This Low Carb Pumpkin Crisp is the ultimate holiday recipe to make this year and every year moving forward! It combines the deliciousness of a pumpkin pie and an apple crisp and it will fit perfectly into your low carb diet. Being keto doesn’t mean missing out on delicious holiday recipes.
We’ve Got All The Keto Holiday Recipes
When the holiday season rolls around and it’s your turn to host, we’ve got you covered! We’ve been making low carb holiday recipes for a total of three years now and we have everything from desserts to sides dishes. However, if you’re like us and celebrate Thanksgiving solo or just with a small group of people you can make our bone-in turkey breast and gravy recipe so you’re not left with 12 lbs of leftover turkey! While not traditionally a holiday recipe, my favorite dessert that I highly recommend you make is our Keto Butter Cake!
Our Favorite Low Carb Pumpkin Recipes!
If I can be honest for a moment, I’m not a huge fan of pumpkin. When given the option of pumpkin spice or chocolate flavoring I’m going chocolate all the way. That being said, we do have some incredible keto pumpkin recipes for the holiday season and all you pumpkin lovers!
My favorite, aside from this crisp, has to be our mini pumpkin cheesecakes! They are the perfect appetizer or dessert to start off any holiday gathering. If you’re looking for a low carb side dish we have a sweet potato casserole that uses pumpkin pie puree and mashed cauliflower! Don’t knock it until you try it – it tastes like the real thing!
And, if you’re just looking for a quick dessert to top off the night we have an easy pumpkin pie mug cake you can make in under two minutes! Pumpkin can definitely be included on a keto diet in moderation.
Low Carb Pumpkin Crisp
Don’t forget about yourself this holiday season. Being around all the desserts, alcohol and loved ones can make sticking to your new lifestyle difficult. Sometimes you just have to put yourself and focus on how far you’re come. You can enjoy holiday dessert this year and still stay on track with this low carb pumpkin crisp!

I’ve never had luck trying to count drops of liquid stevia get to much out as it never comes out in a drop. What would they measure in teaspoons
We have a helpful chart that gives you the measurements! You can find it here: Low Carb Sweetener Conversion Chart.
This is a great recipe loving it for Thanksgiving.
I’m going to make this for Thanksgiving! Thank you guys for posting!!
I only have flavored stevia drops,.. can I omit the liquid stevia and add more of the erythritol?! (Monk fruit blend, or other dry form?!?) Thanks! Sounds amazing!❤️
Yes, feel free to use the sweetener you have or like best!
I used the whole can and it was great. no extra egg needed.
This dessert is wonderful with sweetness and crunch. I will make this again at Thanksgiving. Yum!
I made this (exactly as written) as one of several low carb Christmas desserts. It is absolutely divine. I was so glad more people went for the chocolate desserts. I ended up eating the leftovers the next day straight out of the pan! Thank you!
If you baked this the night before and refrigerated over night how would you recommend reheating?
Should I add other egg if doing the whole can of pumpkin?
Regarding the 1/2 cup erythritol in the filling – is it granulated or confectioners and the 1/4 cup erythritol in the topping – is it granulated or confectioners? Thank you so much!!
Granulated 🙂
Can you suggest a nut free version for the topping? But allergies here.
You could sprinkle some pumpkin seeds and coconut flakes!
Was so easy to make and was so delicious.
Most of the recipes I see have almond flour, will this still work with coconut flour and how much? 1/4 cup?
Yeah, I think that could work. Would probably change the texture some but worth a try if you can’t use almond flour!
Jackie, did you try with coconut flour. I am about to make it with that instead of almond. Any tips.
Just made this OMG, this has become my favourite low carb desert by far, thanks Megha & Matt.
Delicious! My husband who doesn’t love pumpkin went nuts and said to “put this recipe in a special book”! Thx!
Just made this and it’s delicious!!! This recipe was so easy to make!!
Help me out here. When I import this recipe into my fitness pal, it only copies the filling and not the topping. When I add the topping. It becomes far from low carb. I have triple checked my manual entries and the import and am a loss as to how this is low carb! Please explain.
Looks good. But I really wish I could Pin it.
Of I use liquid monkfruit, will it change the amount of liquid sweetener? It sounds delish!!
