Pumpkin Pie (1 Piece (1/8 Of 9 Inches Dia))

Have a smaller slice of pumpkin pie and avoid adding whipped cream sweetened with sugar or extra toppings.

Eat the pie after a balanced meal containing protein and non-starchy vegetables, rather than on an empty stomach.

Pair the dessert with a small serving of plain Greek yogurt, eggs, or a handful of almonds to slow digestion.

Choose a pumpkin pie recipe with less added sugar and a thinner crust, or make individual mini portions.

Take an easy 10–20 minute walk after eating to help reduce the post-meal rise.

Avoid sugary drinks, sweet coffee beverages, or alcohol alongside the pie; choose water or unsweetened tea instead.
