Pumpkin Cookies – recipe from Smart Sweets!

Posted on January 27, 2012 by Lea Harris

Mmm. This is the photo I shared on Facebook earlier – Pumpkin Cookies from Katie Kimball’s Smart Sweets: 30 Desserts to Indulge Your Sweet Tooth book.

Posted on December 11, 2011 by Lea Harris

It’s always a pleasure to review one of Katie Kimball’s books. Just in time for the holidays, Smart Sweets: 30 Desserts to Indulge Your Sweet Tooth is here!

You can indulge that sweet tooth without caving to overly sweetened store-bought versions.

Dark Chocolate Truffles, Pumpkin Cookies, Apricot Sorbet…

The recipes in Smart Sweets are healthy-ISH, healthiy-ER, healthy-EST versions that use less sugar or replace white sugar with honey, maple syrup, or molasses. Made with whole grains or no grains at all, soaked and/or sprouted versions are included.

You will find real, healthy fats, nutrient-dense foods like yogurt, nuts, and milk, and ingredients you can pronounce.

Katie’s goal in Smart Sweets is to “offer you some sweets recipes that make your family feel spoiled without realizing they hardly strayed from a nourishing diet.” Read the full post here →
