Ingredients
- 1 slice sourdough
- ½ tbsp olive oil
- 3 Medjool dates
- Pinch of salt
- 4 tbsp PBFit Pumpkin Spice Powdered Peanut Butter
- 1 tbsp pumpkin purée
- 2 tbsp yogurt
- ½ tbsp soy milk
Toppings
- 1 tsp pumpkin seeds
- 1 tsp dried cranberries
- 1 tsp chopped pecans
- ½ tsp shaved dark chocolate
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat.
- Remove the pits from the Medjool dates and place them flat in the pan.
- Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pan-fry about 2 minutes per side, until soft, jammy, and deeply golden with caramelized edges. Remove from the heat.
- Toast your sourdough bread until golden and sturdy. Lay the warm caramelized dates across the toast and use the back of a fork to smash and spread them evenly over the surface.
- In a small bowl, combine the PBFit Pumpkin Spice powdered peanut butter, real pumpkin purée, dairy-free yogurt, and soy milk. Whisk briskly with a fork or small whisk until smooth, glossy, and spreadable.
- Spread the spiced pumpkin whip generously over the smashed-date layer. Scatter the pumpkin seeds, chopped pecans, and dried cranberries over top, then finish with shaved dark chocolate.
- Serve immediately while warm!
