Skinny Pumpkin Cream Cheese Roll

October 1, 2025 Amanda Plott

The very first time that I had a pumpkin cream cheese roll, it was sometime in high school when my mom and I had purchased one from a local lady that made them from scratch around the holidays to sell for a little bonus side money.

It was one of the best things that I had ever eaten.

After that, I decided to try my hand at making one the following year. While it turned out well and was quickly gobbled up by my family (especially my little brother.) The task seemed daunting to me; mostly because I was so new to cooking and baking back then...

Healthy Pumpkin Spice Bread

September 10, 2024 Amanda Plott

We're now 2 whole days into October, which means it's time to get my pumpkin spice game on for the season! Yeah, yeah... I'm one of those, and I'm proud of it too. A lot of times, I draw my inspiration for my recipes from my personal friends and family. That, more often than not, usually involves the hijinx of my mom.

My mom is a great woman and a great mother. Truly one of the sweetest women you'll ever meet. ...Not the best cook on the planet, but she does have her handful of regularly requested staples around the year that are recipes she learned from her grandmother or picked up along the way when my brother and I were little. One thing she's great at is chocolate chip pumpkin bread, which I've revamped before...
