Please post that pumpkin pie recipe. I'm interested in it for the weekend.

Taz, I notice that you are doing really well on Atkins!!! If you are striving for ketosis this may knock you out. Also I don't see why you could not make this without the crust and just bake the filling in those cute little individual ramkin dishes (not that I have them...but you may!)

I have not tried this recipe...if you do...let us me know how it turns out!!

Be yummy with some sugar free whipped cream!!!

If you do decide to bake this in ramekins (little custard cups), bake them in a pan with boiling water around them as the filling really is a custard. This is called a "bain-Marie" for anyone who gives a hoot. The water surrounding the cups allows even cooking.

Thanx Peach, Thanx Ruth. I'm going to try it today and I'm going to use the H20 bath for the ramekins too. I do have several ramekins and they are small enough for what I consider one serving.

I'm not worried about getting out of ketosis as Aspartaine doesn't bother me. I just need something sweet before I go hog wild and do something I'll be really sorry for.

Thanx again

Yummy that sounds good. Wish I had some ramakins or some small dishes I would bake me some too....
