Dry Nonfat Milk Pumpkin Pie Recipes

SKINNY PUMPKIN PIE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F. In medium bowl, mix flour, 1 teaspoon sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt and the oil with fork until well mixed. Stir in milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with fork until all flour is moistened and pastry almost leaves side of bowl. Shape pastry into a ball, using your hands. Press pastry in bottom and up side of 9-inch glass pie plate; flute as desired or press pastry to top edge of pie plate with fingers or fork.
• In medium bowl, beat egg whites slightly with wire whisk or egg beater. Beat in remaining filling ingredients. Pour filling into pastry-lined pie plate; carefully place on oven rack. Bake 15 minutes.
• Reduce oven temperature to 350°F. Cover edge of pie crust with 2- to 3-inch strip of foil to prevent excessive browning. Bake about 45 minutes longer or until knife inserted in center comes out clean. Cool on cooling rack at least 1 hour before serving. After cooling, pie can remain at room temperature up to an additional 5 hours, then should be covered and refrigerated.

ANY MILK PUMPKIN PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Line pan with pasty, build up high fluted edge.
• Beat remaining ingredients together. Feel free to substitute alternate milks -- Almond, soy, coconut, whole, skim --Note: Rice milk does NOT work for this recipe -- Something about an enzyme that keeps it from thickening!
• Pour into pastry lined pan.
• Bake until knife inserted 1" from side comes out clean. Center may look soft but will set later.
• Bake at 425 degrees for 10 minutes then decrease to 350 degrees for 40-55 minutes. If crust starts to get too dark, cover with foil.
• Serve with sweetened whipped cream if desired.

DRY NONFAT MILK PUMPKIN PIE

Steps:

• Thoroughly mix dry ingredients together (so powdered milk will mix more easily), wisk in water, eggs, and pumpkin. (If you are using a mixer beat until smooth, but I prefer the easy clean-up of a wire wisk.).
• Pour into a 9 inch unbaked pastry shell and bake 15 min at 425 and then 50 to 60 min longer at 350.
• Baking the pie on the bottom shelf will brown the crust nicely on the bottom. The top of the pie does tend to brown a bit more than a regular canned milk recipe, but we prefer this one.
