Every Thanksgiving for as long as I can remember, I looked forward to my mom’s homemade pumpkin pie. The delicious pumpkin and spice flavors capped off the meal perfectly. I adapted her recipe and created these Mini Crustless Pumpkin Pies, which have all the flavor, without the carbs!
To make this dessert low carb, I substituted low carb sweetener for the sugar and heavy cream for the milk. To create perfect portion sizes (and make cleanup a breeze), I used Oxo Good Grips Silicone Baking Cups*. The little “handles” make it easy to move the Low Carb Mini Crustless Pumpkin Pies to a cooling rack.

You can serve these pies right in the silicone baking cups, or remove them just before serving (they come out very easily!) Add whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon for a special touch (but be sure to add to your macros!).
If you don’t have a favorite low carb sweetener, check out Low Carb Sweeteners: Which is Best? to find one that works for you. My current favorite is Lakanto Monk Fruit Sweetener. It bakes well, is a cup for cup replacement for regular sugar, and doesn’t have the aftertaste that some low carb sweeteners do.
