The Diet Chef is turning one tomorrow!
Hooray!
I can't believe I've been doing this healthy cooking thing for a year now. Seriously, I can't.
The Diet Chef has changed so much since I came out with my very first recipe video last Novemeber...grilled cheese.
Agh, it's cringe worthy I know. I think the part where the ingredients are just sitting on the counter is so exciting, don't you? Haha.
Instead of doing the typical birthday cake recipe, I thought it'd be kind of fun to make healthy pumpkin pie. Plus, the timing couldn't be any better, it's fall, and Thanksgiving is now just a week away here in the United States.
Now, I do realize that I've done quite a few pumpkin recipes lately, but this pumpkin pie is the last one for the season. So with that being said lets go out with a bang!
And by the way...
Thank you guys so much for being a part of my passion project. I hope you've enjoyed the recipes from year one, I sure have had fun making them for you!
Don't forget, if you make this pumpkin pie snap a pic and tag it on Instagram #thedietchef

The first ingredient you have listed is just 420grams, but you don't say what the ingredient is. :(
I made your banana cake but I used sweet potatoes instead - turned out amazing!!! I don't take pics because I'm not sure how to upload them to you.
Thanks for the heads up! I fixed it...it was supposed to say pure pumpkin. That cake is awesome :D Glad it worked out well for you too!
How many slices are you cutting to get these macros per slice? I come from a large family & there is no standard cutting portion. In the recipe, we carefully measured everything else, now I want to enjoy, but not too much of course. Thank you.
The macros are based on 8 equal sized slices! I hope you enjoyed the pie :D
Hey Joe!
Baked this yesterday, and it turned out really well! Thanks for another great recipe!
Took a photo of my pie and tagged you on Instagram so you can have a look! It's not quite as pretty as yours, but hey practice makes perfect right? (As if I needed an excuse to bake this again!)
Can't wait to try more of your recipes! (Just need to find a way to fit everything I want to try into my macros, heh.)
Cheers
Sharon
I'm so happy to hear the pumpkin pie turned out well Sharon! I couldn't see your pie on instagram for some reason. Did you tag me in it @the.diet.chef or did you use the #thedietchef ? Just curious, because I looked for it. :D Hope you're doing great!
I did both, but it looks like I've been foiled by my own IG privacy settings! D'oh! Sorry about that!
If you follow me on IG @sharon_lim_ea I think you'll be able to see the photo!
Here is the URL for my version of your pumpkin pie:

Joe is there a substitute for the De Novos white cake protein powder? I am in Canada and need to make this for Saturday not a lot of time to get special ingredients
If you've got some kind of vanilla protein powder at all at home should be ok! Happy Thanksgiving :)
