Love the yummy combination of chocolate and pumpkin together?
Attention, cookie lovers! You can bake delicious keto pumpkin chocolate chip cookies that taste AMAZING! These cookies are gooey, soft, and guilt-free! Plus, they happen to be easy to make and something to add to your fall baking list of goodies.
If you’re craving chocolate, these addicting cookies will do the trick!
For this recipe, we are adding pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie spice to our keto chocolate chip cookies.
Keto cookie ingredients are key!
You’ll for sure need to use sugar-free chocolate chips, and we recommend Lily’s Chocolate chips which are sweetened with stevia. They are so YUM!
You’ll also need some almond flour as a replacement for traditional flour, and also a sweetener. I like to use Swerve granular when baking cookies, but you can sub in your favorite sweetener. Visit our Keto Sweetener Conversion Guide for how to substitute with different sweeteners.

Hi there! Be sure to check out our Sweetener Conversion Guide! https://hip2keto.com/best-sweeteners-diets-conversion-recipe/ Hope that helps!
Instead of using all almond flour can you use almond and coconut flour?
Yes I’m sure you can however I have not yet tried. Looks like a good ratio from other recipes would be 1:4 on coconut flour to almond flour when mixing, according to similar recipes online.
Just made these…so yummy!! The sprinkled salt on top makes them even tastier! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
Oh good! You’re very welcome! Super happy you enjoyed them, Danene!
Followed the directions exactly & measured correctly, but these cookies did not turn out well. The dough was very soft, not stiff like cookie dough usually feels. The cookies didn’t seem to cook so I had to leave them in the oven longer (almost double the time listed) and as they began to get too brown around the edges, they still looked uncooked in the middle! Eventually, after they cooled, they tasted OK but they were much flatter than pictured. Not sure if I will make these again.
Did you measure the pumpkin puree in a dry measuring cup or liquid?
I had the same problem. They taste good, but are flat and mushy.
Hmm, maybe try adjusting your cooking time and / or use a liquid measuring cup for the puree. Hoping that might help!

Super easy! Super yummy!
Yay! SO glad to hear that, Casey! Thanks for letting us know how they turned out!
Do you have to use xanthan gum? I dont have any but would love to try these.
I would think they’d be similar without – maybe slightly diff attire though. 👍
Where do you find the xanthan gum? (I’m not a “cook”) 🙂
It’s usually by the specialty flours in the baking isle. also online. But most stores are carrying it now. 😮
Thanks! 😁
Did you measure the pumpkin puree in a dry measuring cup or liquid?
I used a dry measuring cup. Hope that helps.
Pumpkin chocolate chip cookies are amazing!! Have tried many keto cookies, some are meh, some are horrible. These are delicious- you can’t even tell they are keto. Soft, delicious, easy to make. Will add them to my regular recipe collection!
Wow I’m so glad you loved them ❤️
