Ingredients

Scale

Crust

  • Plant-based pie crust ingredients (enough to line a 9-inch pie dish)
  • Optional: ground pecans or walnuts for a nutty twist

Filling

  • 1 1/2 cups pure pumpkin purée (natural)
  • 2/3 cup plant-based milk
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup (natural)
  • 1 tablespoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (natural)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg (natural)
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves (natural)
  • 1/2 teaspoon natural gelling agent

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crust: Combine your plant-based pie crust ingredients and press the mixture evenly into a 9-inch pie dish. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes until the crust is lightly golden and set to hold the filling.
  2. Mix the Filling: In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin purée, plant-based milk, maple syrup, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and natural gelling agent until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
  3. Pour and Bake: Pour the pumpkin filling carefully over the pre-baked crust. Return the pie to the oven and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 50 to 60 minutes. The filling should be set around the edges but retain a slight jiggle in the center when done.
  4. Cool Thoroughly: Remove the pie from the oven and place it on a wire rack. Allow it to cool completely so the filling can firm up for perfect slicing.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Once chilled, slice the pumpkin pie and optionally garnish with plant-based whipped cream or a sprinkle of toasted cinnamon. Share and enjoy with friends and family.

Notes

  • Use the natural gelling agent sparingly to avoid an overly firm filling.
  • Always use fresh spices to ensure aromatic and vibrant flavors.
  • Place a baking sheet beneath the pie to catch any drips and ensure even heat distribution.
  • Test doneness by gently shaking the pie; a slight wobble in the center signals perfect baking.
  • Refrigerate the pie for several hours before serving to enhance texture and flavor melding.
