  1. 4.5 stars...actually! This pie was a surprising treat! The texture was identical to a normal pumpkin pie recipe. I even cut back to 1/2 cup of sugar and it was still plenty sweet. My only complaint was that the batter was too much for a 9-inch pie pan by quite a bit. Other than that - great Holiday alternative!
     
  2. Fabulous pumpkin pie thanks for low fat calorie saving recipe that tastes fattening, Jersey Girl
     
  3. My family & I did not care for this pie. You could taste the OJ & they didn't like the texture. We all prefer the typical pumpkin pie recipe with the only change of Splenda to replace the sugar so that the diabetics in the family can enjoy it as well.
     
  4. What a pleasant surpise this pie was. I was quite concerned because I ALWAYS make Libby's tradional but daughter and I are both dieting and this was the year to try something new. I used frozen pie crusts and covered the edges with foil. It took over 30 minutes over the posted cooking time. I lost track but just kept checking till it was "set" and the knife clean. It could be my oven but regardless the pie came out great. It is a healthy keeper for us. Thank you so much for sharing it.
