Keto Pumpkin Donuts with Cream Cheese Recipe

I’m so excited to tell you about this Keto Pumpkin Donuts Recipe! These are definitely a delicious fall treat, but really could be enjoyed any time of the year.

Of course, I was playing around with all things that can be pumpkin, because it is such a wonderful ingredient during the cold months. Now that these donuts have turned out so well, I would really consider them just about any time.

Pumpkin gets knocked or praised highly. Either way, it is just a presence surrounding the holidays. I personally love baking with it, sweet and savory. This recipe could easily become a savory bagel as well.

If fact, this originated from my 90 Second Bread Keto Baked Bagels Recipe.

Sweet cravings were hitting me hard, and that is when this all came to light. My kitchen was a hot mess from 3-4 different experiments going on in the same day!

Cupboards open, ingredients and measuring cups everywhere! I was determined to make something great. With the addition of a quick cream cheese frosting, these were exactly what I was hoping for.

This same day, I created an Easy Keto Maple Butter Recipe. So, I absolutely had to taste test with that as well. Then I added cream cheese and a few other ingredients to make a glaze also (see below the recipe card)! Oh my goodness, SO good!!

There’s one trick to making these donuts absolutely perfect.  You need a good set of donut shaped silicone baking mats.  You can use the regular size donut mold or you can use the mini size donut mold.  Each work fantastic!  It’s a must!

Sometimes you make them with a thick cream cheese frosting and other times you can make them with a creamy thin glaze!
