Ingredients
  • CRUST:
  • 1½ cups flour (I used ancient einkorn wheat flour)
  • ½ teaspoon salt (I used pink Himalayan)
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • ½ cup cold lard or unsalted butter
  • 3-4 tablespoons ice cold water
  • FILLING:
  • 2 cups pumpkin puree from a roasted pie pumpkin or use canned puree that's not seasoned
  • 1 cup full fat canned coconut milk
  • ⅔ cup maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon pink himalayan salt
  • 2 whole eggs plus the yolk of a third egg
  • 1½ teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground cloves
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cardamom
  • zest of 1 lemon
  • WHIPPED COCONUT CREAM:
  • 1 cup coconut cream (scrape the solid cream off the top of about 2 cans of coconut milk refrigerated for at least 24 hours so it separates)
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1-2 teaspoon bourbon or rum
Instructions
  1. FOR THE CRUST:
  2. In a food processor, blend flour and salt with a quick pulse.
  3. Dice the cold lard into small half inch cubes and pulse with the flour just a few times until the lard is about the size of peas. Alternately, you can do this by hand and cut the lard into the flour with a pastry blender.
  4. Add maple syrup and ice water and pulse just until dough starts to come together (or blend with pastry blender).
  5. Then, add the ice water one tablespoon at a time and pulse after each one or knead with your hands until it comes together. If there are still bits of dough that are not incorporating, add a touch more water.
  6. Once dough comes together, knead gently on a clean lightly floured surface to form into a disc. Do not over knead.
  7. Dust dough with flour and wrap in plastic wrap to refrigerate for an hour to overnight.
  8. When ready to fill, flour your work surface and rolling pin and roll out dough to ⅛" thickness.
  9. Drape over an ungreased pie plate and press lightly into the dish. Trim off excess to leave 1" overhang.
  10. Fold edges of dough under to make a cute edge and pinch around to seal edges. Lightly prick dough with a fork.
  11. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Blind bake (without filling in it) about 10 minutes until crust puffs slightly and is light golden. Remove from oven and pour in filling.
  12. FOR THE FILLING:
  13. Combine all ingredients with the whisk attachment on a stand mixer.
  14. Let sit in fridge 1 hour to overnight for best flavor but can use immediately.
  15. Pour into blind baked pie crust and turn oven down to 375 degrees. Bake at 375 degrees for 45-60 minutes.
  16. Check for doneness every five minutes starting at 45 minutes. Center should be just set.
  17. Cool completely before serving.
  18. FOR THE WHIPPED CREAM:
  19. Place coconut cream in a chilled bowl and whisk with electric hand mixer or stand mixer until peaks form.
  20. Whisk in syrup, vanilla and bourbon and serve on top of pie slices.
