Keto Pumpkin Bread
There’s something about the change of seasons that calls for pumpkin everything.
The air turns crisp, the light softens — and suddenly, we’re craving all the cozy things: cinnamon candles, soft sweaters, and that first bite of pumpkin bread.
But here’s the problem…
Most pumpkin breads are little more than sugar and starch disguised as something wholesome. One slice from your favorite café can pack more sugar than a candy bar — and enough refined flour to spike your blood sugar, crash your energy, and send you searching for another “pick-me-up” by afternoon.
That’s the trap of modern comfort food: it comforts you for five minutes… and costs you for hours afterward.
Comfort Reimagined
At Healing Gourmet, we believe comfort food should comfort your body and mind — not confuse your metabolism.
So, we rebuilt this classic from the ground up:
- No gluten, no grains, no refined sugar.
- Just real ingredients — almond flour, coconut flour, pumpkin, and nourishing fats.
- Naturally sweetened with Lakanto Classic, which tastes like sugar but keeps your blood sugar steady.
The result?
A moist, perfectly spiced pumpkin loaf that tastes indulgent — but actually supports your energy, focus, and well-being.
Pumpkin Bread That Loves You Back
This full-size loaf (9×5 inch) makes 12 beautiful slices — ideal for breakfasts, snacks, or a cozy dessert with tea.
Preheat & prepare.
Heat oven to 350 °F (180 °C). Line a 9 × 5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper and lightly grease the sides.
Whip the wet ingredients.
In a large bowl, whisk eggs and Lakanto until pale and frothy (≈ 2 minutes). Add pumpkin purée, melted butter (or oil), and vanilla; mix smooth.
Mix the dry ingredients.
In a separate bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, pumpkin spice, and salt. Whisk to blend.

Combine wet + dry.
Add dry ingredients to wet mixture and stir just until uniform (batter will be thick but spreadable).

Fold in pecans.
Stir in half the pecans. Spread batter into prepared pan and sprinkle remaining pecans on top.

Bake.
Bake 55–65 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs. If browning too quickly, tent with foil after 45 minutes.
Cool completely.
Let loaf rest in pan 10 minutes, then lift out and cool on a wire rack before slicing.
Store or freeze.
Keeps covered at room temperature 2–3 days, refrigerated 1 week, or frozen up to 2 months.
