Per Serving:
If the pie is cut into 8 slices, each slice would be approximately 6-7 WW points.
If you want to lower the points:
- Consider using a lighter crust (such as a graham cracker crust or a reduced-fat version).
- You could also try sugar substitutes (like Stevia or Splenda) to reduce the sugar content and lower the overall points.
