South Beach Pumpkin Pie

Ingredients

• 1 (15 ounce) can plain pumpkin or 2 cups fresh pumpkin puree

• 1/2 cup Splenda granular
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1/2 teaspoon ginger
• 2 eggs, blended
• 2/3 cup fat-free evaporated milk
• 1 low-fat whole wheat tortilla (omit during phase 1)

Directions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 375°.

2. 2

   Combine the eggs, milk, and pumpkin in a mixing bowl. Add the Splenda, nutmeg, ginger, and cinnamon.

3. 3

   Grease a 9 inch pie plate, and place tortilla in bottom to act as crust -or- just grease an 8x8-inch Pyrex pan (I prefer it without the crust.).

4. 4

   Pour pumpkin mixture into pan, and bake for 45-50 minutes till a knife comes out clean.

5. 5

   Delicious cold or hot. You can make 'mock' whipped cream by whipping a little bit of the leftover evaporated milk with some Splenda, but it's not the same as the real stuff.
