"As Marissa noted earlier, today is National Pi Day&amp;amp;#8212;I mean, if you have a day of the year that happens to be 3/14 (3.14), is there a better excuse to whip up a pie? Or four, for that matter! These are recipes for healthy pies, courtesy of Anthony Stewart, executive chef of Pritikin Longevity Center and Spa. For each, he&amp;#x27;s swapped in some surprising, good-for-you ingredients, which still promise a yummy result. Pumpkin Pie A slice of traditional pumpkin pie often has 5 grams of saturated fat? That&amp;#x27;s the same amount that you&amp;#x27;ll find in a cheeseburger. This version is still filled with plenty of pumpkin flavor&amp;amp;#8212;and zero saturated fat. Ingredients Half of large butternut squash (cut squash in half), seeds removed 2 cups canned solid-pack pumpkin (no additives) 3 egg whites, beaten until stiff peaks form 1 tsp. lime juice 1 tsp. cinnamon powder 1/4 tsp. cardamom powder 1/2 cup soy milk 3 Tbsp. Splenda 2 tsp. vanilla extract 2 cups low-sodium, fat-free corn flake cereal Directions Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place butternut squash half in a nonstick baking pan in oven, skin side up. Cook until fork-tender, about 25 minutes. Scoop out cooked &amp;quot;meat&amp;quot; with spoon, and place it and 1 cup of the canned pumpkin in a food processor. Puree. In a large bowl, combine the squash/pumpkin mixture, remaining pumpkin, egg whites, lime juice, cinnamon, cardamom, soy milk, Splenda, and vanilla. In food processor, grind corn flakes until they are the size of peppercorns. Lightly spray bottom of pie baking pan (8 inches in diameter) with Pam. To make crust, press corn flakes into bottom of pan. Fill pie pan with pumpkin mixture, and bake in oven at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Cherry Pie This recipe uses fiber-rich oats as a topping. Ingredients 8 cups frozen pitted cherries 4 Tbsp. apple juice concentrate 2 Tbsp. lemon juice 6 Tbsp. cornstarch 2 Tbsp. vanilla extract 2 cups oats Directions Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, mix all ingredients except oats. Place mixture in baking dish. Pour oats on top. Bake for 25 minutes. Let cool and serve. Peach Cobbler As with the pumpkin pie, the crust of this cobbler is made with fat-free corn flakes. Ingredients 1/2 pound frozen peeled peaches, sliced 1/4 cups date sugar 1 pinch cinnamon powder 1/2 nutmeg 1/2 tsp vanilla extract 2 oz corn flakes, fat-free, no salt added Directions Grind corn flakes with 1 Tbsp. water (added slowly) and layer on bottom of baking pan. Bake for 2 minutes at 350 degrees. Remove from oven and let cool. Mix remainder of ingredients together and spoon softly over crust and bake for 20 to 25 minutes at 350-degrees. Let cool before cutting. Spiced Apple Pie The surprising ingredient here? Shredded wheat! Ingredients 5 Red Delicious or Fuji apples, peeled, cored, and cut into wedges 1 Tbsp. water 2 tsp. cornstarch 1 tsp. apple pie spice (a simple blend of cinnamon, nutmeg and allspice) Juice of 1/2 lemon (1 Tbsp.) 2 cups low-sodium, fat-free corn flakes Topping 1/4 cup crushed shredded wheat Pinch of ground cinnamon Directions Combine apples, water, cornstarch, spice, and lemon juice in a medium mixing bowl. Lightly spray bottom of pie baking pan (8 inches in diameter) with Pam. To make crust, press corn flakes into bottom of pan. Fill pie pan with mixture, and bake in oven at 350 degrees.
