Helpful Tips
To make this Low-Fat Pumpkin Pie even easier, you can use a store-bought pumpkin pie spice blend instead of individual spices. For an added touch of sweetness, top your pie with a dollop of low-fat whipped cream or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
Storage Instructions
This pie can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Wrap it tightly with plastic wrap or store it in an airtight container.
Ingredient Substitutions
If you don’t have egg substitute on hand, you can use 2 large eggs instead. For a dairy-free option, try using a plant-based evaporated milk alternative.
Pairings
This Low-Fat Pumpkin Pie pairs beautifully with a cup of hot apple cider or a warm spiced tea. For a hearty fall meal, serve it alongside roasted turkey or a seasonal vegetable medley.
