Perfect for Thanksgiving!
I love the smells of Fall! The leaves piled on the ground, wood smoke rising above the chimneys, warm wool coats and scarves, gently roasting squash or apples and the amazing combination of Fall spices that hit your nose the minute you walk through the door. Our Spiced Pumpkin Pudding Cups make a wonderful Fall dessert, perfect for any of your holiday company or just a special treat for you!

1 Tbsp plus 2 tsps Honey
20 drops Liquid Stevia
2 Tbsp Arrowroot starch
1 Tbsp Ground Cinnamon

2. Lightly grease 4 small (3½ – inch diameter) ramekins with coconut oil.
3. In a large bowl, whisk together all ingredients, except walnuts, until smooth.
4. Divide the batter evenly between the 4 oiled ramekins.
5. Place on a baking sheet.
6. Bake for about 25-30 minutes until slightly puffed and just firm to the touch around the edges. (It’s okay if the centers still jiggle a bit)
