Healthy Pumpkin Pie Custard (76 calories)

WadeLam

There are a million incarnations of pumpkin custard across this beautiful land of ours. This particular one (originally from sugarfreemom.com – LOL) is not only simple and delicious, but also – gasp – LOW CALORIE. Okay, I’m being a little dramatic. There are many low-calorie pumpkin recipes. I just wanted this one to be different than everyone else’s. You know, to have that extra somethin’-somethin’.

And in my opinion, it does! I’ve had several low-calorie pumpkin custards made with artificial sweeteners – that taste…well…artificial. But because this is sweetened with only natural stevia, there’s no funky aftertaste.

Hope you enjoy this as much as my family did! And stay tuned – I will certainly be posting more pumpkin recipes as the leaves change colors. Seriously – I’m a pumpkin fiend. I’m normally pretty pale most of the year, but I sport a nice shade of orange during the latter months.

Thank you for this! I was going to make frittata with pumpkin tonight, kind of a savoury custard hahaha.
Can't wait to try this.

This will now be my breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Until I turn orange. And maybe after that.

Thanks for posting! Looks easy enough for the kitchenally challenged, too.

Oh yum. I really need to buy ramekins...

Confused about the sweeteners though... liquid vanilla stevia? and only 1 tsp?

Yep, that's right! Stevia is roughly 25x sweeter than sugar. It was the perfect amount for my taste!!
