How to Make WW Pumpkin Pie Cheesecake Bites
Prepare Crust: Preheat oven to 325°F and line a muffin pan with paper liners. Combine crushed chocolate wafers, melted butter, and a pinch of salt. Press the mixture evenly into each muffin liner, forming a smooth crust.
Prepare Filling: In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese, pumpkin puree, dark brown sugar, eggs, and pumpkin pie spice until smooth.
Fill & Bake: Spoon the pumpkin mixture into each lined muffin cup, filling them nearly to the top. Bake for 20–25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool & Serve: Allow cheesecakes to cool completely. Top each with a dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice just before serving.

FAQs & Tips
Can I make these cheesecake bites in advance? Yes! They keep great in the fridge for up to 3 days. Just hold off on adding the whipped cream until you’re ready to serve.
Can I freeze them? Definitely! Freeze without the whipped cream for up to a month. Thaw in the fridge overnight, and they’re good to go!
What’s the best way to crush the wafers? Pop them in a zip-top bag and crush with a rolling pin, or pulse them in a food processor—quick and easy!
What if I don’t have a muffin pan? No problem! Use mini cheesecake or tart pans. If using paper liners on a baking sheet, just be gentle when handling them.
How can I make this recipe vegan? Use dairy-free cream cheese, plant-based butter, and replace eggs with flax eggs (1 Tbsp flaxseed + 2.5 Tbsp water per egg). Easy swap!
Can I use homemade pumpkin puree? Yes! Just make sure it’s thick; if it’s watery, strain it a bit so the texture stays perfect.

Ingredients
1cup Greek Fat-Free Yogurt
8oz Cream Cheese, Low-Fat (softened)
1cup Pumpkin Puree
1/2cup Sugar Substitute (like Stevia or Monk Fruit)
2Large Eggs
1tsp Vanilla Extract
1/2tsp Cinnamon
1/4tsp Nutmeg
1/4tsp Ginger
1/8tsp Cloves
Graham Cracker Crust (, Low-Fat (optional) – For a classic touch)
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Set out all your ingredients and make sure your cream cheese is softened. If you’re using a crust, prepare it in a 9-inch pie dish. Using a pre-made low-fat graham cracker crust is a good option for a classic touch, or you can go crustless for an even lower-point version.
Step 2: Make the Filling
In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add in the Greek yogurt and continue to mix until creamy. Slowly add in the sugar substitute, vanilla extract, and spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves), blending until everything is well combined. This mixture should have a consistency similar to traditional cheesecake batter.
Step 3: Incorporate the Pumpkin and Eggs
Add the pumpkin puree, mixing until fully combined. Next, add the eggs one at a time, blending well after each addition. Be careful not to over-mix, as this can create air bubbles that may affect the texture of the cheesecake.
Step 4: Bake the Cheesecake
Pour the cheesecake mixture into your prepared crust or directly into a greased baking dish if making a crustless pumpkin cheesecake WW style. Place in the oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the center is just set but still slightly wobbly. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool inside to prevent cracking.
Step 5: Chill and Serve
Once the cheesecake has cooled to room temperature, cover it with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight. This chilling process is essential for setting the cheesecake’s texture and enhancing its flavors. Slice and serve as is, or garnish with a dollop of whipped topping or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
