Weight Watchers Banana Cream Pie-Yummy!

KatiePeca

My husband and I made this tonight and had it for dessert, it was VERY good!

Ingredients:

12 low-fat honey graham crackers, made into crumbs (3 full sheets)
1 tablespoon butter
1 teaspoon water
4 bananas (thinly sliced on the diagonal)
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 ounces unflavored gelatin (or standard size) (one pouch)
1/2 cup cold water
1/3 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups plain fat-free yogurt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
grated lime zest (optional)

Directions:

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees; spray a 9-inch pie plate with nonstick spray.
2 In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, butter and water with a fork.
3 Press into the bottom and up the sides of the pie plate. Bake until firm, 3-5 minutes; cool.
4 In another medium bowl, toss the bananas with the lime juice; reserve 1 cup. Arrange the remaining bananas over the crust.
5 In a small saucepan, sprinkle the gelatin over the cold water; let stand 2 minutes. Add the sugar; cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture boils and the gelatin and sugar dissolve, 2-3 minutes.
6 Remove from the heat; whisk in the yogurt and vanilla.
7 Pour into the pie plate. Arrange the reserved bananas over the pie; sprinkle with lime zest.
8 Refrigerate, covered with plastic wrap, until chilled, 2-3 hours ( I found it took a little longer)

For 1/8th of the pie, which is a decent slice, it is: 146 Calories, 32 carbs, 2g fat, 4g protein, 2g fibre and 59mg sodium

We really liked it and will definitely make it again!

The lime juice and yogurt make it tangy but the crust is bang on, it was great, I'm budgeting some calories for tomorrow so I can enjoy it again!
