DIRECTIONS

To make crust:

  1.  Heat oven to 350°F.
  2. In a food processor, combine pecans, 1 tablespoon sugar substitute and cinnamon. Process until finely ground. Add the butter (melted) and egg white and pulse a few times to combine; press onto the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan, rounding up to cover the pan seam. Bake until golden and set, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack.

To make filling: 

  1. Reduce oven to 325°F.
  2. Combine cream cheese, 2/3 cup sugar substitute and cream in a large bowl. With an electric mixer at medium speed, beat until smooth. Add pumpkin purée, vanilla and pumpkin pie spice, mixing to combine. Beat in eggs, one at a time, just until combined.
  3. Pour batter over crust. Bake until just set, 45 to 50 minutes. Turn off oven and let stand 10 minutes in the warm oven; transfer to a wire rack and cool completely.
  4. Cover and refrigerate until chilled, 4 hours or overnight. Slice and serve.
