Ingredients
The following ingredients have 9 Servings
- 1 1/4 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup cassava flour
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 5 tbsp cold butter (or organic palm shortening for dairy-free)
- 1 large egg (beaten)
- 2 tbsp cold water
- 15 oz organic pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup full fat coconut milk
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tbsp pumpkin pie spice
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
Instruction
- To make the crust, stir together the flours and salt in a mixing bowl. Cut in the butter or shortening using a pastry cutter or your fingers until you have a crumbly mixture.
- Add the egg and one tablespoon of water and using your hands, knead the ingredients together until a ball of dough forms. If the mixture is too dry and crumbly, add the second tablespoon of water (I used two for my recipe).
- Wrap the ball of dough with plastic wrap or parchment paper and place in the refrigerator for at least one hour.
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit.
- Remove the dough from the refrigerator and roll it out between two pieces of parchment paper or use your fingers to push the dough into a 9-inch pie pan. Use a fork to piece a few holes in the bottom of the dough.
- Pre-cook the crust for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl combine all the pumpkin pie filling ingredients. Using a hand mixer on medium speed, blend all ingredients together for one minute.
- Pour the filling mixture into the pre-cooked pie crust and place back in the oven for 50-60 minutes. To keep a lighter crust edge, place a pie crust shield over your pie halfway through. When a toothpick comes out clean one inch from the edge, your pie is done.
- Remove the pie from the oven, cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, then refrigerate for 2 hours to firm up.
