Is Pumpkin Pie Healthy?

Among my many gluten free recipes, pumpkin pie is one of my all-time favorites!

Pumpkin is a fiber rich food, organic dark chocolate is a powerful antioxidant, and almond flour is a health hero for a low carb high protein diet.

The star of the show here is the dark dairy free chocolate chips that give this recipe an added layer of creamy richness and the perfect punch of rich cacao. I use organic 70% dark chocolate chips that are vegan.

Recipe for Gluten Free Pie Crust

Dairy Free Gluten Free Pie Crust

This Dairy Free Chocolate Pumpkin Pie recipe is cradled in a scrumptiously buttery Gluten Free Pie Crust. Food for thought –I’ve been told this crust tastes like a cookie!

There is essentially one step in this crust recipe –combining coconut flour, butter, arrowroot powder, and maple syrup in a food processor. Then it’s ready to pop in the oven.

I usually make the crust the day before I prepare the pie filling, which allows time to focus on the other healthy easy dishes I plan to serve during the holidays.

Did you know that both canned and fresh pumpkin are packed with fiber along with vitamins A, C, and E, in addition to iron and potassium?

How do you know when your pie is done? I do a quick knife test to determine this and simply insert a knife into the middle of the filling. If the knife comes out clean, the pie is done baking.

Keto Pumpkin Pie

Dairy Free Keto Pumpkin Pie

My Keto Pumpkin Pie is the best no bake pumpkin pie, as well as another great recipe with few ingredients! It’s also a fantastic low carb, high fat (LCHF) dessert.

To achieve the creamy sweetness of this no bake pie, I liquefy coconut oil and coconut milk and sweeten it with 1 tablespoon of maple syrup, yes that’s keto.

But you can also make this pie without the sweetener, and it will still taste divine, I promise.

The coconut products provide healthy fats that are super creamy and give the pie a great mouthfeel. Of all my Vegan Thanksgiving recipes, this pie is one that never lasts as a holiday leftover.
