Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie Recipe.ย This is our Best Pumpkin Pie recipe!
Pumpkin pie season is here and while I’m not one, many folks simply can’t tolerate gluten or wheat in their diets. My regular pumpkin pie recipe includes a heaping tablespoon of flour in it, so I wanted to create a gluten free pumpkin pie recipe that everyone could enjoy.
Not only is this amazing pie gluten free, it’s full of rich, creamy flavor. That’s the beauty of creating homemade desserts too. You know that you are putting real food into the recipe, not chemically laden foods.
We have several pumpkin pie recipes on the blog now so be sure to check them out!
My daughter has Celiac Disease and it is a very serious condition. Thankfully there are many, many gluten-free alternatives today. Gluten free is definitely mainstream.
This Simple Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie Recipe is not only lovely to look at – it tastes amazing. Very rich and creamy, and made with my gluten free pie crust recipe, it’s the bomb!
The original recipe came from a label off a can of Eagle Brand Condensed Milk, and I’ve tweaked it a bit just for you .
Ingredients
- one 9″ gluten-free pie crust – unbaked
- one 14 oz/398ml can pumpkin (unsweetened)
- 1 can Sweetened Condensed Milk
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- one-half tsp ginger
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg
- 1/2 salt
- Garnish: whipped cream and pecan halves
TIPS FOR PERFECT GLUTEN FREE PUMPKIN PIE
- Preheat the oven to 425F/220C
- In a large bowl combine the filling ingredients and mix well. ย I use a small handheld mixer, but be careful. ย Pumpkin pie filling will spray all over the place!
- Next, pour the filling into the gluten free pie crust shell. ย You can make your own – using gluten free floursย or buy one frozen and already prepared. ย There are some quality prepared pie crusts in grocery stores now!
- Follow all of the ingredients carefully.
- Bake 15 minutes at 425F/220C and then reduce your oven temperature to 350F/180C and bake 25-30 minutes.
- THIS IS THE IMPORTANT PART! For the final 10-15 minutes, turn the oven off and leave your pie inside.ย This will prevent the gluten free pumpkin pie from overcooking or having the filling will ‘crack’ around the edges.
- Finally, cool and garnish with whipped cream and pecan halves.
- Make sure you place any leftovers in the refrigerator. ย I find pumpkin pie will keep about a week if kept cold.
