Easy to Make - Preparing this healthy pumpkin pie recipe requires only a handful of simple ingredients and 50-60 minutes of bake time.
- Light & Crispy Texture – The phyllo dough creates a lighter, flakier crust than traditional pie dough, offering a delicate, crispy contrast to the creamy pumpkin filling. It’s perfect for those who want a satisfying crunch without the heaviness of a typical pie crust.
- Healthier Alternative – Phyllo dough is lower in fat and calories compared to regular pie dough, making it a healthier choice for people who are mindful of their diet but still want to indulge in a classic fall dessert.
- Unique Twist on a Classic – This phyllo dough variation adds a creative, modern spin to the traditional pumpkin pie. It’s a fun way for you to impress your guests at holiday gatherings with a dessert that stands out while still delivering the comforting flavors of fall.
Ingredients needed and substitutions:
Phyllo Dough - 4 Sheets of Phyllo dough were used to create the flaky crust for this WW Pumpkin Pie Recipe. If you don't have phyllo dough on hand you could also use:
- Puff Pastry – Puff pastry provides a similar flaky texture but with a bit more richness due to the butter content. It’s an excellent choice for creating a light, layered crust, perfect for both sweet and savory pies.
- Traditional Pie Dough – For a classic pie experience, you can use a homemade or store-bought pie dough. It offers a sturdier, more substantial base compared to phyllo dough, while still delivering that buttery, tender texture many pie lovers enjoy.
- Graham Cracker Crust – This is a fantastic no-fuss alternative for sweet pies like pumpkin or cheesecake. It’s simple to make, adds a sweet and slightly crunchy texture, and complements many creamy fillings well.
Pumpkin Puree - Libby's canned pumpkin puree was used for the creamy pumpkin filling. Feel free to make homemade pumpkin puree if you have extra time.
How to Make a Healthy Pumpkin Pie
1: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F - Coat a 9 inch round pie pan with cooking spray.
2: Cut Phyllo sheets in half. Place one sheet in the pie dish, coat with cooking spray. Place a second phyllo sheet just to the right of the previous sheet. Repeat with 4 additional half sheets to form a circle around the entire pie pan. Use your hands to press the phyllo dough down into the pan and roll the edges.
3: Bake for 10 minutes at 350 degrees F.
4: In a medium bowl whisk together the dry ingredients - sugar, spices, cornstarch and salt.
5: In a separate bowl mix together the wet ingredients - pumpkin, Fat Free evaporated milk, egg whites and vanilla extract.
6: Combine the wet and dry ingredients - mix well.
7: Pour batter into pie crust and bake for 50-60 minutes at 350 degrees F. Cover edges of pie crust with foil to prevent burning.
8: Remove from oven when cooking is complete - cool on a wire rack for 1-2 hours to let set. Once cooled serve with cool whip.

Expert Tips
- Use Brown Sugar for Rich Flavor: Opt for brown sugar in your filling to add a deeper, caramel-like sweetness that complements the pumpkin’s earthy flavor.
- Pumpkin at Room Temperature: Always make sure your pumpkin puree is at room temperature before mixing it with other ingredients to ensure even baking.
- Perfect Pumpkin Pie Spice Blend: Customize your pumpkin pie spice by adjusting the ratios of cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves for a personalized touch.
- Mini Pumpkin Pies Option: Consider making mini pumpkin pies for individual servings that are great for portion control and easy entertaining.
- Extra Tablespoon of Flour: To avoid the problem of mushiness in your filling, add an extra tablespoon of flour. This helps absorb any excess moisture.
- Cover Crust Edges with Aluminum Foil: To prevent the crust from over-browning, use strips of aluminum foil to cover the crust edges after the first 15 minutes of baking.
- Coconut Sugar for a Healthier Sweetener: For a lower-glycemic alternative to brown sugar, you can substitute with coconut sugar, which still provides a rich sweetness.
- Preventing Excess Moisture: Pat your pumpkin puree with paper towels to remove any extra moisture that could lead to a watery filling.
- Check Oven Temperature: Set the oven temperature to 350°F for an even bake. Too high, and you risk overcooking the edges while the center remains unset.
- Baking Time is Key: Watch the baking time closely—typically, it takes about 50-60 minutes. The center should still be slightly wobbly when you remove it from the oven.
- Avoid Overmixing: Overmixing the filling can introduce too much air, leading to cracks as the pie cools. Mix until just combined
- Rest the Pie: Let the pie rest for at least two hours after baking. This helps the filling set fully and ensures clean slices.
- Store Properly: Once the pie is cooled, wrap it in plastic wrap and store it in the fridge to keep it fresh for up to 3 days.
