Let’s talk about the base ingredients for this keto pumpkin smoothie!

The base of our smoothie consists of a combination of unsweetened almond milk and heavy whipping cream. This keeps our smoothie low carb while also making it incredibly rich and delicious! I like to use cold almond milk so my smoothies will be cold. You’ll want to make sure you use unsweetened almond milk. Each cup of almond milk should contain about 1 net gram of carbs. If you’d like, you could substitute coconut milk for your smoothie. Just make sure you’re using the kind found in a carton, not the kind in a can. Heavy whipping cream adds amazing richness and helps keep the carb count down as well.

What other ingredients go into this keto pumpkin smoothie?

To our unsweetened almond milk and heavy whipping cream, we add canned pumpkin. When you buy your pumpkin, just make sure you’re buying plain pumpkin, also sometimes labeled pumpkin puree. You don’t want to buy canned pumpkin pie filling as it is full of sugar and carbs. We then add keto granulated sugar to our smoothie. I used the Swerve brand as it contains zero calories and zero net carbs, and it’s delicious! For seasoning, we add a nice amount of pumpkin pie spice. Vanilla and just a pinch of salt round out the flavors of our smoothie perfectly! You can taste your smoothie and add more keto sugar if you’d like a sweeter smoothie. I like to top my smoothie with keto whipped cream, and this adds additional sweetness!

How do I make homemade keto whipped cream?

It is incredibly quick and easy to make your own homemade keto whipped cream. And once you make your own and taste how creamy and delicious it is, I doubt you’ll ever want anything else!😊When you make homemade, you can know exactly what goes into it and can be assured there are no unwanted ingredients. I suggest you chill your bowl and beaters in the freezer for 15-20 minutes before using. Then, to your chilled bowl, simply add 1 cup of heavy whipping cream, 2 tablespoons of keto powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla. You’ll then beat the mixture until stiff peaks form. This means when you remove the beaters, they form peaks which completely hold their shape. You can also easily double this recipe. If you’d like, you can even experiment with different extract flavors to make your whipping cream!
