Vegan and Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie
This delicious Vegan and Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie recipe, includes a gluten-free crust recipe from the book Pies and Tarts with Heart by Dynise Balcavage. The pumpkin pie is just to die for! I love the consistency and the flavors.
I don’t think I will ever go back to using canned pumpkin for baking anymore. I will get my own sweet, small pie pumpkins and bake them. I adapted a recipe that came on a flier with the pie pumpkins I purchased at the grocery store. The recipe for the pumpkin pie follows below. I used fresh baked pie pumpkins for the filling for this pie. You can find out how to bake, prepare and puree whole pie pumpkins here.
Gluten-Free Crust:
Gluten-Free Crust Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups gluten-free flour I used the Pure Pantry All Purpose Baking Mix
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 to 1/8 teaspoon xantham gum I did not use because the Pure Pantry Mix has it in the mix
- 2 Tablespoons margarine Vegan
- 4 Tablespoons shortening I didn't have any so used coconut oil
- 3 - 6 Tablespoons ice-cold water
Instructions
- Dice the margarine and shortening and add to the flour & salt mixture. Blend well, handling as little as possible while adding the ice-water.
- Blend until dough just holds together.
- Wrap dough in plastic wrap and Refrigerate at least 2 hours or overnight.
- Then roll out and place dough into pie pan.
- NOTE: I found I could not roll this dough no matter how I tried. So I dumped it into my pie dish and finger pressed it up the sides and into the bottom.
- This worked well. I poured my prepared pumpkin pie puree into the pie crust and baked.
- Bake as you would any recipe calling for uncooked pie crust.

Hi Eric, that is my goal to make food great tasting no matter how they eat!
My husband loves pumpkin pie, I’m definitely going to try and make this recipe.
This seems really creamy and something Id enjoy.
Looks delicious!!! I would like to try this but am unable to use the xantham gum. What do you think? Would it work without it?
Yes Debi it would. Xantham just helps with the sticking together of the crust
Thank you for sharing such a wonderful recipe for those who needs to eat gluten free stuff.
Your welcome Julia! Hey since I have had to give up gluten and dairy…I have really missed a good pumpkin pie! Coconut milk makes is so much easier to eat dairy free!
looks so yummy! found you through SITS and I’m glad I did, love your recipes!

Totally trying the gluten free pie crust. My best friend was just diagnosed as gluten intolerant and this would be a lovely treat to bring to her Christmas party.
I’ll have to try this! I’m not GF myself, but a lot of my friends are.
I love the Pumpkin pie recipe for our Thanksgiving!
Yum. Thanks for sharing the pie recipe .
Looks fantastic, I want to try this recipe. I love pumpkin pie.
this is exciting for me. my son is sensitive to gluten so we need all the recipes we can for thanksgiving.
Kayla I understand. My grandson is too. I remember baking so much for my boys who could eat anything! It seems more special now when I find something great for my grandson and myself!
Looks amazing! Thanks for the recipe!
I love that this is Dairy free. My son s allergic to milk, so I can definitely use this.
…I love Pumpkin Pie…Thank you for a great recipe !!!
Looks so yummy
I am excited to try this recipe. I stopped eating dairy/gluten because I am breastfeeding and my baby has allergies. I am glad to have some thanksgiving dessert I can indulge in.
Hi Sarah, Let me know how you like it
My DIL had to go vegan when she nursed our grandson due to his allergies too.
that sounds like an easy pie to make I think I will try it.
I am super excited to see a gluten and dairy free pumpkin pie recipe, and cannot wait to try it. I spent most of October baking and freezing pumpkins for the holiday season!
I was SO stressed about a dessert to make on Thanksgiving! My mother in-law eats Gluten Free and my sister is a Vegan so no dairy! This covers all the bases! Thanks so much! Lifesaver!!
Wonderful! I thought we might be without Pumpkin Pie this years due to my grandson’s GF issues. Not any more!
I’ve always loved pumpkin pie ans so does my family. We will need to try this. Thanks!
I was wondering if pumpkin pie could be made with coconut milk which is my go to. Glad to see it can!
Thank you for this recipe. I was very happy to find your gluten free and dairy free recipes since my young daughter can’t have gluten or dairy. Now she can enjoy pumpkin pie like the rest of us.
And it tastes so good she and others won’t know they are missing the dairy or gluten!
Made my mouth water! haha I want to try this
This looks delicious! Thank you for the recipe. I love eating pumpkin pie.
