Are you planning to attend a family meal this Thanksgiving? This is the time of year when so many of us are hosting or heading out to family festivities. These festivities are usually surrounded by delicious food. If you’ve been asked to host Thanksgiving or bring a dish to a family gathering for Thanksgiving then you’ll love this pumpkin pie recipe made with Stevita.
Tips, Tricks, and Hints for Cooking with Stevita
I’m sure you’re wondering what’s the difference between sugar and stevita. While many have started to compare the two, this comparison is much like comparing honey to molasses. While stevita is sweet, it’s not as sweet as sugar.
While many people have started using Stevita Naturals in their favorite dessert recipes, much like this pumpkin pie recipe, you’ll find that stevita doesn’t brown or caramelize like sugar. Stevita also won’t work well for some baked goods as it doesn’t add the same volume and textured as refined sugars add to let’s say your favorite cake recipe. This means you’ll have to adapt some of your favorite desserts or use sugar-free recipes found on Stevita Naturals website.
Baking with Stevita
I’m excited to share a Stevita friendly recipe today that you can serve at Thanksgiving for a delightful side. Pumpkin pie has always been a staple in my family for Thanksgiving, but this year I’m making it with Stevita. I love that you can bake with Stevita without adding more calories to your Thanksgiving desserts. Stevita offers a wide variety of zero-calorie sweeteners, therefore zero guilt when you take a bit into this delicious pumpkin pie.
What can I do with Stevita Naturals?
While you can make this delicious pumpkin pie recipe to bring during your Thanksgiving feast, there are other things you can do with Stevita Naturals. Here are just a few additional ways you can sneak Stevita Naturals into your daily life, thus cutting out addictive refined sugars:
- A few drops of Stevita Naturals clear liquid or measured packets can be placed in water to add a slight flavor change to a glass of water.
- Lemon, vanilla, and other natural flavors will help add a depth of taste when using Stevita naturals in various dishes.
- Stevia Naturals extracts also work well with dairy and non-dairy products, such as cream cheese, milk, and soft cheese to add a slight taste change to your favorite treats.
If you’re looking to use Stevita Naturals to curb your refined sugar habit, then I highly recommend you do it slowly. The best way to use Stevita Naturals to curb your refined sugar addiction is to slowly sneak in some stevia with less sugar each time. Eventually, your body will naturally reduce its cravings for refined sugar and in turn, feel healthier being sugar-free.

Oh pumpkin pie is my fave type of pie for Thanksgiving. This looks delish!
I’ve got an amazing pumpkin pie recipe that was my Mom’s so I would never use another one. This is a good recipe for those who are trying to cut down on their sugar intake.
I love using Stevita Naturals. They have some of the best stevia products. I am obsessed with their hard candies.
This Pumpkin Pie Recipe will be perfect for our Thanksgiving meal. I am sure my family and relatives will totally love this!
Your pumpkin pie looks so good. Now I can’t wait for Thanksgiving. I always enjoy a good pie. Hope you have a happy Thanksgiving.
I am in heaven! This pie is exactly what I need right now with a huge cup of coffee!
Now this sounds like such a delicious pudding idea! I have to admit I do like a good pudding and I’m always up for trying a new one.
I personally am not a fan of pumpkin anything. However, my daughter loves it. I’ll have to make one for her in a few days. She will be so excited.
I’ve always thought baking with Stevia would change the consistency of pies or desserts. This pumpkin pie looks delicious and good to know baked goods turn out as good as with sugar, only healthier!
That pie looks delicious! I need to check Stevia out because my oldest daughter has been looking for sugar free options.
Wow,you had me at pumpkin pie! I love to eat it but never made one. This inspires me to try.
Thank you for sharing this recipe with Stevia! I’ve always wondered how to edit recipes when using a sugar substitute.
