To state the obvious, crock pots (slow cookers) are a great invention. One of our wedding gifts was a programmable crock pot, so no more ruined dinners when my workday runs late. I've typically used my crock pot for making chicken, beef, stews, etc., but I came across an interesting recipe for pumpkin pudding. This past weekend I tried it out and both my husband and I are loving it. It tastes like crust-less pumpkin pie, and since it's made with less sugar and eggs, it's lower cal.
- 1 (15 ounce) can solid pack pumpkin (not pumpkin pie)
- 1 (12 ounce) can fat-free evaporated milk
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup biscuit/baking mix ( used Bisquick "Healthy Heart")
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 2 Tbsp tub spread, like Brummel & Brown, melted
- 2 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- In a large bowl, combine the first eight ingredients. Transfer to a slow cooker coated with nonstick cooking spray. Cover and cook on low for 3-4 hours or until a thermometer reads 160 degrees F. Serve warm or cold.
