Skinny Coconut Pumpkin Pie

If you’re looking for a healthy dessert recipe and you’re thinking about a healthy pumpkin pie recipe, this is for you! Ah, just seeing the word pumpkin makes us smile! It’s one (of our many- oy! 😉 ) food loves! Yes, pumpkin is a bit of an obsession for us. Although it started with our mom’s pumpkin pie, it wasn’t long before it was one of our favorite frozen yogurt flavors and before we were mixing it in everything. We love its’ creamy texture— so awesome for making waistline friendly recipes, especially given that it’s so low in calories (only 40 calories in ½ cup)! We still can’t get over that pumpkin is actually a veggie, so you get fiber and loads of powerful phytonutrients to calm your insides and to ultimately keep you looking more youthful, yet it’s ideal and rich-tasting in crave-worthy treats. As you know we’ve been whipping up waistline friendly recipes using pumpkin for quite some time!
