Ingredients
-
2 Cups Chopped yellow or zucchini squash
1 Cup Fat Free Evaporated Milk
9 Tbs Splenda Blend for Baking
1 egg beaten
2 Tbs Butter
3 Tbs Flour
1 tsp Vanilla
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1 egg white (optional)
1 9" frozen pie shell (optional)
Tips
You can omit the pie shell and bake like egg custard for a lower calorie, lower carb version.
Directions
Wash squash but do not dry it off. (The moisture will be needed to cook the squash.) Chop
Put damp chopped squash in a microwave safe bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Cook on high for 7 to 11 minutes until very tender. Allow to sit for 3 minutes before removing the wrap. Drain if necessary. Refrigerate for at least 10 minutes to cool.
Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Combine cooled squash, evaporated milk, Splenda, whole egg, butter, flour and vanilla in a blender and puree until smooth.
Beat the egg white until frothy and brush on the bottom of the pie shell. This should prevent a soggy crust.
Pour the squash mixture into the pie shell. (it will be thin) Sprinkle with cinnamon and nutmeg.
Bake for 60 mins or until a knife comes out clean.
