Ingredients
Crust ingredients:
1 egg
1/2 cup almond flour
1 tbsp coconut flour
1/2 cup cashew butter
1/4 cup coconut sugar
2 tbsp maple syrup
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp vanilla
Pumpkin filling:
1 cup pumpkin purée
1/2 cup maple syrup
1 egg
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
2 tbsp nut butter
1 tsp vanilla
Method
- In one mixing bowl, whisk the egg and add in the crust ingredients. Mix together well
- In another mixing bowl, whisk the egg and add in the rest of the pumpkin filling ingredients
- Spray a mini cupcake pan with non stick spray (I’ve only tested as mini size)a
- Add the crust mixture to each cup, filling about 3/4 of the way. Then take your thumb and press a hole into it. If it sticks to your hand, you can spray a little non stick spray on your thumb! Or dab a little oil on your thumb.
- You want to create a hole for the pumpkin filling but leave some at the bottom and on the sides
- Then scoop in the pumpkin filling. You might have a little pumpkin filling leftover so I made crust less bites that were so good!
- Bake at 350 for 25 mins.
- Let cool completely then take a knife around the edges to remove. Makes 16-20 mini cups!
