For all you baking enthusiasts ... my girl found a recipe she's hoping to try this weekend - thought I'd share with everyone.

Pumpkin Cheesecake Protein Bars

For the Cheesecake
•2 cups non-fat greek yogurt
•1 cup pumpkin puree (I used canned pumpkin)
•2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
•2 eggs
•2 Tbsp gluten free flour (or if not gluten free use all purpose)
•½ cup stevia for baking (or I used 12 packets of NuNaturals) *use whatever sweetener you prefer & taste for sweetness and add more if needed

For the Crust
•¾ cup crumbs from gluten-free gingersnap cookies (I used 3 of these PatsyPie Snappy Ginger Cookies) *could also use graham cracker crumbs
•½ cup whey protein, vanilla (I used Whey Gourmet, vanilla) *or sub for extra cookie crumbs if preferred
•3 Tbsp ground flax seed (or whole chia seeds)
•5 Tbsp butter (or coconut oil), melted
•30 drops stevia (I used NuNaturals vanilla stevia drops) *optional

Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 300 degrees F.
2. In a medium bowl (or stand mixer with paddle attachment), whisk the eggs, add in the greek yogurt, pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice and whisk until smooth. Then, add in the stevia and flour a little at a time, whisking after each addition.
3. Once the cheesecake filling is whisked until smooth, set aside
4. Next, start the base. Mist or lightly oil an 8x8 pan.
5. In a bowl, mix together the cookie crumbs, flax, whey protein and liquid stevia (if using).
6. Once dry ingredients combined, drizzle in the melted butter and stir until its all combined.
7. Press the graham crumb mixture evenly into the bottom of the 8x8 square pan. Ensure you pack it down firmly.
8. Then pour over the cheesecake filling and spread it around so its even.
9. Place in the oven and bake for approx. 45-50 minutes
10. Allow to cool completely, then place in fridge for 2 hours.

I'm intrigued.

Oh shoot, thanks for sharing this!!!

I'm gonna try this out!!!

[JETSbrah]

Bump this to the top everybody - start of the week for me after a big Thanksgiving yesterday!

For anyone wanting to try those cheesecake bars, I highly *highly* recommend that recipe ... my experience with protein baking is limited, but that's by far the best recipe I've tried to date. I used graham cracker crumbs instead of the ginger snaps but I stuck with ground chia seeds (had them already) to mix in and the crust turned out unreal. Only regret is that we brought the entire batch minus the one I tried to Thanksgiving and they were demolished by my fam. Might have to whip up another batch this weekend. Might just be my tastebuds but I didn't feel the need for as much sweetener as the recipe suggested either. Start small - taste until it fits what you like!

Pumpkin Torte Recipe

Ingredients
1 package yellow cake mix (regular size)
1 can (15 ounces) solid-pack pumpkin, divided
1/2 cup milk
4 large eggs
1/3 cup canola oil
1-1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice, divided
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 carton (16 ounces) frozen whipped topping, thawed
1/4 cup caramel ice cream topping
1/3 cup chopped pecans, toasted

Directions
In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, 1 cup pumpkin, milk, eggs, oil and 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice; beat on low speed for 30 seconds.

Beat on medium for 2 minutes. Pour into two greased and floured 9-in. round baking pans.

Bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely.

In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until light and fluffy. Add the confectioners' sugar and remaining pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice; beat until smooth. Fold in whipped topping.

Cut each cake horizontally into two layers. Place bottom layer on a serving plate; spread with a fourth of the filling. Repeat layers three times. Drizzle with caramel topping; sprinkle with pecans. Store in the refrigerator. Yield: 10-12 servings.

^^ that recipe looks interesting. Very interesting.

[from_scratch]

My wife makes pumpkin bars every year and they taste amazing!

PUMPKIN BARS

CRUST:
1 C. Pecans
¼ C. Almond Flour
¼ C. Shredded Coconut
8 Dates
¼ t. Ground Ginger
½ t. Ground Cinnamon
1 t. Molasses
2 T. Coconut Oil

FILLING:
1 ½ C. Pumpkin Puree
12 Dates
½ C. Coconut Oil
½ C. Coconut Milk
1 ½ t. Vanilla
1 ½ T. Honey
¼ t. Allspice
1 t. Pumpkin Pie Spice

TOPPING
1 Can Coconut Milk,
½ T. Honey
Ground Cinnamon

Instructions

FOR THE CRUST:
1.Line an 8x8 baking dish with tin foil or plastic wrap.
2. Add the pecans, almond flour, and shredded coconut to bowl of a food processor. Process until the pecans resemble small, coarse crumbs.
3. Add the dates, ginger, cinnamon, molasses, and coconut oil to the nut mixture and process until the dates are chopped fine enough to hold the crust together. Scoop the dough into the prepared pan and press evenly over the bottom.

FOR THE FILLING:
1. Add all ingredients to a high speed blender or food processor. Blend together until very smooth. This shouldn’t be too hard in a high speed blender(I use a vitamix), but you may need to puree for a bit longer in a regular food processor. The mixture should have no lumps and be a smooth, fluffy consistency.
2. Spoon the mixture over the crust and smooth the top. Cover and refrigerate for 3-4 hours, or overnight.
3. Once chilled, you should be able to lift the bars(carefully out of the pan by lifting them by the tin foil or plastic wrap and sliding onto the counter.
4. Cut into bars. Top each bar with a dollop of coconut cream topping and a dash of cinnamon.

FOR THE WHIPPED CREAM TOPPING:
1. Place the coconut cream and the honey in a mixing bowl. Beat together with an electric mixer until combined.
2. Spoon a dollop of cream over each pumpkin bar. Dust each bar with a dash of cinnamon. Serve chilled.
