Folks, this recipe is JUST for you if you are obsessed with cookie dough, but you also are obsessed with pumpkin. Moreover, this is absolutely fantastic if you cannot consume wheat!
I wanted to create a spontaneous recipe on a whim. Not just any recipe, though–one that contains nutritional value. There’s something about knowing that when a delicious meal is also healthy for you. Even more fortunately, you can substitute one of the main ingredients for many other options? Nutritious, tasty, AND customizable? How can you not be sold?
Depending on the type of sweetener you use, this cookie dough is INSANELY low calorie.
RECIPE (serves 2 large portions or 4 full cup servings)
- 1 can of pumpkin, can substitute for 15 ounces of kabocha squash, butternut squash, sweet potato, applesauce, etc.
- 3/4 cup of coconut flour
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt

- 2 TBSP granulated monkfruit or Stevia (can also sub for more monkfruit maple syrup)

- 1/4-1/3 cup unsweetened nondairy milk
PROCEDURE
