This keto pumpkin cheesecake has a nutty almond-pecan crust. It's a yummy and rich-tasting cross between my decades-old cheesecake recipe and pumpkin pie that I converted to be low-carb. I also use low-fat cream cheese to reduce the amount of fat. It's wonderful for Thanksgiving, or just for fun anytime. Unless you tell people it's low-carb, they'll never guess!

This bacon-wrapped scallops recipe lightly marinates scallops in teriyaki, freshly grated ginger, and brown sugar sauce. They are always a huge hit at every party I go to.

Oatmeal Pie V
This pie is exactly like a pecan pie with the exception that it has oatmeal in it, rather than pecans. During baking, the oatmeal forms a chewy, "nutty" crust on top For a delicious variation, try the chocolate version. Just substitute 1/4 cup cocoa for the spices; this makes it taste very fudgy.
