Low Carb Pumpkin Pie

It’s officially Fall, my favorite time of year. Fall in Florida brings a nice breeze and much (MUCH) less rain. Do you know what else fall brings? I bet you do.. Pumpkin pie! Well, low carb pumpkin pie to be exact.

It’ll cure your cravings for a healthy, yet decadent creamy pumpkin pie with the same memorable flavors as grandma’s recipe. I know I’ve been craving a yummy pumpkin pie for quite a few weeks and now that it’s officially Fall I finally have an excuse.

This recipe has a delicious almond based pie crust which packs some protein and fiber. I choose pumpkin puree over the pumpkin pie filling because it has far less carbs and still brings the necessary pumpkin base. Depending on your pumpkin pie preferences, you can add cloves or ginger.
