Paleo Pumpkin Pie

After 4 previous attempts- this is what I came up with!

*Crust:

Ingredients:
  • 1 1/2 cup almond flour
  • pinch of sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoon honey
  • 1/3 cup olive oil
 Directions:
  • preheat the oven to 350 degrees
  • lightly grease pie pan
  • mix all ingredients together with a spoon (make sure all almond flour has been moistened)
  • dump dough into the middle of the pan and spread out and onto the edges of the pie pan - it is not going to be perfect and will slide down the sides a little- it's okay!
  • bake for 10 minutes
*Pie Filling
Ingredients:
  • 1 can pumpkin (the small can not the large one)
  • 2 free range eggs
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla
  • 1/4 cup coconut milk (yes, the kind from a can- not So Delicious or the "light" version- pure coconut milk)
Directions:
Ignore the missing piece- it was yummy :)
  • in a large bowl, whisk together eggs, honey, vanilla and coconut milk
  • stir in pumpkin, pumpkin pie spice, and cinnamon (use a spatula/spoon)
  • mix until it looks creamy 
  • once pie crust is done...
  • pour filling into the baked pie crust and smooth out the top
  • put back into the oven for 45-60 minutes (do the toothpick test) 
  • let cool then ENJOY! :)
