It's November and for some reason, I've craved pumpkin spice dessert. I'm not a big dessert eater, but it's sounded so good. I even sent my husband to the store with a grocery list and included a pumpkin pie type desert if he could find something at least somewhat healthy and small quantity. Nothing!
So I decided to make something myself. I'm so glad the store didn't have what I was looking for! These are healthy, low sugar and no nasty toxic preservatives in them. Not only that, they are DELICIOUS and super easy to make. You are welcome!

2 cups blanched almond flour
¾ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
