Ingredients

• 240 grams All-purpose flour
• 120 grams Coconut oil (solid)
• 60 ml Ice water
• 425 grams Pumpkin puree
• 240 ml Coconut milk (full fat)
• 150 grams Brown sugar
• 30 grams Cornstarch
• 8 grams Pumpkin pie spice
• 5 ml Vanilla extract
• 1 grams Salt

Directions

Step 1

Start by making the crust. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.

Step 2

Add solid coconut oil to the flour mixture and use a pastry cutter or fork to cut it into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 3

Gradually add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing gently with your hands until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overwork it.

Step 4

Form the dough into a disc, wrap it in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Step 5

While the dough chills, prepare the filling. In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree, coconut milk, brown sugar, cornstarch, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth.

Step 6

Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F).

Step 7

Roll out the chilled dough on a lightly floured surface to fit a 9-inch pie pan. Carefully transfer the dough to the pan, pressing it gently against the bottom and edges.

Step 8

Trim any excess dough hanging over the edges, then flute or crimp the edges for decoration.

Step 9

Pour the pumpkin filling into the prepared crust and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 10

Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until the filling is set and slightly jiggly in the center.

Step 11

Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool to room temperature, then transfer it to the refrigerator to chill for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Step 12

Slice and serve chilled. Optionally, top with vegan whipped cream for extra indulgence.
