Hi
I have had a good weekend eating crustless sugar free, gluten free pumpkin pie with cream for dessert.
I converted an American recipe I had.if anyone would like the recipe let me know and I will post it.
It's 150 cals for 1/8th pie approximate 15G CHO.
 
I love pumpkin pie. I'll show you mine if you show me yours? I have never calculated the carbs but think it is an alright one that should be low.
Should we post in the low carb recipe section? Lets..............................................................
Have just made some coffee cakes. I could post this one too!

Hi
Yes please let's post in recipe section, if yours is lower carb than mine ill have to swap!
 
I think that you are right, this is the place to post a recipe.

Vanilla Pumpkin Pie

Crust

2 heaped Tbs ground hazelnuts
4 heaped Tbs ground almonds
1 Tbsp butter
Sweetener (I use Xylitol) about a tablespoon
pinch of sea salt flakes

Filling

350 grams cooked mashed pumpkin
60 grms butter
3 tsps sweetener (I use Xylitol)
1 tsp burbon or rum vanilla extract
3 large eggs
add shakes of ground cinnamon, ginger, cloves
cream as you think would fit!

Line a spring form pan with baking parchment/paper.
Mix all crust ingredients together ( I melt butter first) and press into pan and refrigerate to firm.

Filling
Process all together except eggs and spices. Add eggs singly then spices and cream to make a thick pouring batter. Pour onto chiled crust and bake at 140 C for 30 - 40 mins.
Cool and serve cool/cold with cream

I am not a cook who measures exactly but find it easy to make the recipes successful despite my slapdash methods!
I served it to my adult children over the New Year as Christmas Fare. I did get a request from my youngest for the recipe recently so she seems to want to impress someone

Hi Clearviews
I like your crust it sounds great. Never thought of putting butter in my pumpkin pie but willing to try!
 
Pumpkin soup is also delicious!
