Easy. As. Pie.
This might well per chance well be one of our microscopic secrets, k? Honest execute this impossible pumpkin pie recipe and relieve it with a smile. No apologies. No caveats. No waffling or waggling. You save no longer should always establish it vegan. Or gluten-free. Or lactose-free. Which it’s. Because nobody will ever know. It tastes that perfect. And you would per chance well also ranking extreme parts alongside with your vegan company. You might well well be a hero to gluten-free pie lovers. A goddess to egg-free pumpkin-cravers. A rock star to dairy-free angels.
My secret? It’s in the major points.
First- no tofu (positive, Babycakes, my pumpkin pie is soy-free so that you just obtained’t should always assign apart up alongside with your cousin’s tofu jokes on Thanksgiving).
2d- it be also rice-free. No gritty rice flour (which, come to evaluate of it, I’m no longer regularly utilizing any extra). No cornstarch (for those of you fending off corn).
In a sweet microscopic virtual nutshell– it be very meals hypersensitive reaction friendly.
Even your Aunt Sadie who’s allergic to Wyoming would per chance well well be ready to exhaust this. Unless she’s allergic to pumpkin.
Then you definately are screwed.
My secret ingredient? My current grain of slack. Buckwheat. I thank my lucky stars every evening that I will exhaust buckwheat, no longer only attributable to it be deeply familiar, ingrained as it’s in my semi-Ashkenazi bones (while the Scot-Irish half of of me pines for Guinness), it be a cereal-free “grain” with a soft, sweet nutty taste and a increased protein instruct material than many other gluten-free flours. And it’s drop-needless intriguing in baking (contain you tried my Buckwheat Chocolate Chip Cookies? My Pumpkin Raisin Cake?).
Buckwheat? In a pumpkin pie? you inquire of of.
Affirmative. You peek, that is a crustless pumpkin pie- a shut relative of my crustless quiches (though they agree with eggs which helps beyond imagining- but vegans, preserve the faith, attributable to I’m also working on an eggless quiche slit kugel). As impossible as it appears to be like (k, allow me, please, a corny nod to the feeble Bisquick trick) the buckwheat flour helps have a young and barely discernible crust, which- for a quasi-baker love me is a high-fiving relief attributable to there might well be nothing I truly contain much less patience for than wrangling with drop-apart-when-you-sneeze gluten-free pie crust dough. Neatly.
That’s no longer solely true.
I truly contain even much less patience for the worry-spiking sensationalism media corporations relieve up as news when it’s miles the relaxation but. It’s enough to present any sensitive soul extreme schpilkis.
Which is why I disconnected my cable TV.
A hundred and twenty-eight dollars a month to salvage heartburn?
I don’t judge so.

Karina’s Easy Gluten-Free Pumpkin Pie Recipe
Within the origin revealed October 2008.
I truly contain two more secret formula that execute this pie work. No wait. Three. Full elephantine coconut milk is a should always. The explanation is the thickness and richness. Once you happen to would per chance well well also’t exhaust coconut milk, any filthy rich, perfect tasting soy milk, nut milk or hemp milk regularly is the next most productive possibility. Skinny rice milk is no longer gonna lower it.
Next up is tapioca starch. I prefer it to cornstarch for thickening gluten-free pie filling. There is no longer great in right here, but it works great to preserve your custard collectively. Which brings me to the last magic ingredient.
Xanthan gum. I do know xanthan gum sounds love a uncommon and provoking ingredient but on this recipe it be price it be weight in gold attributable to it lends a silky smoothness to the custard. And it helps to bind it (such as what egg whites attain).
