How to Make Gluten Free Vegan Pumpkin Pie — Step by Step

2. Combine pumpkin, flour, spices, maple syrup and salt. Mix until smooth.

3. Pour in coconut milk.

4. Mix until smooth.

5. Prepare to pour pie filling into crust.

6. Pour pumpkin pie filling mixture into pie crust dough evenly as possible.

7. Smooth the top with a spoon.

9. Slice and enjoy!

A Few Tips for Making Dairy Free Pumpkin Pie

1. Just Pumpkin!

   Be certain to use straight pumpkin puree without any added ingredients for best results.

2. Chill it!

   Your pumpkin pie should still be slightly wobbly when removed from the oven. Make sure you do not skip the refrigeration step, as this is what sets and fully the solidifies the pie!

3. Store it!

   I doubt there will be anything left to store after you taste this pie, but if storage is needed simply store slices in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to one week. To serve, let sit for a few minutes to bring to room temperature before serving.

Common Recipe Questions

1. Can I replace the maple syrup?

   Yes. But I only recommend replacing it with a liquid sweetener. You can replace the maple syrup with honey, agave syrup or coconut nectar. For a sugar-free pie, I recommend this sugar-free sweetener from Lakanto.

2. Can I replace the tapioca flour with another flour or starch?

   Yes. Alternatively, you can use arrowroot starch.

3. Can I replace the coconut milk?

   Yes. It will not be as creamy, but you can use other non-dairy milks such as cashew, oat or almond for similar results. You can also use coconut cream for super creamy results!
