Instructions Pie

  1. Mix cream cheese in a stand up mixer or with electric mixer until a smooth consistency.
  2. Beat in sugar and spice.
  3. Beat in pumpkin. ** You are just incorporating ingredients once the cheese is smooth, do not over beat.
  4.  Beat in one egg at a time
  5.  Mix in 1 Tablespoon of Maple Syrup. Taste test to see if the batter is sweet enough, you can add in 1 more Tablespoon of syrup.
  6. Pour pie batter into the cooled pie crust
  7. Bake for 40 – 45 minutes at 350.  Pie should be cooked well on the sides and a little soft in the center.
  8. Let cool on the counter before refrigerating.

Instructions Whipping cream

  1.  Add whipping cream to a bowl start to beat
  2.  When the cream starts to thicken add in 1 Tablespoon of vanilla pudding. This will stabilize the whipping cream. *Optional add in 1/2 Tablespoon sweetener.
  3. Pipe on to cooled pie.

Caramel Sauce:

Blend 1/4 cup Rabeko Zero Caramel Sauce with 1 teaspoon vanilla pudding to thicken. If using Walden Farms Caramel blend with a little cream to thin. Drizzle on cooled pie.  

Notes:
To ensure that your desserts are not overly sweet, it’s important to use sweeteners sparingly. By using multiple  sweeteners such as Brown Sugar Swerve and Maple Syrup the achieved result is a more balanced taste.

Low carb baking tastes sweeter once it bakes and cools and is always better the next day.
