Simple Dairy-Free Pumpkin Pie Recipe

What I love about this pumpkin pie is its simplicity. Anyone can turn this recipe into a perfect dairy-free pumpkin pie easily.

Grain-Free Crust

For the grain-free crust, simply place the ingredients into a food processor and pulse until a soft dough forms. Then, chill the dough for a bit. When you’re ready, just press the dough into the pie dish with your fingers—no rolling required! This method means no mess, and you’ll end up with a perfectly shaped crust.

Delicious Dairy-Free Filling

For the dairy-free pumpkin filling, start by beating the eggs with sugar. Then, add the remaining ingredients and whisk everything together briskly until well combined.

Pre-Baking the Crust

Before pouring the filling into the crust, it’s important to partially pre-bake the crust. This step ensures the crust stays buttery and doesn’t become soggy.

How to Make a Silky Gluten-Free Pumpkin Pie

If you want a silky gluten-free pumpkin pie with a perfect crust, there are a few important tips to keep in mind.

Chilling the Crust

First, ensure that the pie crust dough is properly chilled. This step is crucial for achieving a flaky texture.

Partially Baking the Crust

Next, the crust must be partially baked before adding the filling. This helps to create a stable base for your delicious pumpkin filling.

Slow Baking the Filling

To prevent cracking, the filling should be baked slowly. This method transforms it into a silky pumpkin custard, enhancing its texture and flavor.
