Well, we\u2019re still in the middle of pumpkin season and these fruits aren\u2019t going to eat themselves. So, let\u2019s cut them up and serve them for healthy Halloween party desserts, shall we? Making pumpkin pie from scratch can be grueling, but you can turn it into a fun family activity!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gather everyone in the kitchen and divide the pie-making tasks. For instance, have someone remove seeds from the pumpkin. Then get someone else to scoop out the pulp. You can also ask the strongest person in the room to squeeze out excess pumpkin juice. And so on! When the pie is ready to be served, everyone will be wolfing down their share happily, knowing they helped make it! &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.intelligentlabs.org\/thanksgiving-keto-pumpkin-pie\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Link to full recipe<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-recipe-4-raspberry-and-pistachio-brownies-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp\">Recipe #4 \u2013 Raspberry and Pistachio Brownies &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/eu.intelligentlabs.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/keto-raspberry-and-pistachio-brownies-05-1024x512.jpg\" alt=\"featured image for keto raspberry and pistachio brownies\" class=\"wp-image-12130\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>No. of servings \u2013 15<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Prep time: 5 mins<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cook time: 25 mins<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Total time: 30 mins<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s hard to go wrong with this recipe.

Well, depending on who your crowd is&#8230; If they\u2019re mostly kids, you want to use less bitter chocolate (e.g. milk chocolate bars). But if they\u2019re health conscious, then use at least 70% dark chocolate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pro tip:<\/strong> Try mixing different nuts with the chocolate.
