Gluten free pumpkin pie
As pumpkin pie isn’t a Swedish tradition we had never eaten pumpkin pie before. Not what we remember anyway. But then we bought a pumpkin for Halloween and thought we could cook something fun with it. Our first pumpkin pie was born!
When the children cut out eyes and vampire teeth from the pumpkin, we made a quick yet delicious pumpkin puree of the pumpkin flesh. Easily done! We set the oven at 160 degrees Celsius, cut the pumpkin into smaller pieces and roasted it in the oven until soft. Then we let it cool before we put it in the mixer. Pumpkin puree!
Then we made the crust – it’s gluten free and contains no sugar at all (just coconut flour, coconut oil, eggs and salt). When pre-baked, add the pumpkin puree and the rest of the ingredients in the blender. Then pour the filling into the pre-baked pie crust and bake in the middle of the oven for about 50 minutes.
What you decorate the pie with is of course entirely up to you – we chose whipped cream, the pumpkin seeds from the pumpkin and lingonberries from the freezer. Gluten-free pumpkin pie – new favorite dessert!
