Instant Pot Low-Carb Pumpkin Spice Bread is forcing me to let go of summer and accept that fall is near. It is mid-September and the temperatures here in Kansas City are still pretty warm. The temps are still in the 80s and sometimes 90s. You will not hear a single complaint from me! I love everything about summer. But all good things must end and there are some pretty nice things about the fall season….hello pumpkin spice!
Oh, Instant Pot I have missed you. I have been on a huge Air Fryer kick lately. You have to take new toys out for test runs, right! I took a break and shimmied on back to the Instant Pot. I can admit, I LOVE kitchen gadgets, especially when the gadget has the potential to save me additional time.
Stay Snatched focuses on healthy recipes, but I want for the recipes to be quick, too! Because I love gadgets, be sure to check out my slow-cooker recipes as well. With cold weather looming (I am NOT looking forward to this at all), slow-cooker soups and chili recipes will definitely make it to this blog.
I am on a mission to eliminate refined sugar from my recipes. I do not use sugar often in recipes, but if when I need to I will test out a substitute. I used raw honey in this recipe.
I plan to enjoy this bread for breakfast with a cup of hot tea. It also makes a great dessert option.

Instant Pot Low-Carb Pumpkin Spice Bread
Ingredients
- 2 cups Bob's Red Mill Low-Carb Baking Mix
- 1 cup pureed pumpkin I used Libby's
- 2 tablespoons butter room temperature
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup unsweetened apple sauce
- 2 tablespoons raw honey
- 1/4 cup chopped nuts I used pecans
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
- 1/2 tsp ground ginger
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, mix honey, softened butter, unsweetened applesauce, vanilla, ground ginger, and eggs. Using a mixer or hand-mixer, beat until smooth. Scrape the sides of the bowl and ensure everything is fully mixed.
- Add the pumpkin to the wet ingredients. Fully mix.
- Add the dry ingredients to a separate bowl and stir to combine.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Beat for a short while until combined.
- Fold in the nuts.
- Grease the 7 inch pan. Add the mixture to the pan.
- Cover the top of the pan with foil to prevent water from getting into the bread.
- Add a cup of water to the pot. Place the trivet inside the pot. (This comes with the device).
- Create a foil handle to remove the pan from the Instant Pot. Fold a large piece of foil in half the long way. This will be used to wrap around the 7 inch pan to make it easier to lift out of the Instant Pot.
- Place the foil handle in the Instant Pot. Place the pan in the middle of the pot over the foil handle.
- Set the Instant Pot on manual, 50 minutes.
- After the Instant Pot alerts that 50 minutes have passed, allow the steam to settle without quick release for 10 minutes.
- Unfold the foil handle and remove it from the Instant Pot. Place the pan on a baking rack to cool. Allow it to cool to room temperature.

I tried this tonight with 2 cups of Bob's Red Mill Gluten free flour. It was not at all sweet or and very dense. I think 2 cups of flour was too much?? It was much lighter in color than the picture too.

Instant Pot breads are dense. I would bake it if you don't want that texture.

When I put this into Carb Manager I got about 20g net carbs per slice for this recipe. Are you sure all ingredients were entered correctly into MFP?

Yes. I used the branded ingredients I used in the recipe. You should always do the same and go with your calculation.

Thanks for a way to use the Bob's Baking Mix I have, as well as using my beloved IP! Can't wait to try this! Will probably use maple syrup in place of the honey (how bad could that be!?}

Want to try this ... is there a substitute for using Bob's Red Mill Low-Carb Baking Mix?

You definitely should! You can use flour.

This is great! My husband can't eat a lot of sweets/carbs and loves pumpkin.
