Description

This crustless pumpkin pie recipe offers a healthier twist on the traditional dessert. With its creamy, custard-like texture and warm spices, it’s a delicious and lighter alternative to the classic pumpkin pie. It’s perfect for fall, the holidays, or any time you want a comforting dessert that’s easy to make and customizable for various dietary needs.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can pumpkin puree (15 oz)
  • 1 cup milk of choice
  • 2 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/3 cup flour (such as spelt, oat, white, sorghum, or almond)
  • 1/2 cup sugar or unrefined sugar or granulated erythritol
  • 1 tbsp flaxmeal or 2 tsp cornstarch (can be omitted if serving pie in a bowl)
  • Optional: 2 tbsp oil or almond butter for richness


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease a 9-inch or 10-inch pie pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, milk, vanilla extract, and flaxmeal (or egg).
  3. Add cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, salt, baking powder, flour, and sugar. Mix well to form a smooth batter.
  4. Pour the mixture into the prepared pie pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
  5. Bake the pie for 35 minutes. The pie will be slightly gooey when done.
  6. Allow the pie to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 6 hours (or overnight) to set.
  7. Once chilled, slice and serve, or gently warm each slice in the microwave before serving.

Notes

  • If you prefer a firmer texture, add a tablespoon of ground flaxseeds or an egg to the batter.
  • The pie will firm up as it cools in the fridge, so be patient before slicing.
  • If you’re looking for a gluten-free version, substitute the flour with almond meal or a gluten-free flour blend.
  • For a vegan pie, simply choose a plant-based milk and omit the egg in favor of flaxmeal.
