Pumpkin Pie Spiced Desserts That Won’t Spike Your Blood Sugar

Pumpkin pie is a holiday staple, but let’s be real, most traditional recipes are loaded with sugar. That can send your blood sugar soaring and leave you feeling sluggish instead of satisfied. As a dietitian, I recommend putting a healthier spin on classics so you can enjoy the flavors you love and feel good about it.

This version swaps in nutrient-dense ingredients and keeps sugar to a minimum, without sacrificing the cozy, spiced flavor you crave. 

Why Try Low-Sugar Pumpkin Pie

There are many benefits to lowering your sugar intake. Here’s why this pumpkin pie is different:

  • Lower sugar, more balance: We cut back on added sugar and use just enough natural sweetness to keep it delicious. This helps keep blood sugar stable, making it easier to manage portions and cravings. 
  • Fiber-rich pumpkin: Pumpkin is naturally high in fiber, which slows digestion and helps support steady blood sugar.
  • Protein boost: A little protein in the filling helps balance the carbs, making it a more blood sugar-friendly treat.
  • Better-for-you crust options: You can use a whole-grain or almond flour crust for extra nutrients and fiber.

Low-Sugar Pumpkin Pie Recipe

Servings: 8

Ingredients

  • 1 ¾ cups pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¾ cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
  • ¼ cup maple syrup or honey (adjust to taste)
  • 2–3 Tbsp coconut sugar or monk fruit sweetener (optional, for added sweetness)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ tsp cinnamon
  • ½ tsp ground ginger
  • ¼ tsp nutmeg
  • Pinch of cloves and salt
  • 1 pre-baked whole-grain or almond flour pie crust

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin, eggs, almond milk, maple syrup, sweetener (if using), vanilla, and spices until smooth.
  3. Pour filling into pre-baked crust.
  4. Bake for 45–50 minutes, or until the center is just set.
  5. Cool before serving.

Dietitian Tip

Pair your slice with a dollop of Greek yogurt or coconut cream. The added protein or fat helps slow digestion even more, keeping your blood sugar steady.

If you struggle with feeling bloated after eating high fiber foods, consider adding digestive enzymes like HUM’s Flatter Me to help optimize your post-pie digestion.
