Zero Waste Vegan Pumpkin Pie Recipe

If you’re carving pumpkins, you might be wondering what you can do with all of the pumpkin goodness you’ve taken out of your gourd. Although pumpkin is great in a curry, soup or even a pasta dish, the pumpkin pie is arguably our favourite use of pumpkin. Spiced, warming and delectably creamy, we urge you to make this zero waste vegan pumpkin pie recipe this spooky season.

Note: this is an all-day recipe so set aside a good chunk of time. 


ZERO WASTE VEGAN PUMPKIN PIE INGREDIENTS

Crust

  • 190g of plain flour
  • 90g cold vegan butter
  • 90ml of ice water
  • Pinch of salt 

Pumpkin filling

  • 1 pumpkin
  • 100g brown sugar
  • 80ml of unsweetened plant milk
  • 15ml olive oil
  • 20g of cornflour
  • ½ tsp of dried ginger
  • ½ tsp of cinnamon
  • ½ tsp of nutmeg
  • ½ tsp of ground cloves
  • Pinch of salt

ZERO WASTE VEGAN PUMPKIN PIE METHOD
  1. Roast your pumpkin in its shell by cutting it in halves or quarters, removing the seeds and placing in the oven cut-side down until the flesh is soft
  2. Once cooled, blend your pumpkin into a smooth paste and strain liquid by letting it sit in a fine-mesh sieve for 30 mins
  3. Add your flour and salt to a mixing bowl and whisk to combine
  4. Add your cold butter and use a fork to cut it in to your dry ingredients, taking care not to mix too much
  5. Add your ice water little by little, mixing with a spoon, until your pastry has come together
  6. Transfer to baking paper and make a 3cm thick disc - pop in fridge for 30 mins and then let it come back closer to room temperature
  7. Preheat your oven to 180˚c
  8. Blend your pumpkin puree and other filling ingredients together until smooth
  9. Roll your dough out to the size of your pie pan and work it into your pan
  10. Pop your filling into your pie crust and bake for around 1 hour until your crust is lightly golden - don’t worry if your filling still jiggles, as the next step is to allow your pie to solidify for about 4 hours or overnight


Can you freeze the zero-waste vegan pumpkin pie?

You can indeed! Find some space and pop those extra slices in the freezer. 

Ps. Toast your pumpkin seeds for a delicious, nutritious snack
