Holy Fall y'all!!

It's finally time to bust out my boots and scarves and stand in line for a good 30 minutes for that pumpkin spiced latte I've been craving since last year (yes I know I said I hate coffee, but c'mon...exceptions must made).  And what better way to kick off this gorgeous season than with some pecan pie??

Little guilt-free pecan pies I should note.

They're quick, effortless and at only 42 calories per serving, I promise your waistline will thank you!

I absolutely love these mini pies for the pure fact that they make great party treats and cute desserts!  If you're anything like me, when you go to parties, you probably stick to appetizers and desserts that are bite-sized and simple to eat.  Well lucky for you, these fall nicely into that category and would look amazing on any Thanksgiving table!

Hope you enjoy them!
