Creamy Lemon Pie Bites

January 11, 2016 By Kris Kelly

This week I’ve made a vow to watch my portions. Yep, I’ve gotten a little lazy and dipped my spoon one too many times lately.  One of my favorite tips for reducing portions is to use smaller bowls, plates and spoons. You’ll be amazed at how satisfying a dessert can be when consumed with tiny utensils.  Part of my new year plan is to create low-sugar, nutrient dense simple desserts using my muffin pan.  I love the ability to control how much goes into each space and the option to individually wrap each small dessert.  This helps remove the temptation to over-consume.  My Creamy Lemon Pie Bites combine the creaminess of coconut with the freshness of lemon – all poured over a soaked nut and date crust.  So delicious and satisfying!

I love eating desserts with lemon this time of year.  Lemons just have a way of refreshing the palate, thereby helping to reset the brain and desire for overeating.  We often need something to help get us over the crazy overindulgence hump, and that “something” is simple lemons for me.
