Low Calorie Pumpkin Pie Recipe

Pumpkin pie can be one of the healthier pie choices during the holidays - or frankly, any time of the year.

To reduce pie calories, Diet Bites examines the pie crust where a good deal of calories reside. In fact, they can add 80 to 250 calories on up to the piece of pie. To cut these calories up to 50% percent in the crust, allow a store-bought uncooked pie crust reach room temperature. Cut the crust in half. Next, roll out in between two sheets of waxed paper until crust is paper thin. Line pie plate and fill with your favorite pumpkin pie filling.

To cut calories in the pumpkin pie filling, let's examine the basic ingredients:

- canned OR fresh pumpkin (naturally low in calories & fat)

- sugar

- cream

- eggs

- spices such as cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg or the traditional pumpkin pie spice

To cut calories in the pumpkin pie filling, substitute the following in your recipe:

- Splenda for sugar

- low fat OR reduced fat OR light cream for regular canned cream

- Egg Substitute for eggs
