GFCF Pumpkin Pie

I can't imagine having Thanksgiving dinner without pumpkin pie. We were excited about this great recipe made with coconut milk. I love to use coconut milk as it has a nice thick rich texture. Happy pie baking!


Gluten-Free Pie Shell
2/3 c. sorghum flour
1/4 c. tapioca flour
1/4 c. potato starch
1 ½ tsp. xanthan gum
1/2 tsp. sea salt
¼ tsp. baking powder
5 Tbsp. GFCF margarine
3 Tbsp. cold shortening
1 egg, beaten
2 Tbsp. cold water
1 tsp. cider vinegar

Mix together sorghum flour, tapioca starch, potato starch, xanthan gum, sea salt & baking powder. Add margarine and shortening with a pastry blender, or pulse in a food processor until mixture is coarse. Add egg and one tablespoon of water and cider vinegar. Add remaining tablespoon of water slowly, a little at a time until the dough forms a ball.

Place the dough on some floured wax paper. Sprinkle a thin layer of flour over the top of the dough, and flour your rolling pin too. Roll the dough gently and thinly, sprinkling with flour as needed to keep it from sticking to the rolling pin, until the dough is just bigger than your pie plate.

Gently turn the crust over onto a 9-inch pie pan. Gently pat any broken or cracked places back into shape. Crimp edges. Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork. Freeze the crust for 15 minutes. Bake in a preheated oven for 15 minutes at 375°. It is now ready to add pie filling.


Pumpkin Pie Filling
2 c. pumpkin puree
1/2 c. honey
1/4 c. maple syrup
1 Tbsp. tapioca starch
1/2 tsp. sea salt
1 ½ tsp. ground cinnamon
1 tsp. nutmeg
1/4 tsp. ground cloves
1/4 tsp. ground ginger
3 large eggs, beaten
1 ¾ c. coconut milk

Combine all ingredients, mix well. Pour into gluten-free pie crust. Bake the pie in a preheated oven for 15 minutes at 425°, continue baking for 40-50 minutes at 350°, or longer if necessary (until a knife inserted into center comes out clean). A llow to cool on a wire rack, and then refrigerate.
