Instructions
Coconut Pie Crust
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease 8-9 inch pie plate and set aside.

- In a small bowl beat the eggs, coconut oil and vanilla together. Fold into dry ingredients and let sit for a couple of minutes. Mix until dough forms and all ingredients hold together.

- Remove top sheet of parchment paper and gently flip the crust into the prepared pie plate.
- Press into plate and gently pierce the pie crust with a fork.
- Bake for approximately 5 minutes to set the crust.
Pumpkin Pie Filling
- In a large mixing bowl beat cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth.
- Add the pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice and vanilla. Mix well.
- Beat in eggs one at a time until all the ingredients are incorporated.
- Pour into prepared pie plate and bake for approximately 40 minutes or until the center is not jiggly.
- Cool before serving.
- Top with whipped cream or pecan halves.
Notes
- Use full-fat cream cheese for a rich and smooth texture in the pumpkin filling.
- If using canned pumpkin puree, use the entire 15-ounce can to maintain filling consistency.
- Pre-baking the coconut flour crust helps it set and avoid sogginess when adding the filling.
