6g Coconut Flour
3g Pumpkin Spice
3g Ground Cinnamon
5g Zero Cal Sweetener of your choice (If you use the liquid stevia like I use, add 2 droppers full)
45g Plain Non Fat Greek Yogurt
80g Egg Whites
Ingredients for Protein Icing:
10g Flex Vanilla Whey Protein Powder (or protein of your choice) Code “FDL” saves you 15% on proteincookiebutter.com
3g Coconut Flour
2g Zero Cal Sweetener of your choice (If you use the liquid stevia like I use, add 2 droppers full)
30g Plain Non Fat Greek Yogurt
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Add your dry pumpkin ingredients into one bowl and mix. Add your pumpkin and greek yogurt to another bowl and mix. Then add your dry mix to your wet and mix together. Once thoroughly mixed, add to the freezer for 5 minutes.
2. Now take off the crust of your bread slices. Add your egg whites to a bowl and mix in some cinnamon and pumpkin spice.
3. Take one slice and dip the edges into the egg whites. Then add your pumpkin pie filling to the middle. Take another slice and dip the edges into the egg whites. Then add to top of the slice with the filling on it and press down the edges. Then crimp shut the edges with a fork and then take your pizza cutter to slice off any of the uneven edges. Repeat this process for all 6 pies.
4. Then add your pies to your oven safe pan. Dip your fingers into the egg whites and rub on the top of the pies. This will act as an egg wash to help golden your pies. Add to the oven for 12-15 minutes.
5. Take your dry protein icing ingredients and add to a bowl and mix. Then add in 20ml cold water and mix. Then add your Greek yogurt and mix that in. Mix like crazy till super smooth.
6. Once pies are done, let cool for a bit on cooling rack. Then add icing and enjoy!
