Make this rich, smooth, and spiced vegan pumpkin pie using coconut milk. It is a simple dairy-free dessert perfect for Thanksgiving or Christmas.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pre-made or homemade vegan pie crust (9-inch)
  • 1 (15-ounce) can pumpkin puree
  • 1 (13.5-ounce) can full-fat coconut milk, chilled overnight
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place your pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish.
  2. Open the chilled can of coconut milk without shaking it. Scoop out the thick cream layer from the top into a large bowl. Reserve the liquid for another use.
  3. Add the pumpkin puree, sugar, cornstarch, vanilla extract, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and salt to the bowl with the coconut cream.
  4. Use an electric mixer or a whisk to blend the ingredients until the filling is completely smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides as needed.
  5. Pour the smooth filling into the unbaked pie crust.
  6. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center has only a slight jiggle when gently shaken.
  7. Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack for at least 3 hours before slicing. This allows the filling to set fully.
  8. Chill the pie in the refrigerator for an additional hour before serving for the best texture.

Notes

  • For a gluten-free option, use a certified gluten-free pie crust.
  • You can make this pie ahead of time; it keeps well covered in the refrigerator for up to three days.
  • If you prefer a slightly firmer texture, you can substitute half of the coconut cream with silken tofu, blended until smooth before mixing with other ingredients.
