My favorite pumpkin pie

[mmcnealy]

This recipe makes my favorite pumpkin pie, nice mouth taste, not too sweet and its low calorie too, very Weight Watcher friendly because its made with honey instead of sugar and can be made as a custard instead of a pie. I got it out of a National Honey Board cookbook that my Mom has from the 70's or 80's.

Pumpkin Pie with Honey
15 oz can of pumpkin
2/3 cup rich milk (I use low fat soy milk)
1/2 cup honey
3 eggs
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 Tablespoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon ginger
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon cloves

Mix ingredients well until smooth and spices mixed all the way through.
Pour into an unbaked pie shell or large casserole dish.
Bake at 425 F for 15 minutes. Reduce temp to 375 F and bake for 40-50 minutes more until set and knife in center comes out clean. Cool and then eat.

That looks like it could be very tasty.

Lowcal sweeteners

Have you tried baking with Stevia? I've tried it in coffee but not in baked goodies yet.

My Mom has and there are several good cookbooks out there for it, but I'm not a big fan of the after-taste of Stevia.

That does sound good; do you suppose rich milk = whole milk?

Yes, I think rich milk = whole milk, although I make it with the equivalent of 2% soy milk and it works out fine.
