Recipes: Party Pumpkin Pie

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup gingersnap crumbs
• 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
• 2 Tbsp margarine, melted
• Nonstick cooking spray
• 1 egg
• 2 egg whites
• 1 16-oz can pumpkin
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 2 Tbsp molasses (blackstrap or mild)
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp nutmeg
• 12 oz evaporated skim milk

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 ° F. Mix the gingersnap and graham cracker crumbs together with the margarine. Lightly coat a nonstick 10-inch pie pan with nonstick cooking spray. Press the crumb mixture into the bottom of the pie pan and bake for 7 minutes. Let the crust cool on a wire rack. Leave the oven on.

Whisk together the remaining ingredients until well blended. Pour the mixture into the partially baked pie crust. Bake for 40 - 50 minutes, or until the center of the pie does not jiggle when you put on an oven mitt and gently shake the pan.
