Low Carb Pumpkin Pie
- 2 cans Pumpkin (15 Oz.)
- 4 pieces Large Eggs
- 1-3/4 cup Splenda ( Or Generic Version)
- 1/2 teaspoons Salt
- 1 Tablespoon Plain Flour
- 1-1/2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 2 cans Evaporated Milk
- 2 Tablespoons Dark Brown Sugar
- 2 Tablespoons Pumpkin Pie Spice ( Or Equivalent)
- 3 pieces Deep Dish Pie Crusts
- 1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- 2. In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs, Splenda, salt, flour, vanilla, evaporated milk, pumpkin spice and brown sugar.
- 3. Add the pumpkin and mix thoroughly.
- 4. Pour into unbaked pie shells and bake at 425F for about 15 minutes, then reduce heat and bake at 350F for approximately 30 more minutes, or until center is "set."
- 5. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely, then refrigerate.
- 6. Serve with whipped cream (lots) or your preferred topping.
- Notes:
- * Substitute 3 cups of fresh pumpkin puree for the canned if you have it available.
- * I use a KitchenAid stand mixer to make these. Just be careful, because it will splash!
- * To lower the carb count even farther, you can bake it in buttered pie plates without the crust, then add a few crumbled ginger snaps as a garnish.
- * If you make this and the color is "off" a bit, you can add a few drops of yellow or red food coloring to make it more orange.
- * If you want, make your own pie crust, but I find that Marie Callender's are great and hold up really well. You may need to put a bit of foil around the edges while baking to prevent over-browning.
