This pie has half the fat of regular pumpkin pie. Add pumpkin itself is a nutritional plus --- like most members of the squash family, it's loaded with vitamin A (as beta-carotene).
Ingredients: 1 cup 1% lowfat cottage cheese 1 1/4 cups canned solid-pack pumpkin 2/3 cup egg substitute or 1 large whole egg plus 4 large egg whites 1/3 cup light or dark corn syrup 1/4 cup sugar 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract 1 baked Easy Flaky Pastry lowfat frozen yogurt (optional)
Method: Preheat oven to 400o. Process cottage cheese, pumpkin, egg substitute, corn syrup, sugar, flour, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract in an electric blender until smooth. Pour into pastry shell; bake for 20 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 325o and continue baking 25 to 30 minutes or until pie is just set. Let cool on a wire rack; serve at room temperature or chilled with frozen yogurt, if desired.
