Here is an old-fashioned favorite with a new profile: fat free yogurt replaces the traditional cream filling and lime adds zesty flavor. 1/8 of the pie is 3 POINTS. From the Weight Watchers cookbook. Ingredients:
12 low-fat honey graham crackers, made into crumbs (3 full sheets) |
1 tablespoon butter |
1 teaspoon water |
4 bananas (thinly sliced on the diagonal) |
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice |
2 ounces unflavored gelatin (or standard size) |
1/2 cup cold water |
1/3 cup sugar |
1 1/2 cups plain fat-free yogurt |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
grated lime zest (optional) |
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees; spray a 9-inch pie plate with nonstick spray.
2. In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, butter and water with a fork.
3. Press into the bottom and up the sides of the pie plate. Bake until firm, 3-5 minutes; cool.
4. In another medium bowl, toss the bananas with the lime juice; reserve 1 cup. Arrange the remaining bananas over the crust.
5. In a small saucepan, sprinkle the gelatin over the cold water; let stand 2 minutes. Add the sugar; cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture boils and the gelatin and sugar dissolve, 2-3 minutes.
6. Remove from the heat; whisk in the yogurt and vanilla.
7. Pour into the pie plate. Arrange the reserved bananas over the pie; sprinkle with lime zest.
8. Refrigerate, covered with plastic wrap, until chilled, 2-3 hours.
