Ingredients

  • 8 Zero Carb Street Taco Sized Tortillas
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 tbsp Butter
  • 2 tbsp Swerve Granulated Sugar Substitute
  • 1 tsp Cinnamon
  • 8 ounces Cream Cheese (softened)
  • 1/3 cup Pumpkin Puree
  • 1/2 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice
  • 1/4 cup Swerve Confectioner’s Sugar Substitute
  • 1/3 cup Chopped Pecans

Directions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, Swerve granulated sugar substitute, and chopped pecans. Mix until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  2. Take a tortilla and spread a generous amount of the pumpkin cream cheese filling along the center. Be careful not to overfill, as you’ll need to roll them up tightly.
  3. Once filled, carefully roll the tortilla from one end to the other, ensuring the filling stays inside. Place the rolled tortilla seam side down on a plate.
  4. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the rolled tortillas seam side down. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
  5. While the tortillas are cooking, melt the butter in a small bowl. Once the tortillas are done, brush the melted butter on the outside of each roll-up.
  6. On a plate, combine the Swerve granulated sugar substitute and cinnamon. Roll each tortilla in this mixture to coat the outside, adding a sweet and spicy finish.
  7. Serve warm and enjoy your Keto Pumpkin Pecan Cream Cheese Roll-Ups!

Storage and Shelf Life

These Keto Pumpkin Pecan Cream Cheese Roll-Ups are best enjoyed fresh, but you can store leftovers for later enjoyment. Here’s how:

  • Refrigeration: Place any leftover roll-ups in an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator. They will last for up to 3 days.
  • Freezing: If you want to make a larger batch, you can freeze the roll-ups before cooking. Wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer-safe bag. They can be frozen for up to 2 months. When ready to eat, thaw in the refrigerator overnight and cook as directed.

FAQs

  1. Can I use regular sugar instead of Swerve? Yes, but it will increase the carb count and may not be suitable for a keto diet.

  5. How can I make these roll-ups spicier? Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or some chopped jalapeños to the filling for a spicy kick.
  6. Can I make these ahead of time? Yes, you can prepare the filling and fill the tortillas ahead of time, then cook them just before serving.
  7. What’s the best way to reheat them? Reheat in a skillet over low heat to maintain their crispiness.
  8. Can I use pumpkin pie filling instead of pumpkin puree? Yes, but be aware that it may contain added sugars and spices.
