Keto Pumpkin Pie Recipe - Gluten-Free, Dairy- Free Option

If you like my paleo pumpkin pie recipe sweetened with honey but you cannot tolerate honey because of hormonal imbalances like Diabetes type 2, PCOS, or endometriosis, you will love this Keto Pumpkin Pie recipe.

As you may know, bad oils, gluten, and artificial sweeteners destroy the walls of your gut.  In turn, this depletes your energy, causes your skin to break out, and causes stomach pain.  Making this recipe instead of a conventional pumpkin pie recipe will help reduce the stress that the immune system often experiences this time of year. ⁠  

Why Stevia instead of Honey?

Most of my clients consuming honey have increased symptoms of acne, blood sugar dysregulation, skin issues, etc. This is primarily because honey contains fructose and fructose goes strait to the liver to be processed. This adds an extra burden on the liver to detoxify when it has to metabolize fructose in high amounts. Because of this many of my clients need to reduce liver toxicity and avoid fructose for a period of time. Stevia tincture is a prime choice to use as a sweetener. It is naturally low in histamine and does not burden the liver.

Nut free Crust Option

I’ve searched far and wide for the perfect nut-free paleo crust that also doesn’t have too much starch. This uses my favorite coconut flour which is light and nutrient-dense.

Here is a pumpkin pie recipe that is Paleo and GAPS friendly.  Enjoy this simple recipe that your family/friends will enjoy and that won’t wreak havoc on your body:
