Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 cups almond flour(or simply ground almonds in a blender)
  • 1/4cup Coconut Oil
  • 1/4tsp Sea Salt
  • 2cups cooked pumpkin(or pumpkin puree from a can)
  • 1cup coconut milk(from a can)
  • 3 whole eggs(beaten together)
  • 1/2cup honey(use raw honey for extra antioxidants)
  • 1tbsp xanthan gum(used to thicken then pie filling)
  • 2tsp Cinnamon
  • 1/4tsp nutmeg
  • 1tsp ground ginger
  • 1/4tsp ground cloves
Instructions
  1. Pre-heat the oven to 350F.
  2. In a medium sized bowl, mix together the following 3 ingredients to make the crust. Add 1 1/2 cups of almond flour, a 1/4 cup of coconut oil, 1/4 tsp of sea salt. With your hands, press the ingredients together until it reaches a sticky and doughy texture.
  3. Once the ingredients are bound together, spread a little bit of coconut oil around the bottom and sides of a 9 inch pie tray, then add the pie crust ingredients to the tray.
  4. Press down as hard as you can to form the crust along the edges of the pie tray.
  5. Once your pie crust is looking delicious, it’s time to make the pumpkin pie filling. In a large mixing bowl, add the following wet ingredients: 2 cups of pumpkin puree, 1 cup of coconut milk to give it a creamy texture, 3 eggs that have been beaten together, and 1/2 cup raw honey for sweetness. Stir it up.
  6. In a small bowl, add the following dry ingredients and delicious and flavorful spices: 1 tbsp xanthan gum, 2 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 tsp nutmeg, 1 tsp ground ginger, and 1/4 tsp ground cloves. Stir it together until it’s reached a good consistency.
  7. Add the dry ingredients to the bowl of wet ingredients and stir together.
  8. Add the creamy and delicious pumpkin pie filling to the pie crust and spread it out evenly so it covers the entire bottom of the crust, and looks pretty. Rather than overfilling the crust with pie filling, make sure you leave a little bit of the edge of the crust exposed. If you still have extra pie filling, add it another baking dish to make a pumpkin souffle, or to a muffin tray to bake muffins.
  9. All you have to do now is bake it. Add the pumpkin pie tray to the 350F pre-heated oven and bake for 55-60 minutes, but make sure to keep your eye on it. The smells in your kitchen will be delicious.
  10. After the timer goes off, take a peak, and if it looks done, remove the pumpkin from the oven.
