Heather, I just tried making your 5 Minute Pumpkin Pie . I couldn't believe how much it tastes like the fat-full, rich version. I don't think anyone would even know if I substituted it at Thanksgiving. I made it without crust this time, next time I'll try the low fat crust recipe I posted here last week.

Karin, thanks for sharing your experience! I'm planning to make it on Thanksgiving, too, and I was wondering if anyone here had tried it. I can't wait to have pumpkin pie again!!

Hey Karin - nice to see you! 
I made this last Thanksgiving and it was a big hit! Everyone liked this better than the cheesecake someone else had brought.

Ok. So I'm going to make the 5min Pumpkin Pie tomorrow..and I'm really excited! It's been my favorite since before I can remember. My question is..Karin or anyone else..have you tried the low-fat pastry crust? Do you like it better than a grahm crust? Thanks in advance..

Check back later tonight for a critique by my husband who hates anything "healthy".......lol. The crust tasted good to me, but we'll see what he says. I did add 1TB of water to the recipe though and I sprayed it with butter flavored Pam before I baked it (I liked Mags' idea).

Well, it wasn't as flaky as I would have liked. Part of the problem is that I don't think I rolled it out thin enough, it was kind of tough on the bottom AND maybe I shouldn't have added the 1 TB water. A pastry site said: a minimum of ice water is added until the dough barely comes together".
