No Bake Pumpkin Pie 1

No Bake Pumpkin Pie

November 19, 2020

I gotta be honest with you guys — I’m not the biggest pumpkin pie stan. I prefer pumpkin for the savory side dishes instead of the dessert. (Hint hint: Check out my blog post featuring Three Easy Vegan Sides for Thanksgiving if you’re looking to sneak some pumpkin in before dessert!)

No Bake Pumpkin Pie 2

But the other day, I was craving something a lil sweet and a lil festive… and I had just enough pumpkin left over from Thanksgiving recipe testing to give everyone’s favorite holiday pie a second change. And I am so glad I did!

No Bake Pumpkin Pie 3

This No Bake Pumpkin Pie is not only richer and tastier than any other pumpkin pie I’ve had, it’s also totally raw, vegan, and grain-free! The crust gets its texture from coconut and walnuts while the filling is a super creamy pumpkin mousse that could honestly be eaten on its own. (Speaking from experience here.)

Pumpkin Mousse 1

Just look at that texture! Would you believe me if I told you that the creaminess comes from avocado?! But don’t worry, you can’t taste it at all. Nothing but pure cinnamon-y sweet pumpkin goodness here.

Pumpkin Mousse Filling 2

And no bake means no pre-baking your crust and no waiting around for your oven to heat up — perfect for my fellow last minute folks!

For the pumpkin mousse filling
  • 3/4 cup canned pumpkin (pumpkin puree)
  • 1 small to medium sized avocado, ripe

  1. Pulse the coconut and walnuts in a food processor.
  2. Add almond butter and maple syrup. Process until the mixture is sticky. (Do not over-process; coconut and walnuts should be visible.)

For the pumpkin mousse filling
  1. Scoop out the ripe avocado and add it to a high-speed blender along with canned pumpkin, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, vanilla extract, maple syrup, and a splash of plant milk. Blend until smooth and creamy, adding more milk if needed.
