Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup blanched almond flour
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
  • 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
  • 8 ounces Neufchatel or low-fat cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1 large egg , room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  • In a small bowl, combine almond flour, melted coconut oil, and 1 tablespoon maple syrup until a crumbly dough forms.
  • Divide the crust mixture evenly among the 12 muffin liners and press down firmly using the bottom of a small glass.
  • Bake the crusts for 5 minutes, then remove from the oven and set aside to cool while preparing the filling.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy using a hand mixer.
  • Add the Greek yogurt, pumpkin puree, 1/4 cup maple syrup, vanilla extract, pumpkin pie spice, and salt, mixing until fully incorporated.
  • Add the egg and mix on low speed until just combined, being careful not to over-incorporate air into the batter.
  • Divide the cheesecake batter evenly over the pre-baked crusts.
  • Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers have a slight jiggle.
  • Remove from the oven and allow to cool to room temperature in the tin for 30 minutes.
  • Transfer the muffin tin to the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours before removing the cheesecakes from the liners and serving.
