Pear Crumble

This easy, comforting pear crumble is sure to please. Serve it as is or with low-fat ice cream or Vanilla Cream. Find the full recipe here at Delish.com.

Vegan Pumpkin Cheesecake

This is a great alternative to cheesecake or pecan pie. This recipe is from Shape.com.

Cocoa Cookie Dough Balls

No need to tell the kids that these are healthy, just eat them up knowing they are filled with almonds and oats, and sweetened only with dates and raisins! Find this recipe at Plant Powered Kitchen.

Skinny Pumpkin Mousse

Thanksgiving wouldn’t be complete without a pumpkin dessert or two. Here is a pumpkin recipe that has great taste, but low fat and calories. Check out Simply Nourished Living for this recipe.

Heavenly Banana Bites

  6. Oh, that Pear Crumble looks heavenly. I should have read this AFTER eating breakfast, for now my MultiGrain Cheerios will be a sure disappointment. 😀
