The holiday season is almost here, and in just a few weeks we will be looking for the best keto Thanksgiving recipes. Sticking to a diet during holidays can be challenging because there is temptation all over. With all the good food being passed around family gatherings the temptations are very high.
It’s really hard to say no to family and friends when they bring their desserts and salads and insist you have to try them. No one wants to offend great aunt by not having a bite of their delicious sauce right?
Thanksgiving is one of the most wonderful holidays which brings family and friends together to enjoy a meal and create wonderful memories. How about you give them a wide variety of keto Thanksgiving food to choose from? These Thanksgiving recipes are so delicious and most of them taste like the real ones. If you don’t tell your non-keto family and friends, most won’t know the difference. Even the picky eaters will enjoy them.
From savory side dishes to main dishes, appetizers, sauces, soups, and desserts there is so much to choose from. Just because it’s Thanksgiving, it doesn’t mean you have to fall off the wagon. You can still enjoy the delicious comfort food in the low-carb version.

Keto Low-Carb Pumpkin Pie
This is going to be the best sugar-free pumpkin pie you have ever had on Thanksgiving. The best part is that it tastes like the real thing so the whole family will enjoy it. The keto pumpkin pie filling has only five ingredients which makes it very easy to make.
To make sure the crust isn’t soggy when adding your filling make sure you bake it first and also cover the crust edges with a foil to prevent them from burning. Make sure you don’t overbake it as that causes cracks and affects the texture. Each serving has 4g net carbs. Full recipe
