A healthiful way to enjoy the holidays, this pumpkin pie is Amy Adams' guilt-free favorite
ingredients:
Filling
1 cup organic pumpkin puree
3 egg whites
1 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1 1/2 scoops of vanilla protein powder
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 tbsp Splenda brown sugar blend

Pie crust
9 whole graham crackers
2 tbsp coconut butter
3 tbsp egg whites
1/2 cup old fashioned oats
3 tablespoons firmly packed dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon salt
directions:

Preheat oven to 350°.

Process crackers in food processor until finely ground. You can also place crackers in plastic bag and crush using a rolling pin (or in my house, a wine bottle). Combine crumbs, coconut butter, egg whites, oats, brown sugar, vanilla and salt, stirring until crumbs are moistened. Press mixture evenly into 9 inch pie pan. Blind bake for about 7minutes or until firm. Let the crust cool completely before filling.

Combine all the ingredients for the pie filling and blend thoroughly with a mixer on medium speed. Fill the pie crust and bake for 10 15 minutes or until set. Knife inserted to center should come out clean.
