Ingredients:
2/3 cup soy flour
1/2 cup pecans, finely ground
1/3 cup whole-grain pastry flour
1/4 cup sugar substitute
6 tbsp chilled butter, 12 pieces
2 tbsp ice water
1 can pureed pumpkin
3/4 cup sugar substitute
1 tsp ground cinnamon
3/4 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp ground cloves
1/4 tsp salt
2 large egg
1 1/4 cup heavy cream
Instructions:
Ground pecans, mixed with two kinds of flour, create a tender and flavorful
piecrust. This pie tastes like the real thing—with just a fraction of the
carbs. Be sure to leave enough time for chilling, which facilitates cutting
and serving.
1. Heat oven to 425°F. In a large bowl whisk together soy flour, pecans,
pastry flour and sugar substitue. Cut in butter with a pastry blender or
two knives until butter pieces are about the size of peas. Add the ice
water; stir to combine.
2. Transfer crust mixture to a 9' pie plate. Press along bottom and sides
of pie plate to form a crust. Place in freezer to harden, about 15 minutes.
3. Cover crust with aluminum foil and bake 15 minutes; remove from oven and
take off foil. Reduce oven to 375°F.
4. In a bowl, whisk pumpkin, sugar substitute, cinnamon, ginger, cloves,
and salt to combine. Mix in eggs, one at a time. Add heavy cream and mix
well.
5. Pour filling into partially baked piecrust. Cover crust edge with
aluminum foil. Bake 40 minutes, or until filling is set but still a little
jiggly in the middle. Cook on a wire rack.
