No Dairy Pumpkin Pie Food

DAIRY-FREE PUMPKIN PIE

Steps:

• Place the flour, salt, and sugar in a food processor fitted with an "S" blade and pulse to combine.
• Add the vegan butter and cold water and process until the mixture resembles a coarse meal, begins to stick together, and holds together when pinched.
• Remove dough from processor (will be crumbly) and form into a ball.
• Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 60 minutes or overnight
• In a large bowl, beat the eggs.
• Whisk in the pumpkin, coconut milk and vanilla extract until combined.
• Add sugar, salt, cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice and mix until completely combined.
• Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F.
• Lightly grease a pie plate and set aside.
• Roll out your pie dough on a well-floured surface (pastry cloth) to fit the size of your pie plate.
• Carefully transfer the dough to the pie plate and shape the crust how you want it to look.
• Pour the filling into the unbaked pie crust and cover the crust with a pastry shield
• Bake for 15 minutes at 425 degrees F.
• Reduce the temperature to 350 degrees F and continue to bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a knife inserted comes out clean. It may be a bit wobbly still, but it will firm-up as it cools.
• Allow the pie to cool on a wire rack for 2 hours (Be patient! This is important). Serve or refrigerate until ready to serve.

DAIRY-FREE HONEY PUMPKIN PIE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees F.
• In medium bowl, mix flour and 1/4 teaspoon salt. With pastry blender or 2 knives, cut shortening into flour until texture is crumbly. Sprinkle 3 tablespoons of the almondmilk over mixture and mix with fork until mixture comes together in a ball. If necessary, sprinkle a little more almondmilk over the mixture.
• Sprinkle a little flour over a 12-inch square of waxed paper. Place ball of dough in center; pat into disc. Sprinkle with flour and top with another square of waxed paper. Roll very thinly into 12-inch circle. Remove top piece of waxed paper and turn crust upside down over a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate. Fit into pie plate and remove waxed paper. Crimp edges.
• To make the filling, beat the rest of the ingredients and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt with electric mixer on low speed in a large bowl until well-mixed. Pour into crust.
• Bake 50 to 55 minutes or until knife inserted 1 inch from edge comes out clean. Cover edges of crust with strips of foil to keep from over-browning, if necessary. Cool completely, about 2 hours. Store in refrigerator.

DAIRY FREE PUMPKIN PIE

Steps:

• In a blender, combine the silken tofu and honey until smooth, adding small quantities of soy milk until mixture has the consistency of sweetened condensed milk.
• Combine pumpkin, tofu mixture, sugar, salt, butter, and spices in a sauce pan. Stir over medium heat until margarine has completely melted.
• Add egg yolks to mixture and blend well.
• Add lemon extract and blend inches
• Gently fold in stiffened egg whites and let mixture cool for a few minutes.
• Pour into pie crust and bake at 500 degrees for 8 minutes. Reduce heat to 325 degrees and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes.
• Let pie cool for one hour before serving.
• Baking hint: To prevent edges of piecrust from burning, take a square of aluminum foil and cut an 8" or 9" hole in the center. Lay over top of pie, exposing pie mixture but covering the edges of the crust. Bake pie according to directions above.

DAIRY-FREE IMPOSSIBLE PUMPKIN PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and position rack in the middle of the oven. Spray a 9- or 10-inch pie pan with baking spray or oil the pan with coconut oil or vegan butter.
• Add the coconut milk, pumpkin, eggs, sugar, and vanilla to the pitcher of a blender. Blend until combined, about 20 seconds. Add the flour, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, and salt. Blend again until well-combined, another 20 seconds.
• Pour filling into the pie plate. The mixture will be fairly runny. Carefully transfer to the preheated oven.
• Bake until the middle just barely jiggles, 40-50 minutes. I like to check the middle by giving the pie pan a little nudge, and if it seems like it's no longer liquid, I'll pull the pie out and insert a butter knife about halfway between the center and the edge. If the knife comes out relatively clean - no runny pie filling - it's done!
• Place on a cooling rack and let cool, about 1 hour. Transfer to refrigerator to completely cool, at least one more hour (or up to 3 days in advance).
• If desired, top pie with dollops of coconut whipped cream. Or simply cut slices, transfer to a plate, and top individual servings with the whipped cream.
• Keeps in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. I suggest covering the completely cooled pie with plastic wrap if not serving right away.
