Secret Recipe Club.

Happy Monday y'all!

It's Thanksgiving week and I couldn't be more thrilled, so thrilled that at this very moment I am taking an anatomy test so I can get my Thanksgiving week started. Why do we even have school at all during Thanksgiving week? Psh...they should enforce this no school rule during holiday season. It would give us more time to bake and cook, and of course eat pie!

I am also super excited that Group C for Secret Recipe Club fell during Thanksgiving week because, obviously, this gave me 1 billion more reasons to make a Thanksgiving themed dish. Lucky for me, my secret blogger for this month was Debbie from Debbie Does Dinner...Healthy and Low Calorie. I know, right? Debbie sounds like my kind of blogger! Debbie, a mother of three, develops recipes that are healthier, and most importantly, don't sacrifice taste. I definitely feel like Debbie is on top her recipe game, I mean, seriously...these Maple Pecan Candied Sweet Potatoes...oh mah gawd...and a freaking Peanut Butter Dip...she speaks my language. I mean, how was I supposed to choose a recipe from her bomb.com extensive recipe index?

Lucky for me, I found the recipe that spoke to my little Thanksgiving sweet spot...Crustless Pumpkin Pie. Now, when it comes to pie, I am a crust girl...all the way. Like, I love all the crust(esses) all of them...I will literally take a key lime pie with a thick graham cracker crust and deconstruct that pie like no body's business. I go weak in the knees for a crispy crust. However, this crustless pumpkin pie business was speaking to me. Plus, if I want crust, I will just bake myself a crust and eat it. Duh. Let me  tell you, people. You won't miss the crust on this pie.

It's all about the pumpkin people.

Then we add lots of other good stuff...almond milk, eggs,

and o.m.g. pumpkin pie spice because what is a pumpkin pie without pumpkin pie spice?

Nothing I tell you...absolutely nothing. 

This pie is all flavor, and sweetened with Truvia...although you could also use your fave sugar substitute...like stevia or something.

Ummm I could have just demolished the filling before baking.

Holy crustless pumpkin pie, Batman!

I'm not even joking.

Best crustless pumpkin pie I have ever had.

 Seriously, it is one of the most flavorful pumpkin pies I have ever tasted and it's healthy! Like 500 calories in the entire pie healthy. That's what's up!

Big thanks to Debbie for the recipe.

Now, do me a favor and make this for Thanksgiving...mmmmm kay?

Oh, and just a tip: this pie is totally acceptable for breakfast. I ate the entire pie over 3 breakfast(es). :)
