INGREDIENTS:
- 2 cups of all-purpose flour ( I use GOLD MEDAL).
- 1 tsp baking soda.
- 2 tsp baking powder.
- 2 tsp GROUND CINNAMON.
- 1/2 tsp salt.
- 3/4 cup sugar substitute ( I use LAKANTO CLASSIC MONKFUIT SWEETENER ).

- 1 cup unsweetened applesauce.
- 1 (15 oz.) can of pumpkin.
- 4 lightly beaten eggs or 1 cup of liquid egg alternative.
CREAM CHEESE SWIRL:
ADVERTISEMENTS
- 8 oz. light cream cheese, softened at room temperature
- 2 Tbsp skim milk or unsweetened almond milk
- 1/3 cup sugar substitute (that is equivalent to 1/3 cup real sugar) I use Lakanto Classic Monkfruit Sweetener
- 1 egg
DIRECTIONS:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Spray a 10 X 15 or 18 X 13 BAKING SHEET with non-stick cooking spray. (I use an 18×13 baking sheet.)
- Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl combine, flour, baking soda, powder, salt, cinnamon, sugar substitute, and cloves.
- Stir until combined.
- Add eggs or liquid egg, pumpkin and unsweetened applesauce.
- Stir until well combined.
- Pour batter into the prepared baking pan.
- In a medium mixing bowl combine, softened cream cheese, skim milk, egg, and sugar substitute.
- Whisk until nice and smooth. To avoid lumps, make sure the cream cheese is softened, and/or at room temperature. Pour the cream cheese mixture over the pumpkin batter.
- Using a table knife gently cut through the batter to make swirls with the cream cheese evenly through the batter.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes.
Servings: Makes 36 bars
1 Point™ for one bar or 2 bars for 3 Points
Notes:
- The point value per serving is the same with or without the cream cheese swirl.
- If want to use a smaller baking dish ( 9 x 13 ) keep in mind they will be thicker (more cake-like) and you will want to increase the cooking time to 35-40 minutes.
- Point value can vary depending on the serving size: if you cut it into 18 bars they are 3 smart points per bar if you cut it into 24 bars they are 2 smart points per bar or 31-36 bars they are 1 smart point each.
- In order to calculate the points on a recipe you have to enter the ingredients in manually (by ingredient) not by the nutritional information in the WW recipe builder-since this recipe contains zero-point items the app doesn’t realize there are zero-point items in the recipe and will calculate it based only off the nutritional info which is not accurate.
