So, who wants pie ?!
All the flavour, minus the fuss I am here for it!
I mean just look at that filling . . .
Gluten free – Dairy free – Grain Free – DATE FREE – Refined sugar Free – Low carb – Keto – Paleo – Vegan friendly.
Subtly sweet, deliciously buttery, perfectly spiced, seriously caramel-y, rum spiked, perfectly portioned pecan pie bites (because after all that feasting, 2 bites = perfect finisher) everybody got room for that!
Let the festive fun begin!!!!!!
