Cooking & Baking Supplies

  • Quiche Dish Baking Pan

Ingredients  

Pie Crust

  • 2 1/2 cups almond flour
  • 2 tbsp coconut flour
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup ghee, melted
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup + 2 tbsp cup maple syrup
  • oil or ghee to coat pie pan

Filling

  • 1 15oz can pumpkin puree
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup coconut sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup canned coconut milk
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice
  • 3 tbsp coconut flour

Instructions 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • In one large mixing bowl, make the pie crust. First add in your dry ingredients (almond flour, coconut flour, salt) to the mixing bowl. Then add in the wet ingredients (ghee, egg, vanilla extract, maple syrup) and stir until smooth.
  • Roll the dough into a ball and place the mixing bowl into the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes to harden.
  • While the dough is in the refrigerator, make your filling. Add all of the filling ingredients to a food processor or high speed blender and blend until smooth.
  • Coat your pie dish well with melted ghee or oil.
  • Remove your dough from the refrigerator. Place the dough ball between two pieces of parchment paper and roll it out until it’s about two inches thick (or large enough to fit the pie dish), then add your dough to the pie dish and even it out with your hands, making sure some of the dough is going up the sides of the pie dish (about ½ inch). Poke holes in the crust with a fork.
  • Add your pumpkin filling into the pie crust.
  • Cook on the bottom rack of your oven for 60 minutes. Make sure to keep an eye on it as every oven is different. If the crust starts to burn, cover the pan with tin foil. Check on the pie at the 30, 45, and 50 mark to see how it looks to ensure that it doesn't burn. It’s normal for the outer rim to look done and the middle to be a little jiggly. It will set once you let it cool for a couple of hours.
  • Remove the pie from the oven, let it cool, and then place the pie in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours to set (optional, but let it cool first before eating). The center will be a bit jiggly and the top of the pie will have cracks.
  • Remove from the refrigerator and ENJOY!
