No Fat Pumpkin Recipes!


This recipe is one of my favorites! I cant even remember where I got this recipe but it is definitely worth making. This is also picky husband approved.

Yummy No Fat Pumpkin Bread
1 and 1/2 c Sugar. You can also use splenda if you want. I recommend using both. (1 cup sugar and 1/2 cup splenda)

1 c. canned pumpkin

1/2 c. no sugar added applesauce

1/2 c. water

egg substitute for two eggs

Mix these ingredients together with beater and then add:

1 2/3 c Whole Wheat Flour( or white)I use whole wheat and its good!

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp baking powder

3/4 tsp salt

2-3 tsp pumpkin pie spice to taste( you can also just use 1 tsp cinnamon and 1/2 tsp nutmeg if you don't have the pumpkin pie spice)

Bake at 350 for 65-70 minutes in a large bread loaf pan or 35-40 minutes in a 9 by 13pan. Makes 12 servings. 2 pts per serving.

For best results cover with tin foil when cooling. It will make it really moist. Add chocolate chips or nuts if you want some Pizazz!



Pumpkin Mousse



2 small packages of instant sugar-free vanilla pudding

2 cups of no-fat (skim) milk

1 teaspoon pumpkin spice

15 ounce can of pumpkin

8 ounces of fat-free Cool Whip= 1 Tub

Make pudding first, then fold in ingredients. Refrigerate and then serve! How easy is that!

And best of all, it's only 1.5 points for one cup of mousse.

Want another pumpkin idea?....take your favorite cake mix... add a can of pumpkin to it and whalla! Youve got the easiest cookies ever. Drop spoonfuls of batter on a cookie sheet and bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes or until done. Check out the new lower sugar cake mixes. Those are a great option!
