Ingredients
  

  • Crust:
  • 1 c. almond flour
  • 2 T melted butter
  • 2 T gentle sweet
  • 1 t. cinnamon
  • Filling:
  • 1 c. pumpkin
  • 8 oz 1/3 fat cream cheese (softened
  • 1/2 c. cottage cheese
  • 2/3 c sweetener you can use less according to your sweetness preference
  • 1 t. cinnamon
  • 1 T. pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 t. vanilla
  • 1 T. Gelatin
  • 1 c. water

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350
  2. Use the base of your springform pan to cut a circle out of parchment paper
  3. Place the parchment paper in the bottom of the springform pan & spray with olive oil or coconut oil
  4. In a small bowl, combine the almond flour, butter, gentle sweet, and cinnamon with a fork
  5. Put the crust in the preheated oven for 7 minutes (after it comes out, put the baked crust still inside the springform pan on a plate and let it cool down in the fridge or freezer
  6. Boil the cup of water (you can do this on the stove or simply microwave for 5 minutes)- the water will boil down to about 3/4 c.
  7. Meanwhile, combine all of the filling ingredients (except the water and gelatin) in a blender (I love my ninja!) and blend well, using a spatula to scrape the sides. Set aside.
  8. Once the water is boiled, little by little sprinkle to gelatin into the boiling water constantly whisking it in to avoid any clumps
  9. Pour the gelatin mixture into the rest of the filling mixture and blend well (you can wait until the gelatin mixture cools a bit if you want, but don't wait too long)
  10. Pour the filling into a cooled down crust
  11. Refrigerate for 3-4 hours
  12. Using a butter knife or small knife, separate the pie from the springform pan by cutting along the edges of the pie before releasing the springform pan
  13. Serve with whipped cream :)
  14. It's even better the next day!
You can also make this crustless by simply pouring the filling into glass dessert cups & keeping them refrigerated for when you want a pumpkin treat:)
