Finally fall ... sugarfree vegan pumpkin bites




All the leaves are turning red and orange and yellow, I'm fishing out my cosy sweaters and enjoy Pumpkin Spice Latte at Starbucks.
It’s officially and finally fall.

That’s why I wanna do something with pumpkin so badly. But… always do cupcakes; that’s too easy (Bad excuse here…I’m just waiting for Halloween!).
I decided to something easy and handy for teatime in the afternoon.

Here are the … sugarfree, vegan pumpkin bites.


How to do these yummy little treats? Continue reading…

First of all we have to make pie crust.
Knead together 150g of flour, 75g of vegan butter, one tablespoon of xylit and one teaspoon of cinnamon. As soon as it comes to a ball put it into the fridge and let it sit for about half an hour.
Meanwhile we can prepare the filling.
Cut about 250g of pumpkin in slices and put the on a lined baking tray. Grill them for about half an hour at 250°C until they’re soft and “creamy”. Don’t forget to flip your slices sometimes! Then peel your pumpkin and blend it together with a cup of chestnuts and one tablespoon of xylit. Add a teaspoon of pumpkin spice and a few drops of vanilla extract.


Roll out the pie crust, take a round cookie cutter and cut out some circles. Place one teaspoon of your pumpkin filling onto one circle and cover it with another. Slightly press down the edges and use a fork to seal your bites. Then take your cookie cutter once again and beautify the edges and the circle.


Put all of them on a lined baking tray and bake them for about 15-20 minutes at 200°C.
As soon as the edges get slightly brown you can remove them from the oven and let them chill on a plate.


 Serve to a good cup of tea or coffee.

Enjoy fall time
