I created a free resource library to help you advance your nutrition & fitness, lose weight, decrease stress, maximize your motivation, feel fabulous, & much more!
Due to the magical combination of almond butter, mashed pumpkin, & honey, and the fact that they’re completely flourless, these Almond Butter Pumpkin Pie Brownies boast the most IRRESISTIBLE moist & gooey texture!
I recently whipped up a couple batches of these Fall-inspired brownies for one of our Patient Appreciation Days at our health center, and lemme tell ya — people went GA-GA over these babies! 😍
Even people who aren’t huge fans of pumpkin pie or pumpkin-flavored foods (yes, apparently there ARE a few people like that in this world 🙃) enjoyed them — because this dessert has a perfectly subtle (rather than overpowering) level of pumpkin flavor.

Ingredients:
**Makes one 8×8 pan of brownies. You could double the recipe to make a 9×13 pan.**
- 1 cup raw almond butter
- 1 cup organic canned pumpkin
- 1 organic, free range egg
- 1/3 cup organic, raw honey*
- 1 tsp. baking soda (aluminum free)
- Optional: Pumpkin Pie Spice, cinnamon, and/or nutmeg to taste**
- Organic virgin coconut oil or organic grass-fed butter to grease the pan
*If you want to make this recipe sugar-free, you could use erythritol, non-GMO xylitol, and/or stevia for the sweetener (instead of the organic, raw honey). BUT, it would probably change the texture & consistency somewhat. I’ve never tried any other variation, so let me know how it turns out if you try it! 🙂
**The pumpkin pie spices are optional — we’ve typically made this recipe WITHOUT any spices at all, and people love it. BUT, since these brownies have such a subtle flavor, I think adding some of those Fall-inspired spices (to your personal taste preference) is a fantastic idea!
Directions:
- Add all ingredients into a bowl.
- Mix well with a large spoon until mixture is smooth & fully combined.
- Pour into a greased 8×8 pan (or into a greased 9×13 pan if you’re making a double batch).
- Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes, or until a fork inserted comes out clean. (I always err on the side of less time, because I love them as moist & gooey as possible! 😋)
- Enjoy!! They’re delicious fresh out of the oven (after they’ve cooled down a bit), or after being in the fridge for a while.
For an even more delectable dessert, I highly recommend topping these Almond Butter Pumpkin Pie Brownies with Cream Cheese Frosting — soooo incredible! 😍

LOVE your website!! I wanted to share a site I recommend to many of my clients – http://www.100daysofrealfood.com. Site was designed by a mom & focuses on “clean” eating. I especially love the lunch ideas portion that has lots of examples of simple healthy portable lunch ideas!! I thought of this site when Jake was talking about how unhealthy the lunchables are on Saturday!! Also, do you guys know about the restaurant “Clean Eatz”? They have organic healthy portable meals and also an eat in location in North Raleigh and Cary.
