About This Recipe

This Keto Pumpkin Spice Latte captures everything you love about autumn — the smell of cinnamon and nutmeg, the warm golden color, the first sip that feels like a blanket. The difference? This one won’t spike your blood sugar or kick you out of ketosis.

Most store-bought pumpkin spice drinks are loaded with sugar — often over 50 grams per cup. This version cuts that down to nearly zero by swapping syrups for real pumpkin purée, natural spices, and a touch of keto-friendly sweetener. You still get that creamy café texture and sweet pumpkin flavor, but in a way that supports your goals instead of wrecking them.

The base is strong brewed coffee or espresso, blended with pumpkin purée, heavy cream (or coconut cream for dairy-free), and warming spices: cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and clove. When you blend it together, the texture becomes velvety smooth — the kind of drink that coats your tongue like melted dessert. The whipped cream on top is optional, but let’s be honest, it completes the ritual.

It’s the perfect recipe for cozy mornings, crisp afternoons, or that mid-evening treat when you want something indulgent but still keto. It’s also ridiculously easy: just heat, blend, and sip. No syrups, no weird ingredients, just pure fall flavor in a mug.

Once you try this version, you’ll never pay $6 for a Starbucks cup of sugar again. It’s fast, rich, and completely guilt-free — comfort with discipline, autumn with macros.
