Keto Pumpkin Cookies

You know what I miss the most while being in Keto? SUGAR! Like a brownie or cake or even gummy bears. I am always craving sugar and its so hard to get over the loss of sugar. Im always on a lookout for a great dessert that will give me that sugar feeling. So while scrolling through Pinterest, I came across a pumpkin cookie that sounded good. I love anything pumpkin! So when I find something with pumpkin and Keto, I've got to try it. 

I found the original recipe from Fit Mom Journey on Pinterest. I changed it up just a bit. I also didn't make the frosting but next time I would. I feel that they would have been better with the frosting. But It didn't stop me from eating a whole bunch of cookies! I even shared some at work, and they were pretty pleased with them! Keto for the WIN! 

Let me show you how I made these Pumpkin Cookies and what I thought about them. 

Ingredients 
  • 8 oz Cream Cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup Pumpkin Puree
  • 1/2 cup Butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup Swerve Sweetener
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 tsp. Vanilla Extract
  • 1/2 tsp. Pumpkin Pie Spice
  • 2/3 cup Coconut Flour
  • 2 tsp. Baking Powder
  • 1/2 tsp. Salt

  • Instructions

    1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.

    2. Beat cream cheese, butter, pumpkin puree, and powdered sweetener. 


    3.Add in the eggs and vanilla and beat until fluffy.

    4. Add in the coconut flour, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, and salt, stirring until just combined.
    5. Drop by cookie scoop onto the prepared baking sheets.
     
    6. Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes until the edges just barely start to brown. 

    7. Cool cookies on baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to countertop to cool. 1 sheet of cookies came out a little too done, but the other was just perfect. I think next time I will bake 1 sheet at a time.  

    Is this something you would make while on Keto?

    1. I made these today... they were a huge hit! Took them with me to a little family gathering. My nieces and nephews had never had pumpkin anything before and they loved them, as did my parents. My nephew even ended up "stealing" the three that were left at the end. I also want you to make pumpkin best breads for breakfast.
