Animal-Based Pumpkin Cheesecake Bars

Course Dessert
Prep Time 15 minutes
Servings 6

Ingredients

  • 4 each quality whole eggs
  • 1 stick grass-fed butter, cut up into tbsp pieces (4 ounces)
  • 2 Tbsp raw honey or sweetener of choice
  • 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened pumpkin puree
  • 1 Tbsp unflavored grass fed gelatin
  • 4 ounces farmers cheese

Instructions

  1. In a saucepan over low-medium heat, whisk the eggs and keep whisking until bubbles form (if you can’t keep whisking turn off the stove till you can to prevent scrambled eggs), whisk this mixture for a couple minutes.

  2. As you whisk, drop in 1 tbsp of butter at a time and whisk until the whole stick is added and melted in. Add in the honey, pumpkin pie spice, and pumpkin puree until well mixed.

  3. Sprinkle gelatin in and whisk yet again to dissolve.

  4. Continue to whisk until everything is mixed (it will thicken more in the fridge).

  5. Remove from heat and add in farmers cheese and mix until incorporated.

  6. If you like at this point you can add the mixture to a food processor or blender so it is smooth.

  7. Line a 9x5 bread pan with parchment and pour the mixture evenly.

  8. Set in the fridge for a few hours or overnight, cut into bars and enjoy!

  9. Store leftovers covered in the fridge for 5 days or so.

Recipe Notes

This would also be perfect in a crust. Or use 2 tsp of gelatin for a custard consistency.
