Lite Pecan Pie
Ingredients
This pie has almost a cookie-like texture and great flavor.
Crust:
1 1/4 cups graham crackers, crushed
1 tablespoon light margarine
1 tablespoon cold water
Filling:
3/4 cup egg substitute (or 3 eggs)
1 cup sugar substitute for baking, such as Splenda
1/2 cup light margarine, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups pecan pieces
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. To prepare crust, combine crushed graham crackers, margarine and water and press into bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie plate. Bake crust for 5 minutes. Remove crust from oven and set aside. To prepare filling, mix egg substitute, sugar substitute, and melted margarine. Add vanilla and mix. Add pecan pieces and mix.
Pour filling into crust and bake for 35 minutes at 350 degrees. Let cool and serve at room temperature. Serves 8.
