Keto Pumpkin Spice Creamer Recipe

Why Keto Pumpkin Spice Creamer Belongs in Your Fall Routine

• Zero sugar and low-carb, perfect for ketogenic or low‑carb diets

• Made with real heavy cream and pumpkin purée—no artificial additives

• Flavored naturally with pumpkin pie spice, vanilla, and optional cinnamon

• Quick to make (under 10 minutes) and lasts up to one week in the fridge

• Enhances coffee or tea with rich, cozy fall flavor—without the carb crash

Ingredients You’ll Need (~2 Cups Yield)

• 1½ cups heavy cream (or half heavy crema, half water to reduce richness)

• 2 tablespoons unsweetened pumpkin purée (not pie filling)

• 2–3 tablespoons granulated monk fruit erythritol blend (adjust sweetness to taste)

• 1½ teaspoons pumpkin pie spice (or homemade blend: cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves)

• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

• Optional pinch of ground allspice or clove for extra warmth

• Optional cinnamon stick for infusion

Step‑by‑Step Creamer Preparation

1. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine heavy cream, pumpkin purée, monk fruit sweetener, and pumpkin pie spice.

2. Add vanilla extract and optional cinnamon stick for infusion. Stir to combine.

3. Heat gently until it just begins to steam—not boil—while whisking continuously.

4. Simmer lightly for 1–2 minutes to allow spices to bloom and creamer to thicken slightly.

5. Remove from heat; discard cinnamon stick if used. Optionally strain through a fine mesh to remove any spice bits.

6. Let cool slightly, then pour into a clean glass container or bottle.

7. Refrigerate for up to 5–7 days. Shake before each use to remix any separation.

How to Use in Your Keto Coffee Routine

• Stir 1–2 tablespoons into hot coffee or tea for a pumpkin spice kick

• Blend into bulletproof coffee with MCT oil or butter for a creamy fat-rich keto latte

• Combine with cold brew over ice for a chilled pudding-like iced coffee

• Use as flavor boost in keto-friendly smoothies or fall-flavored parfaits

Flavor & Sweetness Adjustments

• Less sugar? Reduce monk fruit amount or use stevia drops instead

• Richer creaminess? Replace part of the heavy cream with coconut cream or cashew cream

• More pumpkin punch? Add another teaspoon of purée or swirl in a tiny amount of pure pumpkin concentrate

• Spice punch up: Add extra pinch of cinnamon, ginger, or a smidge of ground clove

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Can I use almond or coconut milk instead of heavy cream?

Yes. Use unsweetened, full-fat almond or coconut milk, though the creamer will be thinner. For more richness, blend with coconut cream.

Will this curdle in hot coffee?

Rarely, especially if you use higher-fat cream. Stir slowly into moderate-temp coffee and avoid pouring over simmering brew.

Can I freeze it?

Yes—freeze in ice cube trays and pop out cubes to add to coffee as needed. Works especially well for single servings.

Is it safe for keto and low-carb diets?

Absolutely. No added sugar, and only minimal carbs from pumpkin purée. Total net carbs remain under 1 g per serving.

How long does it last in the fridge?

Up to 7 days if kept sealed and refrigerated promptly. Always shake before using and discard if it develops off‑odors or separation.
