Ingredients

Classic Vegan Pumpkin Pie

  • 1 15 oz can pumpkin puree
  • 3/4 cup full-fat coconut milk
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

How to Make Classic Vegan Pumpkin Pie

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a bowl, mix together the cornstarch with a small amount of coconut milk to create a smooth paste, so you don't have any lumps.
  • Add the paste to the remaining coconut milk, pumpkin puree, cinnamon, nutmeg, and sugar. Mix well.
  • Pour the pumpkin pie filling mixture into your pie pan and spread out the pumpkin mixture with a spatula.
  • Bake for 60 minutes. The center may be just a little jiggly, but if it's too jiggly, let it bake 5-10 minutes more.  It's ok that it has a little jiggle and the top has cracks.
  • Let pie cool and then place in fridge for 4 hours until it's completely set. This should help ensure that your vegan pumpkin pie is both delicious and well-structured.
  • Garnish with vegan whipped cream like cocowhip or our vegan whipped cream recipe.
