South Beach Pumpkin Pie image

Tastes exactly like the real thing! I miss my sweets, and I got to thinking, you can have everything in pumpkin pie except the cream, sugar, and crust. All of those ingredients are very easy to substitute for, and tada--delicious pumpkin pie on the south beach diet, phases 1-3! I actually normally made my pumpkin pies this way, with real sugar instead of Splenda. Pumpkin isn't listed in the book anywhere, but its a squash like zucchini so its OK (or you could make a zucchini pie, or butternut, or crook neck or... I think I'll stick with pumpkin:)

Time 55m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (15 ounce) can plain pumpkin or 2 cups fresh pumpkin puree
1/2 cup Splenda granular
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ginger
2 eggs, blended
2/3 cup fat-free evaporated milk
1 low-fat whole wheat tortilla (omit during phase 1)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°.
  • Combine the eggs, milk, and pumpkin in a mixing bowl. Add the Splenda, nutmeg, ginger, and cinnamon.
  • Grease a 9 inch pie plate, and place tortilla in bottom to act as crust -or- just grease an 8x8-inch Pyrex pan (I prefer it without the crust.).
  • Pour pumpkin mixture into pan, and bake for 45-50 minutes till a knife comes out clean.
  • Delicious cold or hot. You can make 'mock' whipped cream by whipping a little bit of the leftover evaporated milk with some Splenda, but it's not the same as the real stuff.

This pie was a disaster. The crust was soggy and the filling was runny. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

The pie crust was a bit dry, but the filling was delicious. I would try a different crust recipe next time.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved it. It was easy to make and turned out looking beautiful.

I'm not a huge pumpkin pie fan, but this one was really good. The crust was perfect and the filling was creamy and flavorful. I would definitely make it again.

I've made this pie several times now, and it always turns out perfect. The crust is so easy to work with, and the filling is always smooth and creamy. My family loves it!

This pumpkin pie was a hit at my Thanksgiving dinner! The crust was flaky and buttery, and the filling was creamy and flavorful. I loved the hint of cinnamon and nutmeg. It was the perfect fall dessert.
