Hi Stoogy!

Did you remember to subtract the fiber from the carb count or perhaps get a can of pumpkin pie filling instead of pure canned pumpkin? The kind I have (Libby's brand) has 9 grams of carb per 1/2 cup with 5 grams of fiber for a net carb count of 4 grams per 1/2 cup. There are 3.5 servings per can for a total of 14 grams of carb for the whole can. Throw in a couple of eggs for 1.5 grams of carb 1 cup of cream for 6.5 grams of carb, 3/4 cup of Splenda for 18 grams of carb and some spices and you have pumpkin pie without the crust for a total of 40 grams of carb. Six servings would be 6.6 grams of carb each, 8 servings would be 5 grams of carb each. HTH
