All the Fall Pumpkin Recipes, Please!
Fall is one of the best times for recipes, in my opinion. I love all the pumpkin spice treats and varieties that are out there.
I’m always looking to create something new and different that is actually a teeny bit healthy too. I think I found it.
Say Hello to Pumpkin Pie Frozen Yogurt Bark
I’m no stranger to making frozen yogurt bark – it is one of my favorite go-tos in the summer when I want something cold and a little bit sweet, but not super-sugary {like this loaded version of Strawberry Frozen Greek Yogurt Bark}!
This year, I decided to try a pumpkin pie version of it, and in my opinion, it did not disappoint.
Let me show you how it’s done.
Ingredients & Materials
Here’s what you need:
1 32 oz. container of honey vanilla Greek yogurt
½ cup of canned pure pumpkin
1-3 tsp cinnamon (This will be added one teaspoon at a time, to taste.)
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1 cup honey grahams cereal, crushed (Cinnamon Toast Crunch or cinnamon graham crackers can also be used)
½ cup chopped pecans (I like to use a full cup!)
Parchment paper
Ziplock sandwich bag
Instructions for Pumpkin Pie Frozen Yogurt Bark
First, you want to a line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Then, in a mixing bowl, add the yogurt and the pumpkin. Mix until thoroughly combined.
After that, add in the cinnamon, 1 teaspoon at a time to taste. I like cinnamon, so I used 3 teaspoons, and I thought it was perfect.
Next, add in 1 teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice and mix thoroughly. You can start with a ½ tsp, if you are uncertain how strong it will be.
Mix all ingredients until fully combined.
Then, take a rubber spatula and pour mixture onto baking sheet and smooth.
Place your cereal in a Ziploc bag and lightly crunch and break up the cereal with your hands. Then, drizzle cereal evenly over the yogurt.
Finally, evenly pour pecans over the mixture.
Gently press the cereal and pecans into the yogurt with the rubber spatula.
Place the yogurt bark in the freezer and freeze for 3 to 4 hours until solid. Ideally, freeze for 24 hours.
After 24 hours, remove baking sheet from freezer and gently lift the corner of the parchment paper so frozen yogurt bar will break into smaller pieces.
You may need to use a pizza cutter for the first few pieces, and then you can break the rest by hand.
Frozen yogurt bar can be stored in containers in the freezer.
The result is delicious, it is perfect to grab for a quick sweet treat that is healthy – and it also is a perfect way to enjoy the yummy fall snacks.

Paleo Help
I have some questions. I am currently trying out paleo. I need to know some things. Why do some say NO GRAINS and some say white rice is fine? Why do some say NO COFFEE and some say just black coffee is fine? No potatoes! Yes potatoes? I want to do this right so I am only drinking black coffee, no grains, no corn, no potatoes, no sweeteners, only natural sugars. I am basically doing meat, fruit, vegetables minus potatoes and corn and that is all. Help please. Also – ANY jarred salad dressings that are acceptable????

Hi Rachel,
I’m not a paleo expert, but from my understanding, grains are not allowed in a paleo diet, including white rice. I’ve never heard anything about coffee in particular, but I know dairy isn’t allowed, so some will use coconut milk or make bullet coffee. Potatoes are not recommended but are allowed in moderation. As for salad dressing, it’s the sugar and other additives that make it an issue. If you can find a clean version (I think Tessa Mae was one?), that should be fine. As I said, I’m not an expert – I generally lean toward clean eating as I found elimination diets too restrictive. But I def. encourage you to take a look at some paleo experts online who might be able to offer certain clarification! Hope this helps! Thanks, Rachel!
