No Bake Pumpkin Pie
I love pumpkin pie. But when I think about it I immediately get concerned about the crust. Crust isn’t the easiest undertaking at the best of times, but when you’re talking about a gluten-free, dairy-free, sugar-free version, you’re really setting yourself up for a challenge. Is the crust flaky? Soggy? Too thick? Too thin? This recipe takes ALL the stress out of crust making. It truly couldn’t be simpler because it’s raw. You just press it into a pie pan – 4 very healthy ingredients. It’s sweet but has none of the “bad stuff”. The filling is equally delicious, creamy, full of pumpkin and spices, yet contains no dairy or sugar. You’ll be surprised at the ease of this creamy pie and how well loved it will be. It’s definitely a great addition to your dessert options, no matter what time of year it is. Consider topping the pie with some coconut whipped cream when serving guests. Please let us know how you enjoy it.
