MONA'S LIGHTER PUMPKIN PIE



Mona's Lighter Pumpkin Pie image

This is a reduced-fat and very low sugar pumpkin pie that my diabetic husband loves. It has a nice texture and isn't too sweet. Those who prefer a sweeter-tasting pie may want to increase the amount of sugar substitute blend that's used. Remember the brown sugar blend does have sugar, so diabetics will need to watch how much is added.

PERFECT PUMPKIN PIE

Canned pumpkin purée is quick and easy to use. Don't substitute fresh pumpkin purée in this pie; it will be too watery.

TRADITIONAL PUMPKIN PIE



Traditional Pumpkin Pie image

Usually I prepare two different desserts for our holiday dinner, but one of them must be pumpkin pie-otherwise, it just wouldn't seem like Thanksgiving. My version calls for more eggs than most, making this pie's pumpkin custard fillings especially rich-tasting. -Gloria Warczak, Cedarburg, Wisconsin
