Crustless Ketovore Pumpkin Spice Pie

A Slice of Crustless Ketovore Pumpkin Spice Pie | Low-Carb, So Simple
You know my all-time favorite spice is pumpkin pie spice? I’ve been following the carnivore diet for a few years now (with the occasional sweeteners and seasonings sneaking in), and every fall I still crave something cozy and pumpkin-spiced. The problem? My stomach and fiber have never been on friendly terms.

Sure, I already have a hugely popular keto pumpkin pie recipe that I posted back in 2013, but even that one has a touch too much fiber for my rebellious digestive system. So this year, I decided to take things to the next level and make a practically fiber-free pie that still captures all those warm autumnal vibes.

After a bit of pondering, I came up with the idea for this Crustless Ketovore Pumpkin Spice Pie. No pumpkin, no flour, no crust—just heavy cream, eggs, allulose, and my beloved homemade pumpkin pie spice. Simple, silky, and warmly spiced.

Before diving in, I had one of those “what if…” moments: what if I whipped the cream and eggs separately to make the texture extra smooth? So I did—and it worked like magic. The mixture fit exactly into a 9-inch (23 cm) pie pan, baked up beautifully, and smelled like pure autumn comfort.

The hardest part? Waiting until the next day to taste it. But oh, was it worth the wait. Velvety, perfectly seasoned, and kind to my carnivore-leaning tummy, it was pure pleasure in every bite.
