Pumpkin Dip with Cinnamon Chips

One week until Halloween…can you believe it? I can’t! And I’m so excited for it! I love dressing up, all of the fantastic costumes, I love the trick-or-treating part… it’s a big deal to me, and I’m so happy that both of the oldest girls love it as much as I do! And you can bet we definitely have their costumes ready to go! But… with halloween comes lots (and lots) of candy. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy that part too, but I try and balance out how much candy the girls consume (and really who am I kidding… myself as well). This sweet treat is a healthier option to serve the kids after school, or even on a school lunch, but they defiantly think it’s a treat, and the best part? It’s ridiculously easy to make!

Serves: 2 cups
Ingredients
  • 3 8-inch tortillas
  • 2 tbsp melted butter
  • 1 tbsp white sugar

  2. In a medium sauce pan with a tight fitting lid add the pumpkin puree, apple juice, brown sugar, and spices. Stir, making sure to mix well.
  3. Bring to a boil, and reduce heat to medium. Simmer for about 20 minutes.
  4. While your dip is simmering, cut your tortillas into 1/8ths. Place on a parchment lined baking sheet.
  5. Brush the melted butter on to each ‘chip’.
  6. In a small bowl, mix cinnamon and sugar together. Sprinkle over the chips.
  7. Bake in oven for about 10 minutes (or until tortillas turn golden and crispy).
  8. Serve warm or cold. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week (if it lasts that long!!).

 

Cinnamon Chips

And there we have it! So easy your kids can do it! My girls love helping out in the kitchen, and this really was the perfect ‘snack’ they could help me make from start to (almost) finish. I take over when it comes to the oven or stove, but they did cut the tortillas using a plastic pizza cutter… how perfect!

  1. NOPE, I really cannot believe Halloween is this week, ACK! I love dressing up too, and Halloween is definitely one of my favorite holidays – I just don’t know where October went, or SUMMER for that matter, ha! 😉

    this sounds amazing – I love fall flavors like this.

  2. I love Halloween! Plan to finish my daughter’s costume tonight! This dip would be awesome to have on hand while I finished the costume, but I guess there is always another day… Psh, who am I kidding, I need to run to the store to get some pumpkin puree now!

  3. My 7 year old has just discovered how much he enjoys pumpkin flavored foods. I’m ecstatic because I’m a pumpkin all year round kind of gal. I’ve been on the hunt for all kinds of treats he and I can enjoy together. I think he would really like this. Thanks!

  4. Your pumpkin dip recipe sounds delish! I can’t wait to try this with some cinnamon chips.

    Hope you and your family has a fun and safe Halloween!
