Using a mixing bowl, add the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, sweetener and eggs to the cheese mixture.
Then mix until well combined. Next, melt the butter then grease the sides and bottom of a square baking pan. Press 2/3 of the dough into the bottom and up the slightly up the sides of your pan. (only an inch or two up) Then, in a small bowl mix the pumpkin with whipping cream, sweetener and cinnamon. Mix until well combined. Then spread the pumpkin mixture evenly over the dough. Break the remaining fathead dough into small bits and sprinkle it over the pumpkin. Mix 1/2 Tsp of cinnamon with 1 Tbsp of sweetener. Then sprinkle it on top of the bars. Bake 20 -25 minutes.
WHAT IS THE KETOGENIC DIET?

It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, and replacing it with fat. When in ketosis, your body switches to burning fat for its primary fuel source.
On Keto, you’re supposed to get at least 70 percent of your calories from Fat, 15 to 25 percent from Protein, and 10 percent from Carbohydrates. You should avoid all grains, legumes, root vegetables, fruit, (except berries) and sugar.
