White Chocolate Strawberry Pie-lets

From The Biggest Loser Cookbook

Most store-bought pie crusts are full of butter and refined sugars. Instead of indulging in those, I've found that adding 100% fruit preserves to finely crushed cereal crumbs creates a perfect alternative that adds plenty of flavor. Feel free to use raspberry preserves or another flavor of choice instead of the strawberry I suggest here.

• Makes 4 servings
• ½ cup crunchy high-fiber, low-sugar cereal finely-crushed into crumbs
• 2 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons strawberry 100% fruit preserves, divided
• 1 ¾ cups fat-free milk
• 1 package (1 ounce) sugar-free, fat-free white chocolate pudding mix

In a small mixing bowl, combine the crumbs and 2 tablespoons of the preserves. With a large spoon, stir to mix well. Divide the mixture into 4 ramekins or small dessert bowls. Press the mixture into the bottom of the dishes. Set aside.

In a medium mixing bowl, combine milk and the pudding mix. Whisk to blend. Pour into the ramekins or bowls. Dollop ½ teaspoon preserves on top of each. Cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 3 days.
