Sleepy Time Paleo Pumpkin Pudding Bites
I consider good sleep to be in the top 3 keys to optimal health. Sleep is up there with proper diet and exercise. Here are some benefits of sleep just to name a few:
Sleep can:
Help reduce stress and inflammation.
Improve your memory.
Lower your blood pressure.
Help your body to fight sickness/infection and repair itself. Some studies show it can help fight cancer.
Help you maintain a healthy weight and balance hormones. When we are tired, we look for energy in the form of food or caffeine.
Put you in a better mood. When we are low in energy, we can get cranky!
Keep your heart healthy.
Make you smarter.
Make you more alert and energized the next day/more productive.
Do you want better quality sleep?
If so, I’m very excited to introduce to you the secret weapon in my SLEEPY TIME PALEO PUMPKIN PUDDING BITES. It’s Pumpkin Spice Organifi GOLD! This is a limited edition supplement from Organifi that will be launching next week on August 20th so mark your calendars and make sure you jump on this before it sells out.

These pudding bites are so dreamy delicious and the perfect little after- dinner dessert to help you wind down before bed. I’m all about high quality ingredients and using food as healthy nourishment! Pumpkin is low in calories and packed with lots of fiber and nutrients. Almond butter and coconut oil are both great sources of healthy fats and are highly satiating. Chia seeds are a complete protein, high in antioxidants, loaded with gut friendly fiber, and have anti-inflammatory properties. These delicious pumpkin pudding bites are loaded with so many anti-inflammatory, immune-boosting, healthy gut, and sleep promoting ingredients! I can’t wait for you to try it!
Ingredients:
1 cup canned organic pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie)
1 cup creamy nut butter (Almond butter or Nuttzo are my faves)
3/4 cup coconut oil
1-2 tbsp chia seeds (optional)
2 scoops Organifi Pumpkin Spice GOLD
organic maple syrup to taste (about 1/4 -1/2 cup)
Directions:
Heat up pumpkin puree, nut butter, and coconut oil in a pan on the stove at low to medium heat until mixed well.
Add in chia seeds and Organifi Pumpkin Spice GOLD and mix well.
Add maple syrup to sweeten to your liking.
Remove from heat and then pour into either silicone molds or a glass dish with parchment paper.
Chill in fridge for about 2 hours.
Cut into cubes or pop them out of the silicone molds.
Enjoy them chilled so that they are not melted.
