HEALTHY LOW FAT BANANA CREAM PIE
This recipe is based on one found on the Food Network website but after I made it a few times I tweaked it and it's even better. This is so good, super easy and best of all guilt free because it's low in fat and calories because there is no cream in it. You won't miss it though - it's full of real banana flavor. For even more savings on fat and calories use a real dairy light whipped cream from a can. If you don't have a hand blender just mash the extra banana with a fork and mix it well into the pudding. Time to make stated does not inlude chilling time.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Spray a 10-inch pie plate with cooking spray. In a food processor, process graham crackers until finely ground. Add butter and 2 tablespoon of water, and process until the crumb clumps together. Do not over process. Press the crumb mixture into bottom of pie plate and about 1/2-inch up the sides. Bake for 10 minutes, then let cool.
- In the meantime, make the filling. Put the gelatin in a small bowl; add 3 tablespoons of boiling water and stir until gelatin is dissolved. In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1/3 cup of sugar and the flour. In a medium bowl lightly beat the milk and egg yolks together. Add the egg yolk and milk mixture to the saucepan and whisk so the flour and sugar dissolve. Cook over a medium heat, stirring constantly, for about 10 minutes, until mixture comes to a boil and has thickened. Stir in the vanilla extract and the gelatin. Cut up the extra banana and using a hand blender blend it into the pudding mixture. Set aside to cool slightly.
- Arrange the sliced bananas in layers on the graham cracker crust and pour the pudding on top. Carefully cover with plastic wrap. Place in the refrigerator until the pudding has set, about 3 hours.
- Whip the cream with an electric beater. When it is about halfway done, add 1/2 teaspoon of sugar, then continue whipping until fully whipped. Put the whipped cream in a plastic bag, concentrating it in 1 corner of the bag. Snip that corner off the bag and squeeze the whipped cream out of the bag in a decorative pattern around the pie.

LOW FAT BANANA CREAM PIE
This is a fantastic and easy lower fat version modified from a recipe from Healthy Appetite (the show is hosted by dietitian Ellie Krieger). It can be made lactose free simply by using lactose free milk. Including the graham crackers, one serving contains 3.4 grams of fat, with only 0.6 grams of that saturated. Does not include set up time in the refrigerator.

- Press crumb mixture into bottom and partially up sides of pie tin. Bake 10 minutes. Let cool.
- To make the filling, place 3 tablespoons of cold water in a small ramekin. Slowly sprinkle gelatin evenly over water, being careful not to let it clump. Let bloom (it is done when it soaks up all the water - this will happen pretty quickly).

- Add the egg mixture to the pan of dry ingredients and whisk to dissolve.
- Cook over medium high heat, stirring constantly, 5 minutes. It should come to a boil and thicken.

- Arrange a third of the bananas (one banana) on the bottom of the graham cracker crust. Pour half the pudding over it. Continue to layer another third of the bananas, followed by the other half of the pudding. Top with remaining third of bananas.
- Store in the refrigerator until pudding has set, approximately 3 hours.

QUICKEST CHOCOLATE PIE (WW CORE STYLE)
I came up with this "pie" recipe when I was craving some chocolate while on the Weight Watchers Core plan and plain old pudding wouldn't quite do it. Since this pudding is the only chocolate thing on the entire core list, I decided to work with it. Not everything included is core, but in the amounts listed below (1 serving worth), they are 0 points (I calculated each separately). If you eat more than 1 serving, I guess it wouldn't be free. You could always use different flavors of pudding of course - cheesecake would be good, or what about banana cream with banan slices? So many options!

Steps:
- To make the sugar dough: Combine the butter and sugar in a food processor until just blended (or cut the ingredients together with a pastry blender).
- Add the egg pulsing or tossing to combine.
- Add the flour and mix until it is just incorporated, no longer.
- Gather the dough into a ball, flatten it into a disk, and wrap in plastic wrap or wax paper and chill for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F, place the oven rack in the lower third of the oven.
- Roll out the dough on a floured surface until it is about 1/8 inch thick.
- Gently fit it, without stretching, into a buttered 10-inch Tart pan (preferably with a removable bottom and fluted sides).
- If you do not have a tart pan, you can use 10 inch or deep 9 1/2 inch pie pan.
- Trim off the excess dough, leaving a 3/4 inch overhang.
- Tuck in the overhanging dough, pressing the edges of the crust against the sides of the pan and forming a high, fluted border.
- Line the dough with a sheet of buttered foil (buttered side down) and weigh down with weights or beans.
- Bake the shell until the sides are set, about 12 minutes.
- Carefully remove the weights and foil and gently prick dough all over with a fork.
- Continue to bake until pale gold and baked through, about 5 minutes.
- Cool the pie shell completely on a wire rack.
- Making the White Pastry Cream: Bring the milk and vanilla bean to a boil.
- Meanwhile, whisk the egg yolks and sugar in a bowl until pale and light, about 1 1/2 minutes.
- Whisk in the cornstarch until smooth.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat, and whisk 1/4 cup of the hot milk into the egg yolk mixture.
- Repeat once or twice.
- Scrape the warmed egg yolk mixture into the saucepan with the remaining milk and return to a boil, whisking the entire time, boil for one minute.
- Remove the pastry cream from the heat, and whisk in the butter and white chocolate until smooth.
- Strain the custard into a clean bowl.
- Place a sheet of wax paper or plastic wrap directly on the surface of the cream and refrigerate until cooled.
- Shortly before serving time, whip the cream until nearly stiff.
- Thinly slice the bananas and toss with the lemon juice.
- Fold the bananas and the liquers into the chilled pastry cream and gently fold in the whipped cream until blended.
- Fill the cooled pie shell with the filling.
- Gently scatter the chocolate curls over the filling, covering the tart completely.
- Very lightly dust the chocolate curls with cocoa powder and serve.
- To make the chocolate curls: Melt the white chocolate in a double broiler until smooth.
- Pour the chocolate onto a marble slab or the back of a smooth baking sheet.
- With a spatula, spread out the chocolate into an even 1/8 thick layer.
- Set aside to cool to room temperature.
- Push a chef's knife blade away from you through a 4 inch width of chocolate, forming a loose curl.
- Continue to form chocolate curls with the remaining chocolate.
- With a large spatula, very gently transfer the curls to a baking sheet and refrigerate until needed.
