Cooking Instructions

50 mins
  1. 1

    Combine flour, sugar and salt by either sifting it all or blending at high speed for 3sec

  2. 2

    Add margarine and 'cut it in' to flour mixture (or in blender at medium speed; tmx: 5sec speed 5)

  5. 5

    Place each dough ball individually in airtight container and refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight

  6. 6

    Boil cubed pulp of pumpkin for short time, then turn down and let bubble slightly for 20 min - or till soft enough that will easily part placing fork through - in slightly salted water at lower medium temp of stove top and with lid on.

  7. 7

    Pumpkin into blender

  8. 8

    Blend till smooth (in tmx 5 sec, speed 6)

    Add aquafaba (e.g.chickpea brine) and beat till mixture appears fluffy (tmx: 5 sec at speed 4)

  12. 12

    Add silken tofu and blend well (tmx speed6)

  13. 13

    Add milk* and mix for 20 sec at 2.5

  14. 14

    Cashew milk DIY:

    ¾c presoaked cashews blended with 1⅓c water till smooth

  16. 16

    Roll out refrigerated dough and place into pie plate

  17. 17

    Pour very liquid dough into pie crust

  18. 18

    Now turn down to 170℃ for 45min (w/out opening door)

  20. 20

    Turn off oven leaving pie in 15min longer

  21. 21

    Pie is finished when crust is golden and knife comes out clean when inserted into middle of pie

  22. 22

    Pie will be 'wobbly'. Moving to a cooler place. It will set more while cooling and become firm enough for cutting in the fridge.

  23. 23

    Let cool down for several hours. Refrigerate
