Fill the pie pan with the dough and shape into a crust by pressing with your hands inside out.
For the Filling:
  1. Mix coconut milk and sugar, starch , chickpea flour in a pan at medium heat. Keep whisking so the sugar and starch dissolves well. Once the sugar has dissolved, add in the pumpkin puree, spices, oil and mix well. Keep stirring with a spatula and bring to somewhat boil. The mixture will keep thickening and some large bubbles will try to escape. 5 to 6 minutes total.
  2. Continue to stir and cook for another minute or 2. the mixture will visibly thicken and start to leave the pan at some places. You should be able to feel the stiffness in the mixture. Taste carefully and add sugar if needed. Mix in the vanilla and take off heat.
  3. Let it cool for a minute then pour into the prepared crust. Even it out using a spatula. Let cool for 10 minutes, then refrigerate for a few hours to overnight.
