When I was on a low-fat diet, I couldn't bear the thought of celebrating Thanksgiving without my favorite pumpkin pie, explains Fort Wayne, Indiana's Mary Alice Dick. So I altered the ingredients and created this thick pudding instead. Now I can enjoy the dessert throughout the year.
Ingredients:
3 egg whites, lightly beaten
2/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
dash ground cloves
1 can (15 ounces) solid-pack pumpkin
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 can (12 ounces) fat-free evaporated milk
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, beat the egg whites, sugar, cinnamon, salt, ginger, nutmeg and cloves. Add pumpkin and vanilla; mix well. Gradually beat in milk. Pour into eight ungreased 6-oz. custard cups.
2. Place the cups in a 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan; add 1 in. of water to pan. Bake at 325° for 35-40 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Serve warm or chill. Yield: 8 servings.
