Paleo Pumpkin Pie Bar Recipe (Sugar-free + Keto)

Paleo Pumpkin Pie Bar Recipe (Sugar-free / Keto-friendly)

Halloween has passed and you’re likely now stuck with a bunch of old pumpkins and a lingering sugar hangover. Luckily for you, this keto & paleo pumpkin pie bar is the solution to all of your problems. Made with low-carb, grain-free flours and monk fruit sweetener instead of sugar it’s the perfect low-sugar healthy treat to easy you out of your sugar-coma.

If you’re feeling ambitious you can roast up those old pumpkins to use as your pumpkin puree, but canned pumpkin works just as well in this recipe. I’ve eaten a slice every morning for breakfast for the past week and I’m still not sick of them. I hope you enjoy my pumpkin bars from This Doctor’s Kitchen as much as I do.
