Holiday flavors should always be celebrated, this dessert has all the flavor and jubilee with less of the blood sugar roller coaster. You'll find it balances your pumpkin pie craving without all the extra carbs and calories the crust brings. I always top it with extra whipped cream and a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice or fresh ground cinnamon.

Why This Recipe Works for Blood Sugar Balance
Increasing the eggs in this recipe helps to increase the protein content. The protein content is also increased by adding protein powder and collagen peptides. I’ve also decreased the sugar content and replaced with maple syrup instead of the typical granulated or brown sugar.
Why This Recipe Works in Your Kitchen
This recipe sets more like a custard. The large amount of eggs helps this recipe set. You can skip the extra dish in the oven with water if you don't mind cracks at the top of the "pie". I personally like when things have imperfections and look homemade.
