A perfect autumnal treat for cooler months! Thick cream layers between a light, fluffy pumpkin-spiced sponge cake, topped with more cream and chopped caramelized pecans. This Keto pumpkin roll looks complicated but is easy, needing simple prep steps before assembling. For best results, ensure eggs are at room temperature. Separate eggs, whisk whites with sugar to stiff peaks, adding air for a light sponge. Whisk dry ingredients and pumpkin puree with yolks, combine mixtures, spread on a baking tray, bake, then slather with thick cream and caramelized pecans. Serve with tea, coffee, or chai latte. Pumpkins, a winter squash, are technically low-carb fruit, typically containing 7g net carbs per cup, making them Keto-friendly in moderation. They're nutrient-rich, high in fiber, vitamins, minerals, and beta-carotene, a powerful antioxidant converted to vitamin A, benefiting immunity, eye health, and skin. Halloween carving pumpkins lack flavor; use sugar or pie pumpkins. Source smaller, denser pumpkins with rich orange flesh like 'Delicata,' 'Crown prince,' 'Baby Pam,' 'Autumn Gold,' or butternut squash. If short on time, use 100% canned pumpkin puree, avoiding added sugar. Steam or roast the pumpkin. To steam, peel, halve, remove seeds, dice, and steam for 20-25 minutes until tender. Puree with a masher or food processor. To roast, slice, roast at 180C/350F for 45 minutes, scrape flesh, and blend. Roast pumpkin seeds with sea salt and olive oil for a Keto snack full of protein, magnesium, copper, and zinc. Fresh pumpkin puree keeps in the fridge for 3 days, or freeze for savory dishes or Keto bakes. Pumpkin spice mix typically contains cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves; adjust to taste. Use a 10x15-inch shallow baking tray. Eggs are essential for the sponge's structure and lightness. This recipe is gluten-free and lacto-ovo vegetarian-friendly, but not vegan. Pecans complement pumpkin spice and add texture; omit or use toasted pumpkin seeds for a nut-free version. Keeps well in the fridge for 4-5 days.

These Keto, low-carb, and paleo rolls offer a perfect addition to your diet. They are fluffy, soft, and remarkably bread-like, enhanced with a yeasted flavor. Enjoy them with meats, cheeses, or almond butter. Yeast, specifically Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is Keto-friendly. It enhances flavor without affecting insulin levels by converting sugars and starches to carbon dioxide during leavening. Modifying the yeast addition process allows it to work in gluten-free and Keto bread recipes. As Keto breads lack starches, a small amount of honey feeds the yeast, which is fully converted during proofing, leaving no sugar and maintaining a low carb count. This makes the rolls suitable for both Keto and paleo diets. Store leftover rolls in a freezer bag in the freezer. For use within a couple of days, keep them in an airtight container in the fridge. This easy Keto bread is a convenient option.

For an extra kick, add sambal or Sriracha before serving. This recipe is gluten-free when using tamari soy sauce or coconut aminos as a soy substitute. Increase the fat content by adding avocado oil, more almonds, or pairing with avocado. Sherry wine can be used instead of Shaoxing wine.
