Ingredients
1 graham pie crust1 golden acorn squash (you will need a cup of it for the pie)1 cup Silk2/3 cup sugar1/3 cup brown sugar3 beaten eggs2 Tbsp water1 tsp ground cinnamon1 tsp ground ginger1/2 tsp salt1/4 tsp lemon extract1/4 tsp coconut oil1/4 tsp almond extract
Directions
For lower calories I cut this pie into 16 small servings. Whip cream is a great addition if you like it.

---Preheat oven to 350*---
Cut squash in half, removing stems and seeds
Place face down on baking sheet in preheated oven and cook for 50 to 60 minutes, or until tender
This is a good time to mix up the other ingredients
Remove from oven and let cool
Puree 1 cup squash in a blender

---Preheat oven to 425*---
Combine 1 cup squash, 1 cup silk, 2/3 cup sugar, 1/3 brown sugar, 1 Tbsp water, 1 tsp cinnamon, 1 tsp ginger, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp almond extract, 1/4 tsp lemon extract, 1/4 tsp coconut oil in a large bowl and mix thoroughly until even and smooth.

Pour into pie crust

Place pie in oven at 425* for 10 MINUTES
Reduce heat to 300* and bake for 55 minutes

Pie is done when you insert a knife 1 inch from the crust and it comes out clean

Let cool for at least 15 minutes
Delicious chilled in the fridge too!
