A gluten-free and refined sugar-free spin on one of my grandmother’s pantry-staple desserts.

Pumpkin Pie Cheesecake

Cheese cake and pumpkin pie combines for this decadent holiday treat! The crust is made from my gluten free graham crackers keeping this entire dessert gluten free and refined sugar free. This cheesecake is several layers of flavor with a cheesecake layer, a pumpkin pie cheesecake layer and finished with a maple whipped topping. I recommend making this simple recipe the day before serving as it needs at least 8 hours of refrigeration time.
