	In honor of Thanksgiving, we decided to serve up  — our Too-Good-To-Deny Pumpkin Pie! This pie will fool EVERYONE into thinking that they’re eating a fat-filled, high-calorie dessert. Make it and see and save about 267 calories over regular pumpkin pie.  Ingredients: For Crust 2 cups Fiber One bran cereal (original) 1/4 cup light whipped butter or light buttery spread (like Brummel & Brown) 3 tbsp. Splenda No Calorie Sweetener (granulated) 1 tsp. cinnamon For Filling One 15-oz. can pure pumpkin (NOT pumpkin pie filling!) One 12-oz. can evaporated fat-free milk 1/2 cup fat-free liquid egg substitute (like Egg Beaters Original) 3/4 cup Splenda No Calorie Sweetener (granulated) 1/4 cup sugar-free pancake syrup 1 tbsp. pumpkin pie spice 1/2 tsp. cinnamon 1/8 tsp. salt Optional Topping: Fat Free Reddi-wip or Cool Whip Free Directions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine butter with 2 tbsp. water. Microwave until just melted, and set aside. In a blender or food processor, grind Fiber One to a breadcrumb-like consistency. In a medium mixing bowl, combine butter mixture and crumbs with remaining ingredients for crust. Stir until mixed well. Spray an oven-safe 9-inch pie dish lightly with nonstick spray. Evenly distribute crust mixture, using your hands or a flat utensil to firmly press and form the crust. Press it into the edges and up along the sides of the dish. Set aside. In a large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients for the filling. Mix well. Pour mixture into pie crust. The filling may be taller than the crust — trust us, this is okay! Bake pie in the oven for 45 minutes. Allow pie to cool slightly. Refrigerate for several hours (overnight is best). Keep refrigerated until ready to serve. Cut into 8 slices and, if you like, top with Reddi-wip or Cool Whip before serving! MAKES 8 SERVINGS
