Ingredients
  

2 cups plain Greek yogurt

1 cup pumpkin puree (can be canned or freshly made)

1/2 cup maple syrup (adjust to your sweetness preference)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup crushed graham crackers (for the crust)

2 tablespoons melted butter or coconut oil

Whipped cream (for topping)

Optional: chopped pecans or walnuts for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Graham Cracker Crust:

    - In a medium mixing bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers with the melted butter (or coconut oil). Stir until all the crumbs are well-coated.

      - Distribute the crumb mixture evenly across the bottoms of 8 small cups or ramekins, pressing down firmly to create a solid crust layer. Set these aside.

        Make the Pumpkin Yogurt Mixture:

          - In a separate bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt. Stir until the mixture is smooth and all ingredients are fully blended.

            - Taste the mixture and feel free to add more maple syrup if you'd like it sweeter.

              Swirl the Mixtures:

                - Spoon a tablespoon of the pumpkin yogurt mixture over the crust in each cup. Continue adding the mixture until each cup is filled to about 2/3 full.

                  - Use a butter knife or a toothpick to gently swirl the pumpkin yogurt into the cups, creating a beautiful marbled effect.

                    Freeze:

                      - Carefully place the cups in the freezer and allow them to freeze for a minimum of 4 hours, or until they are completely solid.

                        Serve:

                          - When ready to serve, let the cups sit at room temperature for approximately 5 minutes to soften slightly for easier eating.

                            - Top each cup with a generous dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle on chopped pecans or walnuts if desired.

                              - Enjoy your delightful Frozen Yogurt Pumpkin Pie Swirl Cups!
