Add your commentMy husband makes several of these pies every Thanksgiving Day to share with the family + friends…BIG hit !!!
This was voted as a keeper for my recipe box.
I made it for a family gathering. All who shared, enjoyed it.
This one sounds great and am going to get the ingredients and make it right after the first of the year.
birdy, you will have to cook your pumpkin before making this. in the u.s. we can buy pumpkin in the can and not have to cook it, before we use it.
Sherrill try Rice Flour instead of regular flour. My sister-in-law uses rice flour because she and her family are allergic to regular flour for the same reason your family is.
brandi-48 asked for the cooking directions for The Crustless Pumpkin Pie. I sent a comment with directions from memory. I just found my old recipe which states: Bake @ 425 for 12-15 min.then Reduce Temp to 350 for 30-35 min.
I was doubtful but this recipe really works and if fantastic. Even my non-diabetic husband enjoyed it enough to say he didn't need me to make my usual sugared crusted pie!!! I highly recommend you try this!
Hi Darron ,
I want to try this recipe , it looks easy and delicious but one question : What is a can of pumpkin?Is that fresh pumpkin or cooked/half-cooked and canned? I live in Turkey and we have fresh pumpkin here.Do you think I would need to pre-cook the pumpkin first? Or it is enough to grate & mix fresh pumpkin only?
Thank you.
I plan on trying this recipe because I'm diabetic and my husband and daughter are celiac. They can't have wheat so no crust on the pie. Thanks for posting the recipe.
Ladyhawk do you like Rice Milk? It's not dairy and so there for not from a cow. If you like Rice Milk then try that. My sister-in-law uses her Rice Milk whenever a recipe calls for milk.
I can't have dairy either. May I use something else besides skim milk?
Thanks for your answers as to the Splenda, I had no idea that you could also find it in brown sugar. So will get busy and cook for the holidays with a clear conscience!! Thanks so much!! Pat R
This will also be great for those of us who have wheat allergies in the family. Definitely going to try this.
this sounds very good, I will try it for the holidays
I can hardly wait to try this for Thanksgiving. I make chocolate chip cookies with the Splenda sugar and brown sugar in the large bags. I keep them in my cannisters always.
question can i sub something besides adding salt
Just want to answer the question to Pat Roth. The answer is, Yes, you can buy Splenda in a box that is not the packets. You can also get Splenda Brown Sugar in a box. I use it all the time.
It is absolutely delicious my best friend is diabetic and when I gave a piece of this pie she loved it! It was also a recipe that my other friends that are not diabetic loved it too.
May I ask if Splenda may be boughten in a larger container than just the packets? PR
Thank you for adding the directions. Now I can print it out and make it for a dessert for myself at Thanksgiving and at Christmas time.
