Pumpkin Pie Day -
Chippewa Creek Quilts LIGHT DEEP DISH PUMPKIN PIE

I have started living a healthier lifestyle but I can’t give up my pumpkin pie. I have been making deep dish pumpkin pie for 25 years and wanted to keep up the tradition while making it better for me. This recipe has a few small changes using fat free products that taste just as good and are good for me. I love the gingersnap crust.

Ingredients
Pie Filling
1 29 oz. can pumpkin
1 cup sugar
1 12 oz. can fat free evaporated milk
1 cup Egg Beaters
4 tsp. cinnamon
2 tsp. ginger
1 tsp. ground cloves
1 10 inch deep dish gingersnap crust (recipe below)
Gingersnap Crust
2 cups gingersnap crumbs
¼ cup sugar
1/3 cup light margarine, melted
Step by Step

Reduce temperature to 350 and bake 50-60 minutes or until knife inserted in the center of the pie comes out clean. Cool and serve with fat free whipped topping
