So the countdown begins.  (Clearly I am not hosting Thanksgiving or else my countdown would've begun like 3 months ago)  
If you are like me and are going to be an innocent, bystanding guest (in a good way) become more likable and bring this Low(er) Fat Pecan Freakin' Pie.  It's amazing, friends.  Truly steal-my-heart amazing.  I've made it now for three or fours years, and my popularity has grown exponentially.  Ja.
Pecan Oatmeal Pie
- 1/2 (15-ounce) package refrigerated pie dough (or make your own, of course)
 - Cooking spray
 - 1 cup packed dark brown sugar
 - 1 cup light corn syrup
 - 2/3 cup regular oats
 - 1/2 cup chopped pecans
 - 2 tablespoons butter, melted
 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
 - 1/4 teaspoon salt
 - 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
 - 2 large egg whites, lightly beaten
 
- Preheat oven to 325°.
 - Roll dough into an 11-inch circle. Fit into a 9-inch pie plate coated with cooking spray. Fold edges under; flute.
 - Combine brown sugar and remaining ingredients, stirring well with a whisk. Pour into prepared crust. Bake at 325° for 50 minutes or until center is set. Cool completely on a wire rack.
 
For 1/12 of the pie, this has 311 calories, 11 grams of fat, and 1 gram of fiber.  I'm not going to go look up the nutritional information in a regular pecan pie, but relatively speaking, this pie is like eating broccoli.
