Low-Cal Pumpkin Pudding

At our house, we love everything pumpkin – from pumpkin bread, muffins and pancakes to pumpkin souffle, pumpkin pie, and even pumpkin spice tea…In fact, we love pumpkin so much, that I keep a large stash of organic pumpkin in our pantry to serve up pumpkin delights all year long. This recipe was born out of a desire to have a healthy and low-cal version of our favorite pumpkin desserts and cakes without sacrificing the taste! Enjoy! (NOTE: To make this recipe VEGAN, skip the honey!! You can use 1-2 packets of organic Stevia if you wish!).
