Since going Paleo my family has fallen even more in love with our grill. Paleo and grilling just work well together. The past couple of years I've even been stepping outside my grilling comfort zone more and more. Grilling things I'd never thought to have grilled before and trying new flavor combinations. I have to say I'm pretty thrilled with the results of most of my flavor experiments. In the past I'd never have thought to grill fruit, but it's amazing. Grilling fruit and adding it to traditionally savory dishes? Brilliant. Oh yes, and? New rule: every burger recipe for the rest of forever must contain grilled pineapple. OK, maybe more of a guideline. It's a seriously delicious combination though. This Smoky Grilled Pineapple Burger is always a crowd-pleaser at my house. It's not only Paleo, but Whole30, glutenfree, lower carb, and clean eating friendly. I promise you won't miss the bun! paleo, grilled pineapple burger, smoky
It's that time of year again. Pumpkin-time that is! Yes, yes, I want all. Things. Pumpkin. Right now. Pumpkin bread, pumpkin muffins, pumpkin spiced everyyyyythingggg.
Sorry, not sorry.
However, I'm currently doing pretty strict Keto Paleo (more on that in another post). So no PSL's for me. Dangit.
Unless....
Paleo Pumpkin Spice Coffee Creamer
Ingredients
1 can Organic Classic Coconut Milk - If you do dairy you can use 2 cups of Heavy Whipping Cream here instead.1 Tablespoon Organic Pumpkin (YES, it has real pumpkin it it. Seriously, they all should...)
2 teaspoons Organic Cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon Organic Nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon Organic Cloves
1/8 teaspoon Organic Ginger
2 Tablespoons Grade B Organic Maple Syrup (completely optional- leave out for a sweetener-free, strict Paleo, 21 Day Sugar Detox, KETO, low carb, and Whole30 friendly coffee creamer. Or swap for Truvia or Monk Fruit.)
Directions
Add all ingredients into your blender and blend well (about a minute). Store in your refrigerator.
Add (to taste) to your coffee or try with espresso for a
Keto Paleo Pumpkin Spice Latte!
Options
- As I mentioned above, leave out the maple syrup to make this more low carb and keto friendly. If you desire more sweetness you can add a low carb friendly sweetener to each cup of coffee as you make it or swap equivalent amounts in entire recipe.
- If you don't like coconut milk and prefer dairy you can replace it with half and half or even heavy whipping cream (just stir it instead of putting it in your blender or you'll have pumpkin spice whipped cream!) instead.
- To keto this up a notch, add MCT Powder to each cup.
- To lighten this up try using almond or cashew milk instead of the canned coconut milk and replace the maple syrup with stevia.
Enjoy! Let me know if you try it.
