Grain-Free Pumpkin Pie Bars

These Pumpkin Pie Bars are a wonderful, healthy dessert to make for any occasion.  A grain-free version that is full of favorite pumpkin pie spices.

It’s not pumpkin season, yet I find myself craving pumpkin. Pumpkin pie even! Is it even acceptable to bake anything pumpkin in April? I sure hope so cause I just did.

I set out to find something yummy to make that this weekend was sugar free and came upon this recipe for pumpkin pie bars. It’s like eating the filling of pumpkin pie!

Pumpkin Pie Bars

I have always loved these Pumpkin Pecan Bars and these Healthy Pumpkin Cheesecake Bars but need to make something a little different this time.

I am in the process of having some tests done on my gut. Not to go into TMI, but the bloat has been over the top for way too long and it was time to do some investigating.

The only result I have so far is that I do have yeast overgrowth in my gut. I haven’t had my followup appointment to get all the deets, but I know there will be a change is my food choices from what I have been reading. One of the main components (of many) is eliminating sugar and sweeteners of all kinds for several weeks, so here goes.

I did make these with no sweetener this time but you can certainly add some if your’d like. When baking these for others, I would definitely add one of the optional sweeteners.

It’s nice to have another little snack that is super healthy in my arsenal!
