0 Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie

UPDATED! 10/09/12

Adapted from this recipe, found here.


For a 9"x13" dish, use the recipe below. For Pie Pans, use the recipe all the way at the bottom!

Ingredients:

Crust:
1 c Oats*
1 c Almond Flour/Meal
1/2 c Organic Sugar
1/2 c Coconut Oil
1 Egg or 2 Egg Whites

Pie Filling:
1 1/2 c Pumpkin Puree
2c Almond Milk
2 tsp Cinnamon
A pinch of Salt
2 Packets Setvia
2 Eggs, beaten OR 1/2 c Egg Whites (use egg whites for less calories)
1/4 tsp Nutmeg or Pumpkin Pie Spice (add more if you like it "spicey"... i hate when there's too much nutmeg!)
1-2 scoops Whey Protein/Vanilla Protein Powder OR Vanilla Casein (I used Perfect Fit Protein Powder)
Pecans or walnuts, chopped (optional) -leave out for less fat & calories.



Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Combine the first 3 ingredients of the Crust into a large bowl. Combine with a whisk. Add your coconut oil (melted or non...it will melt with the heat of your hands anyways) and need into a crumbly crust mixture.
Press tightly onto the bottom of a 9x13" glass Pyrex Dish.

Bake at 350 degrees for 12-15 minutes to set, then remove from oven.

Next, bring your almond milk to a boil in a small pot. Stir in your cinnamon, salt & nutmeg (or pumpkin pie spice).

In a large bowl, add your pumpkin puree & pour in the almond milk mixture. Add your eggs/egg whites.
Whisk together and continue by adding in your protein powder & stevia.
Mixture will thicken upon whisking!

Pour  your pumpkin pie filling on top of your crust, sprinkle with your pecans or walnuts (optional) and bake for 30 minutes at 350.

Allow to cool for 25 minutes & REFRIGERATE for 1-2 hours.
I refrigerated mine overnight.

*If you are low carb, reduce the oats to 1/2 c and increase the almond meal to 1 1/2 c.

Serving Size: 1 square slice
Makes 15 slices, or 30 if you make them even smaller!
