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!

September 28, 2015 at 11:16 amI 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 🙂

Laura Yoder says
October 3, 2015 at 2:08 pmLooks and sounds wonderful, where can I get the sweetners?
Ann says
October 30, 2015 at 1:39 pmI 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
Brenda says
October 31, 2015 at 8:05 amThese sugar free substitutes do not effect blood glucose and are sugar free.
Carol says
October 9, 2016 at 11:20 amI 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.
Brenda says
October 9, 2016 at 1:28 pmYou can use Pyure just maybe 1/3 cup.
Nancy says
November 18, 2016 at 9:01 pmI 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.
Chelsey says
September 7, 2017 at 10:28 amMade 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!
Pam Turner says
August 19, 2018 at 3:23 pmI 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?
Theresa says
September 10, 2018 at 2:15 pmI 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.
arlene says
September 12, 2018 at 12:52 pmI don’t have a doughnut pan, can I use something else?
Brenda says
September 12, 2018 at 3:54 pmYou can use a muffin pan and turn them into muffins instead.
Alka Talwar says
September 15, 2018 at 2:52 amWow, 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
online cake delivery in Noida says
September 16, 2018 at 8:15 amThat 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.
Cassie Lee says
September 17, 2018 at 7:39 pmOh my goodness! These are DELICIOUS!!!!
Sara says
September 22, 2018 at 6:04 pmOmgee! 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!
Joanne says
September 24, 2018 at 7:13 amI 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!
Mindy says
September 27, 2018 at 5:30 pmDo 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!
Brenda says
September 28, 2018 at 12:43 pmYes I would. Probably need an additional 10 minutes.
Rachel says
October 4, 2018 at 11:06 amSadly, 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.
Cara says
October 10, 2018 at 12:32 pmHi,
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.💕
Brenda says
October 10, 2018 at 1:42 pmSwerve 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.
Vicky says
November 3, 2018 at 6:47 pmMade them & loved them! Thank you for the recipe! I added walnuts to a couple of them & Lily’s dark chocolate. Fantastic!
