The BEST Dairy Free Pumpkin Pie You Will Ever Eat!






In order for me to make a dairy free pumpkin pie this year i had to search down a recipe that did not have sweetened condensed milk in them. that's a lot harder than you think. but i actually found one on Simply Recipies It was a post about how to make you own pumpkin puree, I already do that SO, i just needed a REAL recipe so i could take the milk out and opt in the almond milk I need to say My family has been just great trying out the new recipes and they told me that they could not even TELL that this pie didn't have real dairy in it. and its so good you will not have half a pumpkin pie sitting around for a week after Thursday, the above slice was from a 9 inch pie and it was gone before the pie was 12 hours old.... 

I know what you are thinking, HOW can that be dairy free with that great big glob of whipped cream on top? That rich creamy melting glob of yumminess is NOT Cow's cream! its made from coconut milk. and i will post more about that tomorrow....
