Made from wholesome ingredients like nuts, seeds, coconut, and eggs, these low carb Pumpkin Spice Muffins for breakfast keep me full for hours. They’re gluten-free & dairy-free deliciousness!

I am ready for Fall, and although I am not one to jump on the pumpkin bandwagon, I do have a few pumpkin recipes I’d like to share, starting with this low carb pumpkin spice muffin for breakfast. And can we talk about muffins for a minute? I love muffins. I have always loved muffins, but I’m not always a fan of low carb muffins.

Perhaps I’m easing into a mid-life crisis or just a mid-life dissatisfaction. I love the low carb, gluten-free recipes I make, but I yearn to make them a little better. And one to buck convention, I am feeling the need to do things differently than everyone else. It’s who I am. My mother always said that I had to “learn things the hard way”. And the phrase, “You can’t tell her anything,” often comes to mind these days. It’s so true.

I am in love with these healthy pumpkin spice breakfast muffins!

I worked on several batches of these pumpkin spice muffins before I was happy. The muffins are not light and fluffy but rather more substantial in texture. I think they make the perfect low carb breakfast muffin. Full of fiber, seeds and nuts, they keep me full for hours. I enjoy them warmed in the microwave and slathered in butter, and my kids have been taking them to school as snacks. Not only do they taste great, but they are a little bigger than traditional low carb muffins and look nice, too.

I will be experimenting more with oat fiber and psyllium fiber over this next year to see if I can make some texture and size improvements to some of our low carb, gluten-free staples. Let me know how you feel about using either of these ingredients in baked goods.

Okay, it’s breakfast time and I’m grabbing the last of these low carb pumpkin spice breakfast muffins!
