Ingredients

• 2 cups almond flour
• 1/4 cup erythritol or preferred sweetener
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups ricotta cheese
• 1 cup pumpkin puree
• 3 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon pumpkin spice
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/4 cup powdered erythritol for filling
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract for filling
• 1/2 cup mini sugar-free chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8 inch baking dish with parchment paper.
2. Make the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, erythritol, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix until crumbly. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
3. Bake the Crust: Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly.
4. Prepare the Filling: In a large bowl, combine ricotta cheese, pumpkin puree, eggs, pumpkin spice, cinnamon, and powdered erythritol. Mix until smooth and well combined. If desired, fold in mini chocolate chips.
5. Assemble the Bars: Pour the filling over the cooled crust and spread it evenly. Smooth the top with a spatula.
6. Bake the Bars: Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes, or until the filling is set and slightly firm to the touch.
7. Cool and Slice: Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan. Once cooled, lift them out using the parchment paper and slice into squares. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
