Fall means pumpkin so let’s make an easy pie that taste amazing. This label letter will break down all the crust options, cream cheese and clean sweeteners.
First, why is pumpkin important?
Pumpkin contains magnesium, which can help lower blood pressure and improve heart health. It also contains magnesium and phosphorus, which are important for bone formation and maintaining bone density. Let’s not forget about the antioxidants which can reduce inflammation and protect cells from damage. Pumpkin contains tryptophan, an amino acid that helps the body produce melatonin and serotonin, which promote good sleep. Lastly, pumpkin has hypoglycemic properties that can help people with diabetes manage their blood sugar.
Ready bake pie crust consist of enriched flour bleached (wheat flour, niacin, ferrous sulfate, thiamin mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid), lard and hydrogenated lard with bha and bht added to protect flavor, water, wheat starch, corn starch, contains 2% or less of: salt, rice flour, xanthan gum, sodium propionate and potassium sorbate (preservatives), citric acid, annatto extract (for color).
