Keto Pumpkin Bars

There are only nine ingredients in this keto pumpkin bars recipe, unless you add optional keto chocolate chips or top these keto pumpkin bars with Keto Cream Cheese Frosting.

You can easily have these low carb pumpkin bars in the oven in less than ten minutes.

I use Swerve granulated sugar replacement in this low carb pumpkin bar recipe but you can also use Lakanto Monkfruit Sweetener or Lakanto Maple Flavored Syrup.

I haven't tried other sweeteners in this recipe yet. If you use another sweetener please come back and let me know how it turned out.

What is the difference between almond flour and almond meal?

Almond flour is typically made from blanched almonds which have had the skins removed, and is ground more finely than almond meal, which typically still contains the skins and has a more coarse grind.

You can use either almond flour or almond meal in this keto pumpkin bars recipe.

Keto Pumpkin Bars Recipe

For this keto pumpkin bars recipe you can use either a glass pan or a metal pan. I find that both work equally as well. Use an 8X8 pan for best results.

If you want thicker pumpkin bars you can use a smaller pan but you'll need to adjust your cook time.

Tips for working with almond flour

One thing to note about using almond flour is that it is NOT a 1-to-1 for other flours. It has a lot more protein and fat, and less starch, so it reacts differently in recipes.

It’s best stored in the refrigerator or freezer if you’re not going to use it up in a week or two.

Always bring Almond meal or flour to room temperature before baking with it. If you use it cold, it’ll absorb more of the liquid and your batter will be thicker than it should be.

What can I substitute for the eggs?

One of my readers used ½ cup applesauce and 2 tsp baking powder as a substitute for the eggs. You can also use flax egg, or chia egg just note that the bars will be wetter.

Can I use butter instead of oil?

Yes, you can use melted and cooled butter, or your oil of choice in this recipe. Just note that the texture may vary slightly.

Do I have to top these low carb pumpkin bars with frosting?

Not at all! My favorite way to enjoy these low carb pumpkin bars is with sweet cream butter spread on top. I give a link to a keto cream cheese frosting as an option for those that like their keto pumpkin bars a little sweeter.

You can also add in ½ cup of keto friendly chocolate chips to make these sugar-free pumpkin bars a little sweeter.

We like to use almond flour in our baked goods. Almond flour adds extra texture and healthy fats and proteins, making it our baking flour of choice.
