Easy Pumpkin Pie

Dave and his daughter Elsie created this recipe one Saturday afternoon using pumpkins from their farm. This no-bake dessert is easy to make and tastes like an elegant cheesecake, with a rich, sweet pumpkin filling, a biscuity base, and a topping of chocolate shards.

Takes 40 minutes

Serves 8

Ingredients
 

Base:

  • 200 g digestive biscuits
  • 80 g coconut oil
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Filling:

  • 500 g pumpkin or squash peeled and diced (or 400 g pumpkin purée)
  • 400 g vegan cream cheese
  • 100 g coconut oil
  • 140 g maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 2 tsp ground ginger
  • 1 pinch salt

Topping:

  • 50 g dark chocolate finely chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C. If using fresh pumpkin or squash, peel, seed, and cut into small, bite-sized pieces. Place on a baking tray and roast for 25 minutes or until soft.
  • Add the digestive biscuits to a food processor and blend until they resemble breadcrumbs (about 1 minute). Add the coconut oil and vanilla extract, and blend again until incorporated (about 30 seconds). Transfer the mixture to a lined springform cake tin or pie dish, spreading it evenly. Use the back of a spoon to press it down firmly, creating a compact base.
  • Wipe out the food processor, then add the roasted pumpkin (or pumpkin purée) and all remaining filling ingredients. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  • Using a silicone spatula, spread the filling evenly over the prepared base. Smooth the top for an even finish.
  • Place the pie in the fridge to set for at least 30 minutes. For a firmer texture, chill for 1–2 hours.
  • Just before serving, finely chop the dark chocolate and sprinkle over the top of the pie.
