Dairy-Free and Delicious

It really doesn’t take long to make this vegan pumpkin pie recipe, the crust is pretty straight forward and it won’t take more than 5 minutes to make the delicious filling. There are no eggs or dairy products in this pie, but it’s just as rich and creamy as a traditional recipe.

As well as being completely dairy-free and vegan, there is also no added refined sugar in this recipe. It’s also easy to make gluten-free by swapping the pie crust.

Can You Make This Recipe Ahead of Time?

You can make this pie a day ahead of time and keep it in the fridge, you can also make the pie dough up to 2 days ahead of time. It’s a great option for a Thanksgiving dessert to serve a crowd. I like serving it with a dollop of whipped coconut cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon.

Chef’s Tips

Add the water slowly to the pie dough until holds together.
Let the pie dough sit for at least 30 minutes in the fridge before you roll it out.
Bake the pie in a pre-heated oven for the best results.
Let the pie cool for at least 3 hours before serving so that the filling sets.

▢ ½ teaspoon salt
▢ 1 prepared vegan pie crust store-bought or homemade

Equipment

9-inch round pie plate
Large bowl
Whisk
Wire cooling rack

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400° Fahrenheit. Roll out pie crust and fit it into 9-inch round pie plate. Crimp edges and place in refrigerator to chill while oven preheats.
In large bowl, whisk together pumpkin, condensed coconut milk, arrowroot powder, pumpkin pie spice, and salt, until well combined. Pour pie filling into pie crust shell.
Place pie in preheated oven. Bake 15 minutes at 400° Fahrenheit, then reduce temperature to 350° Fahrenheit. Bake at 350°F for 30 to 40 minutes, or until knife inserted in center of pie comes out clean.
Remove pie plate from oven and place on wire cooling rack. Let pie cool at room temperature for 3 to 4 hours, then serve or refrigerate until ready to serve.

Notes

Pie Crust: I prefer to use a homemade vegan pie crust, following this recipe.
Sweetened Condensed Coconut Milk: If you’re not able to find this at your store, substitute it with a combination of 1 cup coconut cream, ¼ cup pure maple syrup, ¼ cup brown sugar or coconut sugar, and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract.
Optional: Top with coconut or dairy-free whipped cream before serving, if desired.
Make it Added Sugar Free: Skip the sweetened condensed coconut milk and use the alternate ingredients above, using Brown Swerve or coconut sugar instead of brown sugar.
