Although I am going to make a low carb crustless pumpkin pie today (thanks to reading about this "weird mash up" ). LIke Corky, I do love pumpkin pie.

ive not seen chocolate hummus but I think theres a difference between chocolate and pumpkin. We can eat chocolate on its own. Its less fun to eat pumpkin or squash on its own and its better when cooked or blended with other things.

Is it a shock that a person who despises avocados and children also dislikes hummus?

Does it have sugar or a sugar sub?

I'm still firmly against any kind of dessert hummus. Not judging anyone else, but it won't enter my house.
If there was cooked pumpkin blended in, without all the spices and sugar, then it's just hummus with squash. I could probably live with that. But not pumpkin pie.

The thought of pumpkin pie hummus made me gag a little bit. Then, I Googled it. Apparently it's a thing.

At any rate, I'm using pumpkin. Pumpkin pie mix has a lot of sugar in it and therefore wouldn't be low carb.

What do you use to sweeten your canned pumpkin in order to make a pie if not brown sugar? I assumed that you were not using pumpkin pie mix because it looks like you make things from scratch.

Splenda. I'll let you know how it turns out.

As someone who tries to understand your gaobestnese postings, I find this pretty ironic.

hmmm. yes do report. I know the point of sugar in baked goods is not just to sweeten but also to add moisture. I assume this is special splenda for baking so it doesn't give a weird taste when heated.

Google, my friend, Google. Hint, the first ingredient is carbonated water.
