Last week we mentioned pumpkin pie with whole grain crust in our WGC member newsletter, and several of you emailed us asking for the recipe. Yes, Thanksgiving is behind us, but there’s no reason to have this wonderful dish just once a year. Surprise everyone and have it at Christmas. Or Valentine’s Day. Or just because.

Into every life some desserts must fall, and the best ones are not only delicious but deliver goodness to your body while they delight your taste buds. Pumpkin is packed with Vitamin A – each slice of this pie gives you more than 100% of your daily requirement, plus over 3g of fiber.

Go to our recipe pages to check out this pumpkin pie recipe. True confessions: with 20 of us around the table at Thanksgiving no one got enough of this pie (even with 3 other dessert choices). So I baked another one on Friday for the five of us still hungry for more. Big thanks to the King Arthur Flour Whole Grain Baking cookbook for helping me figure out a whole wheat pie crust recipe that really works, every time! (Cynthia)
