Gluten & Dairy-Free Pumpkin Pie - Updated

TIME: 1 HR 15 MIN | YIELD: 1 PIE

EASY PRESS-IN OAT CRUST INGREDIENTS:

PIE FILLING INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 ½ cups pumpkin puree (from a can or baked pie pumpkin)

  • 3 eggs (farm fresh)

  • ½ cup maple syrup

  • ½ cup coconut milk

  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 ½ teaspoons cinnamon powder

  • 1 teaspoon ginger powder

  • ½ teaspoon nutmeg powder

  • ½ teaspoon sea salt

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease a glass 9" pie dish.

  2. In a food processor combine all dry ingredients including rolled oats, arrowroot starch, coconut sugar, spices and sea salt and process into the consistency of flour. It is important to measure the arrowroot starch by spooning the starch into the measuring cup and leveling off with a knife. Scooping the starch directly with the measuring cup will give too large of a measurement.

  3. Cut chilled butter into multiple chunks and distribute evenly over the flour. Process the butter into the flour until the flour begins to represent a crumbly texture.

  4. With food processor running, add cold water one tablespoon at a time looking for the flour to ball up into a sticky dough. Once the dough ball is formed stop the processor and remove the dough.

  5. Place the dough in the center of the greased pie dish and begin to spread the dough out evenly across the bottom and sides of the dish.

  6. Place in the center of the preheated oven and bake for 10 min. Blind baking a crust is necessary for pumpkin filled pies to keep the crust from being too soggy. Remove and let the crust rest while preparing the filling.

  7. Blend all filling ingredients together in a high speed blender and pour into the crust.

  8. Return to the oven and bake for 55 min or until a knife inserted comes out clean. Set out to cool to room temperature. Pie will set as it cools. May serve warm or you may chill for a few hours for a firmer texture.

  9. Serve warm or cold, topped with coconut whipped cream.
