Weight Watchers Recipe of the Day: WW Friendly Pumpkin Pie Recipes

Pumpkin pie is an essential part of the Thanksgiving holiday season for many of us. It sure is for me and my family.

Pumpkin is a superfood you should add to your diet all year long. It's rich in potassium, vitamin A, beta carotene and fiber. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said of traditional pumpkin pie

Low Fat Impossible Pumpkin Pie

Did you know that they typical slice of pumpkin pie has 350 (or more) calories, 14 g of fat and 45 g of carbohydrate? (Not exactly what you'd call Weight Watchers friendly!)

The Skinny on Healthy Pumpkin Pie

There are lots of things you can do to make your pumpkin pie lighter and healthier, so why not trade in your traditional sugary high fat one for something a little better for you?

When making pumpkin pie, always opt for pumpkin puree - not pumpkin pie mix - and add your own sweetener and spices.The pumpkin pie mix that you find in stores will be much higher in sugar and calories than regular canned pumpkin.

I've got a great healthy low calorie recipe for Pumped-Up Pumpkin Pie Bites from The Biggest Loser Dessert Cookbook: More than 80 Healthy Treats That Satisfy Your Sweet Tooth without Breaking Your Calorie Budget (affiliate link)by Devin Alexander. They're a great individual-sized portion controlled alternative to a big wedge of pumpkin pie.

According to my calculations each two pumpkin pie bite serving has about 94 calories, *2 Weight Watchers PointsPlus, *4 WW Freestyle SmartPoints.

And 8 more healthy pumpkin pies including gluten-free and vegan options selected from around the web that I can't wait to try. I've already calculated the Weight Watchers Points Values for them so you don't have to. Enjoy!

Prep Time20 minutes mins

Cook Time45 minutes mins

Total Time1 hour hr 5 minutes mins

Servings (adjustable): 16

Calories: 94

Author: Martha | Simple Nourished Living

Ingredients

  • ¾ cup whole grain, crunchy, high-fiber, low sugar cereal (such as Kashi 7 Whole Grain Nuggets)
  • 2 tablespoons 100% pure maple syrup
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 8 large egg whites
  • 1 can (15 ounces) pumpkin puree
  • ¾ cup agave nectar
  • 2 tablespoons whole wheat pastry flour
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • cup low-fat whipped topping

Instructions

  • Position an oven rack in the center and preheat the oven to 350F degrees. Lightly mist an 11x7-inch glass or ceramic baking dish with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.

  • Crush the cereal, in a blender (affiliate link) or food processor (affiliate link), with a mortar and pestle, or manually.

  • Place the crushed cereal in a small bowl (affiliate link). Add the maple syrup and cinnamon and mix until well combined. Spoon the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Gently press down on the cereal mixture, spreading it evenly across the bottom of the baking dish. (It may help to do this with a piece of wax paper or damp hands, as the mixture will be sticky.)

  • Bake for 7 to 9 minutes or until slightly browned. Remove dish from the oven and se on a cooling rack (affiliate link).

  • Meanwhile, add the egg whites to a large mixing bowl (affiliate link). Whisk them lightly until they are slightly bubbly. Add the pumpkin, agave syrup and flour and whisk until well blended. Stir in the vanilla, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder and salt and continue mixing until well combined.

  • Pour the filling over the baked crust and spread it out evenly.

  • Bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out dry or with a few damp crumbs.

  • Remove from the oven and place the dish on a wire cooling rack (affiliate link) until cooled to room temperature.

  • Cut into 32 pumpkin "bites." Add a small dollop of light whipped topping just before serving
