Easy Healthy Mini Pumpkin Pies with Cinnamon Cardamom Streusel

Gourmet Done Skinny
Delicious skinny pumpkin pie in a phyllo shell with cinnamon cardamom streusel. Makes an elegant and relatively quick dessert for a party, Thanksgiving or Christmas. Make the filling the day before, then fill the shells when you're ready to serve or a few hours before. This is a great alternative to the decadent calorie laden traditional pumpkin pie and guests can control their portions. The filling will keep 4-5 days in refrigerator.

Ingredients
  

Filling:

  • 1 egg
  • 15 oz can of pumpkin
  • 3/4 c. 6 oz low fat evaporated milk
  • 2 T. sugar
  • 3 T. brown sugar
  • 1 t. cinnamon
  • 1/8 t. ginger or use about 1 t. fresh
  • 1/4 t. allspice
  • 1/4 t. nutmeg
  • 1/4 t. cloves
  • 1/4 t. kosher salt
  • 1 1/2 t. vanilla

Topping Ingredients:

  • 1 cup oats quick or regular
  • 3 T. brown sugar
  • 2 t. cinnamon
  • 1/8 t. cardamom optional
  • 2 1/2 T. butter melted

Shells:

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • Mix together first 12 ingredients (through vanilla).
  • Pour into a 8x8 ungreased baking dish.
  • In a small bowl combine topping ingredients.
  • Sprinkle over pumpkin mixture.
  • Bake for about 35 minutes.
  • Cool. Then put in refrigerator until ready to serve.  These Mini Pumpkin Pies taste better the next day or when the filling is completely chilled.
  • When ready to serve, scoop about 1 heaping tablespoon per shell into mini phyllo shells. Sometimes it's easier to scoop, then mold the filling into the shell with your fingers. Garnish with a pecan half cut in half. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Notes

  • I like to make the filling the day before I want to serve it. Then on the day I'm serving it, I place the filling in the shells, decorate with a pecan and store in refrigerator until dessert time. Don't leave the filled shells overnight in the refrigerator or the shells won't be crunchy.
  • You can also scoop the filling into dessert bowls. The Freestyle Smart Point count is 1 point per 1 tablespoon.
