Alliterations aside, this pumpkin pie is made with a protein powder and oat flour crust, and features a filling of pumpkin puree, liquid monk fruit, and no added sugars. For some healthy fats, mix some chopped nuts into the filling, or sprinkle on top of the pie.

CRUST
- 1 medium (110 g) Banana, overripe
- 1/2 scoop (15 g) Whey protein powder, unflavored
- 1/2 scoop (15 g) Casein protein powder, unflavored
- 1/4 cup (23 g) Oat flour
- 1 tbsp (8 g) Cornstarch
- 1 tsp (5 g) Liquid monk fruit
- 1 tsp (3 g) Cinnamon
- 1 tsp (6 g) Baking powder

FILLING
- 15 oz (425 g) Pumpkin puree
- 2 large (101 g) Egg
- 1/4 cup (60 g) Water
- 1/2 tbsp (4.5 g) Cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp (3 g) Salt
- 1/4 tsp (0.5 g) Ginger, ground
- 1/4 tsp (1 g) Nutmeg, ground
- 1/8 tsp (0.25 g) Cloves, ground
- 1/4 cup (56 g) Plain nonfat greek yogurt
- 1 tsp (5 g) Liquid monk fruit
- 1/2 tsp (2.5 g) Vanilla extract
- 2 scoop (60 g) Whey protein powder, unflavored

1. Preheat your oven to 350F. Liberally grease a 9" metal pie pan with oil spray

2. In a large bowl, mash your banana with the back of a fork. Mix in the rest of the crust ingredients - whey, casein, oat flour, cornstarch, liquid monk fruit/stevia, cinnamon, baking powder, and optionally a dash of butter extract

3. Spread the crust onto the bottom of the pan with a silicone spatula. Make sure the crust is even, and spread to all sides

4. In your large bowl, mix together the filling ingredients (pumpkin puree, eggs, water, cinnamon, ginger, salt, nutmeg, cloves, yogurt, liquid monk fruit or stevia, vanilla, and whey). You can add a little butter extract to the filling if you want (as well as the crust)

5. Bake in a 350F oven for 25 minutes. Lower heat to 300F, and bake for an additional 15 minutes

6. Let cool completely before slicing, at least a few hours in the fridge to totally set. Optionally, dust the top of the pie with some cinnamon
