The Ultimate Skinny Pumpkin Pie
Pumpkin pie, the queen of fall treats. This pie bursting with flavors of seasonal spices evoke the autumnal essence. That is why without a doubt, Thanksgiving is never complete without a slice of pumpkin pie. I prepared this pie from scratch entirely with healthy ingredients, but with the same flaky crispy crust and spiced creamy filling. Enjoy it guilt-free!
