    do you add the milk to the pudding? or is it just the dry pudding mix with the pumpkin and cool whip?

    So I recently have been experimenting with Pumpkin Lattes and tried many failed recipes, including the one on Hungry Girl. None seemed as good as 7-eleven's that I have every year.

    Tonight I realized that it was way more simple than adding real pumpkin, pumpkin spice, cinnamon etc. The 15 mins prep time isn't necessary.



    EASY LOW CAL PUMPKIN SPICE LATTE:

    Nescafe' - Taster's Choice Hazelnut Single Serve Packets, 1 packet
    Coffee Mate Liquid Creamer - Pumpkin Spice , 1.5 Tbsp
    Stevia - Extract In the Raw, 0.5 packet

    Heat up your water and add in the coffee (like regular instant coffee). Proceed to mix in the creamer and stevia and it's delicious! Seriously SO good that it even beats my usual 7-eleven one. I found the coffee mate creamer at Walmart. Sadly it's seasonal. :/

    A lady at work brought this in for Thanksgiving one year and I hounded her for two weeks until she gave me the recipe.

    Pumpkin Crumble

    http://www.myfitnesspal.com/recipe/edit/8515890

    (in case that link doesn't work)

    1 can (15 oz.) pumpkin
    1 can (12oz) evaporated milk (lowfat is cool)
    1 c. sugar
    2 eggs
    4 tsp. allspice or pumpkin pie spice
    4 tsp. cinnamon
    1 pkg. yellow cake mix
    1 c. melted butter
    1/2 c. chopped pecans or more if you like, cover the top

    Combine pumpkin, milk, sugar, eggs, spices; mix well.
    Pour into greased 9"x13" cake pan.
    Sprinkle with dry cake mix.
    Sprinkle with pecans.
    Drizzle melted butter throughout top along with a little cinnamon.
    Bake at 350 degrees for 40-50 minutes or until golden brown or if a knife comes out clean it's done.

    Whipped cream would be a great addition.


    I had to promise I'd never make it for work but I can let you all in on it.
    Those protein bars look pretty tasty too. Thanks!

    This sounds really promising. Thanks for giving up her secret! :)

    Do you know how many calories it was

    Only-500-Calories-for-the-WHOLE-loaf.jpg

    Only 500 Calories for the WHOLE loaf
    Batter:
    1-1/2 c. pureed pumpkin
    1/2 c. unsweetened applesauce
    1 whole egg
    3 egg whites
    1 c. all-purpose flour
    2/3 c. whole wheat flour
    1/2 c. Stevia Cup For Cup sweetener
    1/2 c. granulated sugar
    1 t. baking soda
    1/2 t. ground cinnamon
    1/2 t. ground nutmeg
    Cream filling
    8 oz. reduced fat cream cheese
    1/4 c. granulated sugar
    1 T. all-purpose flour
    2 egg whites
    1 t. vanilla extract
    1. For the Batter: With an electric mixer, beat the pumpkin, applesauce, egg, and egg whites on medium speed until smooth. In a separate bowl, combine the flours, Stevia, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon and nutmeg. Slowly mix the flour mixture into the pumpkin mixture.
    2. For the cream cheese filling: Beat the cream cheese, sugar, vanilla, egg whites and flour until creamy and smooth.
    3. Grease 2 8x4x2″ loaf pans. Divide half of the batter between the two pans. Pour half of the filling in one pan and the other half in the second pan and smooth with the back of a spoon. Top with the remaining batter.
    4. Bake in a 350 degree oven for about 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Don’t overbake or your bread will be dry on the edges. Cool and remove from pans. Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container.
    One serving (2 slices) = about 100 calories

    **** It was brought to my attention that the calorie calculations are not correct on this recipe. I just saw it on pinterest and thought I'd share! Sounded too good to be true. Sorry pals.****
