Ingredients
For the filling:
- 2 3/4 cups pumpkin puree
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup cane sugar
- 3 Tbs cornstarch
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground ginger
- 1/3 cup non-dairy milk
- 1 Tbs vegetable oil
- 1/4 tsp salt
For the dough:
- 2 1/2 cups flour
- 1/2 cup coconut oil or vegetable butter
- 2 Tbs cane sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- cold water to form the dough
Preparation
- Mix the flour with the coconut oil or vegetable butter until you obtain a kind of “wet” and coarse flour. Add the sugar, salt and mix well until everything is well incorporated. Add water little by little until forming a dough at its optimum point, neither wet nor dry. Do not work it too much so that it stays soft when baked.
- Expand the dough between pastry paper with a rolling pin and place it on a pie pan covering the entire surface. Make a few holes with a fork to prevent bubbles from forming.
- For the filling, place all the ingredients in a blender and process until you have a very creamy and thick mixture.
- Place the mixture on the dough and put in the oven preheated to 350º F for one hour or until golden.
- Let cool and put in the refrigerator once cold until the next day to eat it. It must curdle and firm up well before breaking it.
