It’s pumpkin spice season! You know what that means – it’s almost spooky season! While I haven’t had a ton of time lately, I decided to make some delicious keto pumpkin spice donuts today and boy were they YUMMY.
These low carb donuts are based off of my ‘basic donut’ recipe. Super simple to make but for this one, I added an egg.
If you want an eggless version of donuts, try the basic ones and substitute the Greek yogurt for pumpkin! It’s so simple!
For this recipe, I used pre-mixed pumpkin pie spice. However, you can always make your own.
All you need is:
- Cinnamon
- Nutmeg
- Ginger
- Cloves
A simple pumpkin pie spice mix can be found here.
If you haven’t tried any of my other donuts out – I highly recommend trying the cinnamon roll ones! I think they are my favourite!

Would egg white protein work? I can’t have dairy.
