Ingredients
- Crust:
- 1 ½ cups of a versatile gluten-free baking flour blend
- 1 teaspoon of salt for flavor
- ½ cup of vegetable oil for richness
- 2 tablespoons of luscious French vanilla soy creamer
- Pie Filling:
- 2 cups of velvety canned pumpkin
- 1 cup of indulgent French vanilla soy creamer
- ¾ cup of rich brown sugar
- ¼ cup of cornstarch for thickening
- 1 tablespoon of dark corn syrup for depth
- 1 teaspoon of aromatic ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon of warming ground ginger
- ½ teaspoon of fragrant ground nutmeg
- ½ teaspoon of salt to enhance flavors
- ⅛ teaspoon of ground cloves for a hint of spice
Step 1
To start, preheat your oven to a toasty 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) for that perfect baking environment. Begin by gently mixing all-purpose gluten-free flour with a touch of salt for flavor balance. In a separate bowl, combine vegetable oil and soy creamer, whisking until a smooth and creamy consistency is achieved.
Step 2
Next, pour the luscious oil mixture into the waiting flour blend, using a fork to bring them together into a unified dough. Gently press this delightful crust into the welcoming embrace of a 9-inch pie pan, ensuring both bottom and sides are evenly covered. Slide the pie pan into the preheated oven and let it bake for a quick 15 minutes, then remove and set it aside to cool.
Step 3
As the oven temperature decreases to a cozy 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), it's time to craft the filling. In a blender, combine pumpkin, soy creamer, brown sugar, cornstarch, corn syrup, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, salt, and cloves. Blend this aromatic medley until it's perfectly mixed and pour this velvety concoction into the waiting prebaked pie crust.
Step 4
To shield the delicate edges of the pie crust, carefully place foil around them. Slide the pie back into the oven and bake for around 60 minutes, or until a knife inserted 1 inch from the crust emerges clean and satisfied. Allow the pie to cool gracefully on the counter for 2 hours before transferring it to the refrigerator to chill overnight, a step that enhances the flavors and textures for a delightful serving experience.
