Ingredients

For the Pie Filling:

• 1 (15-ounce) can pumpkin puree
• 1 cup coconut cream (or full-fat coconut milk)
• ½ cup brown sugar
• ½ cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon ground ginger
• ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
• ⅛ teaspoon ground cloves
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 3 tablespoons cornstarch

For the Pie Crust:

• 1 pre-made vegan pie crust (store-bought or homemade)

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Prepare the Pie Crust: If using a store-bought crust, place it in a pie pan. If making a homemade crust, roll it out and fit it into your pie dish. Prick the bottom with a fork to prevent bubbling.
3. Make the Filling:
   • In a blender or mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, coconut cream, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, salt, and cornstarch.
   • Blend until smooth and creamy. If using a bowl, whisk vigorously until well combined.
4. Pour Filling into Crust: Pour the pumpkin filling into the prepared pie crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.
5. Bake: Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 60 minutes, or until the filling is set but still slightly jiggly in the center.
6. Cool: Allow the pie to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to fully set.
7. Serve: Serve chilled or at room temperature, topped with vegan whipped cream if desired.

Tips for Success

• Coconut Cream: Use chilled coconut cream from a can for a thicker consistency; scoop out only the solid part.
• Sweetness Adjustments: Taste your filling before baking; you can adjust sweetness by adding more sugar if desired.
• Storage: Store leftover pie in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.

This Vegan Pumpkin Pie is rich in flavor and texture, making it a perfect centerpiece for your holiday table! Enjoy your delicious creation!
