cups.
• Bake until set and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 22-25 minutes
• Transfer the muffins to a cooling rack and cool completely before enjoying. Texture improves when they reach room temperature.
