These Skinny Pumpkin Cheesecake Bites are both cute and delicious. Seriously SO good! If you try any of my recipes, let this be the one because they’re that amazing.
Ever since I started making all these holiday treats, I’ve had tons of leftovers that I’m not sure what to do with. If anything, these are the perfect leftovers. You can easily pack them as a perfect little dessert at lunch or grab one after dinner. I love anything bite size I can just grab and eat. When you have a traditional pumpkin cheesecake or pie, you have to dirty a plate, fork and knife. So, if you’re like me and don’t enjoy doing dishes, this is for you.
They would especially be perfect for a covid safe Friendsgiving.
Friendsgiving is so much fun. If you don’t already know, Friendsgiving is a combination of friends and Thanksgiving. It’s tons of fun to get your friends together and spend some quality time during the holidays. Especially paired with a cocktail or 2... or 3? Possibly 4-5.
Tips for planning Friendsgiving:
1. Make it potluck style! That way you can bring along these cheesecake bites as your dish.
2. Get some cute decor - tall candles, candle holder, some fresh flowers, placemats and games!
3. Do NOT forget the drinks. Try my Apple Cider Moscow Mule for this one.
4. Get to-go containers for people to take home leftovers.
5. Have an appetizer ready for when guests arrive.
6. Go around the table and say what you’re grateful for.
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
Line your muffin tins with parchment paper cupcake liners.
In a large bowl, mix together the almond flour and monk fruit.
Slowly combine the melted butter and water. The crust should be dry and crumbly. Just keep mixing, pressing and stirring until desired consistency.
Press the crust into each muffin tin.
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until lightly golden brown. (Add fillings only after pre-baking).
In a large mixing bowl, mix your cream cheese with a hand mixer for a 1-2 minutes.
Add in your greek yogurt, pumpkin puree, pumpkin spice and vanilla. Blend again till smooth.
Next, add your egg into the mixture. Make sure not to over mix.
Once your mini pie crusts are out of the oven, and cooled, fill each cupcake liner about 3/4 or almost full. Repeat until all cupcake liners are filled with your pumpkin cheesecake filling.
Bake in the oven for 17-20 minutes.
Let your cheesecakes cool for 30 minutes on the counter. Then, put them in an airtight container and store them in your fridge.
Serve with cool whip or pumpkin whipped cream on top.
