The Keto Lady Pumpkin Bars
The Keto Lady Pumpkin Bars
This is so yummy! Look no further for a simple pumpkin bar!!
Pre heat oven to 350
Recipe for filling :
8 oz cream cheese softened
1/4 cup cup swerve I used granulated
1 tablespoon of coconut flour
1 egg
1 tsp orange extract ( really nice flavor)
1 Squirt liquid stevia ( to cut cooling effect of sweetener)
Ingredients for the bread :
2 cups of Almond flour ( sifted)
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt I use pink
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1/4 cup granulated swerve
3 eggs
1 cup pumpkin puree (organic) (Make sure its just pumpkin)
1/4 cup coconut oil melted
I lined an 8 x 8 inch brownie pan with parchment paper
Then I mixed all the filling ingredients with a hand mixer and set aside.
Did the same with the bread ingredients put wet in first then added in almond flour, swerve, spices and baking powder. mixed well with a hand mixer.
Put half of the mixture in the pan then put the filling on top and repeat the layer. Do not push the cream cheese filling to the edges. Try and keep just in the middle. You do not have to worry this will all rise beautifully!
I put a little bit of Brown sugar swerve on top mixed with cinnamon and crushed pecans. Top it how you like, or nothing at all!
Bake in pre heated oven on the lower rack for 30 mins or until your toothpick comes out clean. I then shut my oven off and let sit and cool. Make sure its cooled before cutting!!
