This keto pumpkin pie is a delicious alternative to the classic recipe. Mixing it takes ten minutes, and the oven does the rest. It has only 120 calories and 5 grams of net carbs per slice!

This keto pumpkin pie is incredibly creamy and flavorful. I don't bother with a crust because the filling is the star of the show, and no crust means less work and fewer carbs and calories. My husband and I look forward to enjoying it every year for Thanksgiving, and we do not miss the high-carb version at all.

Ingredients

See the recipe card for exact measurements. Here are my comments on some of the ingredients.

Coconut oil for the pan: The pan should be well-greased to avoid sticking. You can also use unsalted butter or ghee.
Canned pumpkin puree: Make sure it's unsweetened - you want pure pumpkin puree, not sweetened pumpkin pie filling. The cans can look very similar.
Sweetener: I use stevia. You can use a granulated sweetener to equal ½ - ¾ cup of sugar instead of stevia.
Pumpkin pie spice: Substitute ground cinnamon for a milder flavor profile.
Canned coconut milk: Please use full-fat coconut milk in this recipe, not reduced-fat.
Coconut flour: It's best to measure it by weight. It's highly absorbent and drying, so each gram makes a difference.

Instructions

The detailed instructions and step-by-step photos are included in the recipe card. Here's a quick overview.

Combine the eggs, pumpkin, stevia, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla. Add the coconut milk and coconut flour.

Transfer the mixture to a greased 9-inch pie plate. Bake the pie in a preheated 350°F oven until the center appears set (with just the slightest jiggle). In my oven, this takes 40-45 minutes.

Cool the pie for two hours on a cooling rack, then cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate the pie for at least two more hours before slicing and serving. When ready to slice the pie, gently run a knife along the edges. Use a sharp knife to slice, and firmly slide a cake server underneath each slice before you lift it up.

Made a trial run for Thanksgiving. So glad to have found your website! Hubby and I are trying to eat low-carb, and it seemed so hard until we found you. This pie was delicious and so creamy. Definitely making it (and your turkey wings) for our two-person Thanksgiving this year.

Recipe Tips

Stir the Coconut Milk

It's important to stir coconut milk well before using it. It's easier to stir if you pour it into a bowl and use a hand whisk.

Let it Rest

Much like a keto cheesecake, it's important to let the pie cool completely before attempting to slice it. Two hours on the counter and two more hours in the fridge is the minimum. Overnight in the fridge is better.

Slicing the Pie

This pie is basically a custard without a crust. It's creamy and delicate, so after slicing it, removing the slices from the pan can prove challenging. Don't let that deter you! Work slowly and carefully. Slide a cake server underneath each slice and slowly lift it up, as shown in the photo below. Use your fingers to help if needed. Sometimes, I use a dinner knife instead of a cake server. It's easier because a cake server can be too wide and not as easy to control.

How to Serve

Keto pumpkin pie is delicious all by itself and even better topped with a generous dollop of keto whipped cream. Sometimes, I sprinkle the whipped cream with a bit of cinnamon. If you like the flavor combination of pumpkin and chocolate, you can top the pie slices with chocolate whipped cream.

Storage

You can keep the leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Place them on paper towels to absorb extra moisture, and replace the paper towels daily. You can also freeze this pie. Let it cool completely, then wrap it in plastic wrap, followed by foil.

Ingredients

▢ 1 teaspoon coconut oil - for the pan
▢ 3 large eggs
▢ 15 ounces pure pumpkin puree - unsweetened
▢ 1 ½ teaspoons stevia glycerite - equals ½ cup of sugar
▢ 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
▢ 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
▢ 1 cup canned coconut milk - full-fat, unsweetened
▢ 2 tablespoons coconut flour - 14 grams

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9-inch pie plate with coconut oil.
In a large bowl, using a hand whisk, lightly whisk the eggs. Add the pumpkin, stevia, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla. Whisk until well incorporated.
Shake the coconut milk can well. Open the can and stir it thoroughly. Measure 1 cup (make sure it's smooth and free of lumps) and add it to the pumpkin mixture, whisking to combine. Whisk in the coconut flour.
Using a rubber spatula, transfer the mixture to the prepared pie plate. Bake the pie until the center appears set (with just the slightest jiggle), and a toothpick inserted in it comes out just a little moist but free of batter. In my oven, this takes about 40-45 minutes.
Cool the pie for 2 hours on a cooling rack, then cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate the pie for at least 2 more hours (preferably overnight) before slicing and serving.
When ready to slice the pie, gently run a knife along the edges to help release it from the pan. Use a sharp knife to slice the pie, and firmly slide a cake server underneath each slice before you lift it up. The pie is fragile, so take care when you slice it, especially when you lift the slices up from the pan.
