Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you had a nice family/friends day. I love this Holiday! Soon we will be preparing delicious dishes for Christmas. I decided to make some recipes for upcoming holidays and I hope you enjoy them! This healthy pomegranate yogurt pie is low caloric and gluten free. I used oat flour
This pomegranate yogurt pie is very easy to make and I think it’s perfect for Christmas. I love pomegranate, it is my new obsession; however it is difficult to take the seeds out of the shell. I found some useful youtube videos where I can follow some instructions how easily you can take pomegranate seeds. I cut the top of this fruit, then I cut the sides and I gently squeezed the shell in the bowl full of water. This is the best way that I found.
The other part I would like to tell you about this delicious healthy dessert is that I used Truwhip (whipped topping), it is similar to Cool whip but it is healthy: no high fructose corn syrup, no hydrogenated oils, gluten free and 100% natural ingredients. It can be found in organic stores. I totally love it! I use healthy ingredients whenever I can. They are more expensive. But I feel good buying them.

my mom is obsessed with pomegranates so i should seriously consider making this for her. plus it was her birthday and i still have to make her a belated bday cake (OR PIE!) hehe
Yes, it is perfect for a birthday:) Thanks Kelsey!
sometimes i am suspicious of low-calorie desserts because i worry about losing out on flavor. but this looks amazing! plus i could feed it to my kid without feeling guilty! very excited to try it.
I feel the same like you.. when it’s healthy or low caloric I think that I will not like it. I think it is hard to compare low calorie dessert to “Real” dessert… But if you like yogurt, you will definitely like this Pomegranate Yogurt Pie. I used Truwhip instead of cool whip to make it really healthy. Thank you Anna for visiting!
