5. Plum Galettes
Light ingredients like low-sugar marmalade and reduced-fat cream cheese make these gorgeous galettes a healthy fall dessert. Low-calorie, sweet-tart plums contribute vitamins A and C to the pretty pastries. For a pleasant hint of salty crunch and healthy fat boost, sprinkle the petite pies with chopped almonds or walnuts.
6. Spiced Molasses Cupcakes with Marshmallow-Cream Cheese Frosting
Take a couple of the flavors from your favorite s’mores recipe and tiptoe them into fall territory. Sticky-sweet molasses transforms ordinary cupcakes into a so-seasonal treat. Reduced-fat cream cheese and marshmallow creme keep the healthy fall dessert’s tangy frosting fluffy and light. Sprinkle with cinnamon or cocoa powder (the latter to amplify the campfire-side flair).
