Mini desserts are a popular thing right now! I love these Mini Pumpkin Pie Bites because they’re packed with flavor and everyone loves popping one in their mouth to eat! They’re a great Fall and Thanksgiving Dessert Idea!
Thanksgiving is going to be here before we know it! With Halloween less than a week away, we’re already in planning mode for the big eating day. I mean, come on, it’s the biggest eating day of the YEAR! I take advantage of that and make all of my favorite foods. This is not the day to hold back or try to count your calories!
When you think of Thanksgiving and dessert, I’m betting there are a few that come to your mind. Is your family a pumpkin pie loving family or do you go more to the apple and cherry pie? In my opinion, there’s not a wrong answer for this question, they’re all amazing!
We decided to try something different last year and make a variety of mini desserts, including these mini pumpkin pie bites. They’re perfect for little hands to grab on the go or for adults that want to try multiple different dessert flavors. Even after a big meal, you’ll have room left to try a bite or two of each dessert! It’s the perfect solution for those of us who want to eat ALL of the things!
