Pumpkin Pie Bites

 

You want to make these!

 

Ever since last week when Paige instagrammed some foodie menus with pumpkin on it…I’ve been on a pumpkin kick!  And Erin isn’t helping it any hehe!  She was talkin bout something called a pumpkin chai…ummm yea…tried it…HEART it!

 

So I had to make a pumpkin pie!

 

I scoured the internet for recipes.  I really wanted to make a beautiful homemade pumpkin pie.

 

But when I got to the store to get all the ingredients and spices…my mind exploded!

 

Did you know that ground cloves are $9.99 for a small lil’ teeny tiny bottle!!

 

ummmm, yea NO!!

 

I love to bake, but I don’t bake nearly enough to need a $10 bottle of ground cloves!

 

Plan B…

 

I spotted the Libby canned pumpkin puree, and it said * Easy * !!

 

SOLD!

 

All I had to do was add 2 eggs and some evaporated milk!

 

Woohoo!!  I felt like doing a dance in the food aisle!!

 

Here’s what you’re gonna need:

 

 

Reduced Fat Crescent Rolls

2/3 c Evaporated Milk

Libby “Easy” Pumpkin Pie Mix

2 Eggs

1/4 tsp cinnamon

1/2 brick cream cheese

Cookie Cutter

 

[ Step 1 ]

 

Mix eggs in a separate bowl

 

[ Step 2 ]

 

 

Mix eggs, and all ingredients (evap milk, pumpkin pie mix, cinammon, cream cheese) together and set aside.

 

>> I added cream cheese and cinnamon, you don’t have to if you don’t want

 

[ Step 3 ]

 

 

Roll out Crescent Roll dough and use a cookie cutter to cut out circle-ish shapes.

 

>> The dough has perforated triangles already cut in, and I didn’t want triangles.  So I mashed up the whole dough and then used a rolling pin to roll out the perforation. 

 

[ Step 4 ]

 

 

Add the pumpkin pie mix!

 

>> Don’t let the mix overflow over the sides of the dough…it won’t look pretty, trust me!

 

[ Step 5 ]

 

Following baking instructions on the can.  My oven is kinda wonky, so I baked mine at 350 degrees for 20 min.

 

Bake until dough is golden and/or center is cooked through.

 

[ Step 6 ]

 

 

Enjoy lil’ nibbles with a cup of Soy Chai!

 

Perfect Fall dessert…

 

 

going…

 

 

going…

 

 

GONE!!
