"When I was on a low-fat diet, I couldn't bear the thought of celebrating Thanksgiving without my favorite pumpkin pie," explains Fort Wayne, Indiana's Mary Alice Dick. "So I altered the ingredients and created this thick pudding instead. Now I can enjoy the dessert throughout the year."

Delicious! I don't have custard cups so baked in a pie plate for 55 minutes. My husband loved it! Will make again.
I made this last night and it was delicious. I don't have custard cups so baked it in a pottery pie plate for about 55 minutes. My husband loved it! Will make this often. Thanks for a great recipe!

I also make a simular recipe, but follow the recipe on pumpkin can, substituting low-fat evap. milk, splenda on occasions, but I don't bake it in the oven. I place it in a 2 qt. baking dish, set inside a 3 qt. bk'g dish to which I place HOT water, then MICROWAVE it about 5-8 minutes, remove, and fold edges towards the center and continue cooking, repeating as necessary until all is cooked. It is not a smooth-looking texture, but the taste and quick convience of microwaving more than makes up for it's appearance, plus it keeps the heat in the kitchen to a minimum and if the oven is in use for something else, it saves oven space.

I made this for Thanksgiving as a light dessert alternative. I used brown sugar and adjusted the spices slightly to match our family's traditional favorite pumpkin pie recipe. Great!

Actually I haven't made this yet, but I will and I'm sure it's good. Can we use whole eggs, and if so how many? Thanks. Barb

Made it for myself and a gluten-intolerant friend - a very good substitute for pumpkin pie.

Was great for Thanksgiving, light desert after big meal. I also used the Splenda Brown sugar instead.

I would further lighten the recipe by using Egg Beaters' egg whites. I love pumpkin pie and this way, you can have the taste without the guilt.

I made this with butternut squash that I cooked down myself. Wow! Even my picky husband liked it. I will definately try it again and maybe try the Splenda in it.
