Look no further than this irresistible keto pumpkin bread recipe. Packed with the flavors of fall, this bread is guaranteed to disappear as soon as you make it—unless you hide it away for yourself!
As we bid farewell to summer and send the kiddos back to school (I just did), there’s no better way to embrace the season than with the warm aroma of freshly baked pumpkin.
This keto pumpkin bread will transport you to a cozy kitchen, filled with the delightful scent of spices and sweetness.
We’ve fine-tuned our recipe to perfection, ensuring that every bite of this bread delivers a moist and flavorful explosion of pumpkin. Believe me when I say that keto breads can be a little tricky, but we’ve cracked the code to create a low carb, gluten free masterpiece infused with pumpkin goodness.
I just love making keto bread loaves, whether they are sweet like this keto pumpkin bread or this keto pound cake or more savory like these keto mini bread loaves.
How to Make Keto Pumpkin Bread
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, combine melted butter, eggs, pumpkin, vanilla, liquid stevia, almond milk and heavy whipping cream. Using a hand beater, blend well.
In a separate medium bowl, mix all the dry ingredients except chocolate chips. Add dry ingredients to bowl with pumpkin mix. Mix well.
Coat a regular loaf pan or 4 mini loaf pans with coconut oil.
Add mixture evenly. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until the toothpick test is clean. Remove from the oven and sprinkle the top with chocolate chips. Turn the oven off, put the loaf/loaves back in, and let sit for 5 minutes to melt the chocolate chips. Serve warm or cold!
Keto Pumpkin Bread Kitchen Essentials
Nothing special is needed to make this delicious low carb pumpkin bread. Just a few kitchen items:
- Measuring Cups and spoons
- Mixing Bowl
- Mixing Spatula
- Hand Beaters
- Mini Loaf Pan or Regular Loaf Pan – either will do! I made 4 mini muffin loaves!
Low Carb Sweeteners for Pumpkin Bread
When it comes to sweetening the keto pumpkin bread, I prefer the combination of Allulose and Monk Fruit. This dynamic duo blends seamlessly, with no aftertaste (like erythritol) and enhances the overall flavor. I use the Besti brand which is my favorite! However, feel free to experiment with other low-carb sweeteners like Lakanto Monk Fruit or Swerve if that’s more to your liking.
As with most pumpkin recipes, this keto pumpkin bread recipe is loaded with ingredients that naturally act as sweeteners. We have both pumpkin and chocolate chips that do just the trick. These naturally sweeten the flavor of almost any recipe.
Flours Used in this Low Carb Pumpkin Bread
Some people love gluten free pumpkin bread. Some people love almond flour pumpkin bread. And other people prefer coconut pumpkin bread.
Why not be able to enjoy all three in the same easy pumpkin bread recipe? Um, YES!
This keto pumpkin bread is, of course, gluten free. It also contains both almond flour AND coconut flour because those flours work so beautifully together.
What to Serve with Keto Pumpkin Bread
When it comes to serving keto pumpkin bread, do you even need to serve it with anything? Nope! Having said that, there are a ton of tasty sides to consider.
For breakfast or brunch, you can’t go wrong with a dollop of rich and creamy homemade keto whipped cream or a generous slather of creamy butter.
If you’re looking for a savory twist, try pairing your pumpkin bread with some slices of crispy bacon or a side of scrambled eggs. If you want to add a sprinkle of fancy, then perhaps a spread of cream cheese or almond butter would add a delightful contrast to the sweetness of the bread.
And let’s not forget the classic combination of a warm cup of black coffee or a soothing herbal tea to complete the experience.

It says that the recipe yields 32. Does that mean you slice a large loaf into 32 slices?
I wish there was a way to have TWO nutrition cards! The 32 is more for the 4 small loaves where each can be easily sliced into 8 pieces (hence 32). For a single larger loaf, I generally will cut thin slices, more like 16. So you generally will eat more in a sitting with a larger loaf than a smaller one simply due to the ease of slicing! But you can still eyeball it and if you want to stick with the macros listed, cut a thin slice and cut it in half. It is very filling, so you don’t need much!
Does this need to be refrigerated?
I would recommend it, yes!
