These Keto Sugar Free Low Carb Pumpkin Spice Donuts are gluten free, grain free, almond flour free and can be paleo as well. These are perfect for chilly fall mornings!
Keto Pumpkin Donuts
These pumpkin donuts are made grain free, gluten free, sugar free, keto and low carb! A soft, cake-like texture with a delightful depth of flavor coming from the brown sugar replacement I used and am sharing about today called Sukrin Gold.
Sugar Free Brown Sugar Sweetener
If you’ve been a long time brown sugar lover, this stuff will be your new favorite! You can use it anywhere a recipe typically class for brown sugar. Perfectly mild in sweetness and can be used one for one as a replacement for sugar.
These Sugar Free Low Carb Pumpkin Donuts are perfect naked so of course you don’t have to frost these, but what’s the fun in that? Get a little messy and make the glaze!
Sugar Free Sweeteners
Since I am a sugar free blogger I get asked often to try sugar free sweeteners on the market. I’m really selective in what I try because my family and I are eating it and they are quite picky, as am I. If you’ve followed my blog for some time you know my greatest love is towards Sweetleaf stevia. I am also fan of Swerve sweeteners and often combine them both to use them in my recipes. Swerve confectioners sweetener is very fine and that’s exactly why I chose it for the glaze on these pumpkin donuts. Since I feel it’s my duty to all of you who follow me to give you some other options in case Sweetleaf stevia or even Swerve are not your cup of tea, Sukrin USA is that option I’m sharing today. 
I really loved the caramel like flavor the Sukrin Gold brown sugar replacement provides. My hubby even loved it and for the man I can’t seem to get off brown sugar that is saying a lot! The chocolate bars were both delicious! I’ve not tried the Fiber Clear Syrup as of yet but I plan too and think it would be perfect for making sugar free beverages as it’s like a simple syrup.
You can also see the Sukrin Fiber Syrup Gold I used on these Pumpkin Pancakes! And the Sukrin Gold for sprinkles I used for my Pumpkin Pie Cupcakes!

I came across this site recently and made your Chocolate Crazy Cake for my diabetic grandmother. She ate TWO SERVINGS and her blood sugar didn’t spike at all! She loves chocolate and sweets and I am so thankful I was able to make her happy. I cannot wait to make her these pumpkin donuts. I’ve never heard of Sukrin, but I will definitely be looking into trying their brown sugar 🙂
I have not tried this yet, but it sounds promising! ☺ Thank you, Dale

Looking forward to trying all the Sukrin Gold products. Always looking for a good brown sugar replacement.
I have not had the opportunity to try the products yet. They all sound very good and would like to try them all. I am especially interested in the brown sugar one.
Will be trying these!
Looks and sounds wonderful, where can I get the sweetners?
I would really love to try your recipes, but due to the fact that they are not really sugar free but made with the sugar subs my diabetes can not deal with it. Good Luck
These sugar free substitutes do not effect blood glucose and are sugar free.
I don’t have any liquid stevia now. Until I go to the store, what substitue sugar can I use. I had been using Splenda but stopped that!! and use Pyure now. Much better for me. Thanks for anyone’s suggestions.
You can use Pyure just maybe 1/3 cup.
I ordered the Sukrin Gold and it came today. It’s very sparkly and lovely looking. I was anxious to try this recipe, so these are cooking right now. After 15 minutes though, they look nowhere near done. The icing was dry – ended up putting in more milk. Found it SUPER sweet – next time I’ll do less of the Swerve confectioners. Fingers crossed the donuts come out ok. I’ve been excited about this recipe since seeing it a week ago. Ingredients and recipes like this are new for me and I feel like there’s a huge learning curve.
Made these this morning–very pleased! They were a little on the sweet side, but had excellent texture for something low carb. I do not have a donut pan, but it made 12 muffins. Baked for 20 min. Came out very nice!
I just made these and they are moist and delicious! I forgot to spray my pans though so they stuck. The glaze is yummy too, but i wonder if adding a little butter would help dry out the frosting?
I would like to try this recipe. I liked that someone used a muffin pan and cooked them for 12 minutes because I do not have a donut pan. I do have a question: After cooking, how long should the donuts/muffins sit in the pan before taking them out to finish cooling them on a rack. Thank you.
I don’t have a doughnut pan, can I use something else?
You can use a muffin pan and turn them into muffins instead.
Wow, really, I can’t get over that delicious taste! So simple and yet – sooo great. Thank you for this recipe – it’s a real keeper
That is an amazing looking recipe and the pics makes it look so good. I will try it this coming weekend when the whole family is at home.
Oh my goodness! These are DELICIOUS!!!!
Omgee! I Used oat fiber instead of coconut flour and used1/3 cup pumpkin instead of 1/2 cup also added maple flavoring. Awesomeness! Really don’t even need a glaze I just slathered it in butter. Thank you!
I made these over the weekend with some minor adjustments and they were wonderful! I did not have vanilla stevia so I used regular. I used brown sugar splenda and almond milk instead of coconut. I am gluten free with an interest in cutting back on carbs and sugar. I also love to try new recipes and this one I would make again!
Do I need to bake longer if using a silicone donut mold? They still seem pretty soft. Thank you for the amazing recipe! I had everything in my pantry!
Yes I would. Probably need an additional 10 minutes.
Sadly, Sukrin Gold isn’t gluten-free. I’ve heard talk of a “brown-sugar” Swerve but haven’t seen it yet. Still making these today, just adding a TINY bit of molasses to make up for that warm, lovely, brown-sugar flavor.
Hi,
I LOVE all your recipes! The coconut flour bread is so delicious…..but I have a question. I don’t have liquid Stevia.
Can I use granulated or powdered Swerve? If so same amount?
Thank you so much for your recipes. Being diabetic, they’ve been a lifesaver.?
Swerve isn’t as sweet as using stevia so you’d have to use a lot more of it. But powdered would still work well in this recipe.
Made them & loved them! Thank you for the recipe! I added walnuts to a couple of them & Lily’s dark chocolate. Fantastic!
Just made the pumpkin spice donuts for my hubby…was wondering, my batter wasn’t pourable and the recipe did at to pour into molds-is my batter too thick? And what do I use to thin it oil or milk, water or am I still ok? First time baking w/coconut flour. The batter tastes delightful!? So hope they turn out ok!
Brenda, I made the sugar free low carb pumpkin donuts last year. They were delicious. I tried making them this year and ran into a problem. I could not remember how long to keep donuts in pan before removing them to racks for cooling. I made two batches and tried cooling them for different times in pan but they still stuck. Please advise.
Can I use butter instead of olive oil? And can I se almond milk instead of coconut milk?
yes those swaps would be fine
Really enjoyed making these. Flavor was super yummy. My only issue was getting them out of my donut pan so looks like I will need to get a new one :-). Will definitely make this again!
I have a question about the sugar free recipes. I am not allowed to use any of the sugar free products due to a condition that causes problems from them, so my question is if I can substitute equal amounts of regular sweeteners in place if them and still use the recipes? They look so good and I do have to do gluten and dairy free recipes. I sure wish Ibcould do a dairy free way of doing your dough for the pizzas, etc. but it has so much mozzarella in it. It looks so good and would be great for gluten free. Thanks so much. Your recipes are great. I just need to change the sweeteners.
