Ingredients

For the Crust:

  • 1 cup pecans
  • 3-5 medjool dates, pitted
  • 1 tablespoon coconut flour or 1 1/2 tablespoons of other flour
  • A splash of maple syrup (optional)
  • A pinch of kosher salt

For the Filling:

  • 1 15-ounce can pumpkin purée
  • 1 12-ounce package silken tofu, drained
  • 12-16 Medjool dates, pitted
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • A few gratings of nutmeg, to taste
  • 10 drops of liquid stevia (optional)

Preparation

  1. In a food processor, combine the crust ingredients and process for about 3 minutes. The dough should stick together when pressed between your fingers.
  2. In a pie dish coated with a non-stick cooking spray, press the dough to make the crust. Set aside until ready for the filling.
  3. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  4. Wash out the food processor and add in the filling ingredients. Process for about 3-5 minutes or until the dates are just tiny little specks. The filling should be very smooth.
  5. Scoop the filling onto the crust and smooth over with a spatula. Bake at 350°F for about 30 minutes. If the top of the crust looks like it's getting a little too brown you can add some strips of tinfoil or a pie crust protector over it.
  6. Remove from oven and chill completely before serving.
