Pumpkin Pie Bites

Baking is a science so that’s typically why I stay away from it.  So when I made these pumpkin pie bites and they turned out amazing, I get so excited!  Weight Watchers friendly too!  You can use graham crackers or graham cracker cookies for the base.

Instructions

  1. Heat oven to 350.

  4. Bake for 6 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes.
  5. Press the graham mixture down to create a well.

Creating any of my recipes, especially desserts, I always have a single goal in mind: to keep it light on the points, but heavy on the flavor. It’s a balancing act where every ingredient counts, but nobody’s allowed to leave the taste buds behind.

While most of my recipes are centered around Weight Watchers and making delicious foods work for the plan, I also want anyone to be able to make the recipe and enjoy it fully without thinking it only tastes good because it’s “diet food.” It’s just simply good food – regardless of being on WW or not!
