Crustless Pumpkin Pie - Lori's Cookbook

in #cooking5 years ago

Put this recipe aside for next holiday season, because everyone (well, almost everyone) loves a good pumpkin pie, and this one was a true winner - especially if you're trying to keep your carb count down.

(Low carbers might want to sub a lower-carb option for the sugar and flour.)

This is my entry for this week's @foodfightfriday challenge.

Crustless Pumpkin Pie

Preheat oven to 375F or 180 C.

Beat:

  • 3 eggs

Add in:

  • 2/3 cup brown sugar
  • 7 Tablespoons (scant 1/2 cup) sour cream or crème fraiche
  • 2 cups pumpkin purée (mine is homemade)

Mix thoroughly.

Stir in:

  • 2 1/2 Tablespoons flour (you might use 1 T gelatin instead for lower carb)
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Mix until well blended. (I only used the whisk, so it doesn't have to be perfect.)

Pour into a greased 9-inch pie pan.
Bake 25-30 minutes until the center is set but still jiggly.

Let it cool completely, then chill at least 4 hours.

Serve with cream (whipped which is traditional in the US - or runny which is more traditional in the UK.)

My opinion? This is definitely a keeper. I'd like to play with it for lower carb options still so that my holiday binge doesn't completely destroy my hard work to improve my health! (I just had an idea that it would work very well crossed with a cheesecake! MMMM!)

Thanks for being a part of this awesome community. Keep on doing what you are doing!

Thank you! The downvoters will not win this one!

That's right. By working together, we can get rid of this problem (I think). If this doesn't work, I'll have to wait until some other plan forms.

Mmmm another yummy recipe! ^_^ love it! Have a great weekend! :)

Thanks for stopping by!
Stay safe.

YUM!! This sounds delish!! I'm gonna give it a try. I think I'll try the crustless option you posted but also try one with an almond flour crust. Thanks for sharing!!

I'm sure the almond flour crust will work just as well. I will be (very soon) sharing a cheesecake I made with a really good almond meal crust that you might like.)

Oooh that looks delish! Would love to give it a try but wont be waiting for the next holiday season Haha!

hehehe - well, you have a harvest season coming up, don't you? So, that's perfect for trying this!
Thanks for stopping by!

haha yes indeed!

So nice to see you again Lori. Thanks for continuing to throw down with us and thanks for returning during the week and casting your vote. Your involvement with @foofightfriday is much appreciated and I always look forward to your contenders—the mess would be the same without you.

Good luck in round 78!

Thank you! I need to visit the weekly post more often. I do when I think about it... but gina doesn't give me all my notifications, so unless I think to check steemworld, I don't see my mentions.
This is a fun challenge to be in with. I'm going to have to start taking more pictures soon though - I'm almost caught up.

This looked very delicious..😊

I have to admit... sometimes I ditch the crust on the outside of the pumpkin pie. So this is a great option and looks amazing. Thanks for bringing your cookbook to the food fight every week.
Happy food Flingin’

Thanks for visiting.
It's a great option for sure - and honestly, the crust is the hardest part - and the part I always ate first because I preferred the filling anyway. ;-)
