Ingredients

• 1 medium-sized Spaghetti squash
• 3 large Eggs
• 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 cup Maple syrup
• 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
• 1 as needed Non-stick cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Cut the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds.

Step 3

Place the squash halves cut-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until the flesh is tender and easily shredded with a fork.

Step 4

Allow the squash to cool slightly, then use a fork to gently scrape the flesh into spaghetti-like strands. Measure out 2 cups of the shredded spaghetti squash for the recipe. Set aside.

Step 5

Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C).

Step 6

Grease a 9-inch pie dish lightly with non-stick cooking spray.

Step 7

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, salt, and maple syrup until well combined.

Step 8

In a small bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in 2 tablespoons of water to create a slurry. Stir this into the egg and milk mixture.

Step 9

Fold the 2 cups of cooked spaghetti squash into the custard mixture, ensuring the squash is evenly distributed.

Step 10

Pour the mixture into the prepared pie dish and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 11

Bake in the oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the custard is set and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

Step 12

Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. For best results, chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.

Step 13

Optional: Lightly dust the top with powdered sugar before serving.

Step 14

Slice into 8 portions and serve. Enjoy your Weight Watchers-friendly Spaghetti Squash Custard Pie!
