All the deliciousness of pumpkin cheesecake without any of the guilt? Yes, please! These bars are super fluffy, creamy, and silky smooth. Like they’re so easy to make too! If you’re thinking of serving these for Thanksgiving save yourself some time by making them the day before since they’re served chilled. Then just cut ’em up when you’re ready to dig in! Cover and store them in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Ingredients:
Crust:
3 cups almond meal
1/4 cup stevia (I use truvia).
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 stick of butter
pinch of salt
Filling:
1 15oz can pumpkin puree
16oz cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon pumpkin spice
1 teaspoon maple extract (you can substitute vanilla extract if you can’t find maple extract)
1/2 cup + 1 tablespoon stevia
3 eggs, beaten
Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly mist a lasagna pan with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
2. Place the almond meal, stevia, cinnamon, and salt in a medium mixing bowl. Melt the stick of butter and mix it into the almond meal mixture. Press the mixture into the bottom of the pan into an even layer. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool while you make the filling.
3. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
4. In a large mixing bowl beat the cream cheese on medium speed for 2-3 minutes. Add the stevia, spices, and eggs and continue to beat for another minute. Add the pumpkin and mix, ensuring it’s combined thoroughly.
5. Pour the filing into over the crust and smooth out the surface. Bake in the center of the oven for 50 minutes. Center should be completely set, and edges will have just started to brown.
6. Allow to cool to room temperature then place the tray in the refrigerator until completely chilled and ready to serve. Cut into desired sized bars and enjoy!
