No-Bake Keto Pumpkin Pie Recipe
MCT oil is great for boosting the metabolism. Wildly Organic MCT Oil is made with 100% medium-chain triglycerides from organic coconuts. They’re easy to digest and can help enhance energy, too. It’s also easy to add MCT oil to all kinds of recipes. Think smoothies, coffee, and salad dressings, for example. Let’s not stop there, though! The creamy, fluffy, no-bake pumpkin filling for this pie is also the perfect place to add MCT oil.
How about a twist on almond flour pie crust? I love experimenting with flavors and changing things up when I’m creating recipes. Chocolate and pumpkin go so well together so why not add Wildly Organic Cacao Powder to this easy almond flour crust? It’s a terrific way to get the healthy benefits of cacao into your foods, too.
What are the benefits of raw, fermented cacao powder?
- More antioxidant flavonoids than red wine, green tea, and blueberries!
- Excellent source of iron and protein.
- High in fiber.
The darker-colored crust also creates a stunning contrast with the lighter, pumpkin color of the filling. Food should look amazing, too, right?
There is no need to feel deprived this holiday season with this easy no-bake keto pumpkin pie! Whether you are tasked with preparing a holiday meal for the family or just bringing a dish to contribute, this pie is just what you need. It’s delicious enough that anyone will enjoy it!
