Vegan Pumpkin Pie/Dessert Recipe | Best Holiday Recipe

Vegan Pumpkin Pie is a must-try dessert for the holidays and anytime you’re craving for a good pumpkin treat!

Traditional pumpkin pies start with the classic butter-flour crust, and the Vegan Pumpkin Pie filling often includes purée, cream, eggs, sugar, and spices.

Pumpkin Pie can be seen as the little black dress of desserts that you can dress up or dress down.

No whip, it’s fundamentally a vegetable pie (day wear) and whip or a la mode, it becomes a decadent spiced dessert, for the twilight hours.

What is overwhelming about pumpkin pie is that it’s not sickly sweet.

It’s perfectly sweet, and wonderfully textured, but not super sweet.

Like with just about anything, to make a vegan version it’s easier than you might think

This easy pumpkin pie simply uses vegan butter in the crust.

For this recipe, we’re keeping it vegan, gluten-free, and naturally sweetened.
