HONEY PUMPKIN PIE
No Added Fat, Sugar-Free, Wheat-Free, Milk-Free

Utensils needed: One bowl, spoon, measuring cups, grinder for walnuts,
9 inch deep dish glass pie pan.

Preheat Oven 400° F
Pie Crust

  • 1 cup Quaker quick oats (or generic)
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup finely chopped walnuts
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon real maple syrup

  • Directions:  In a bowl, mix all ingredients well. Mixture will be sticky. Lightly spray a 9 inch or so, deep dish glass pie pan with Pam spray or a generic equivalent. Pour mixture into pie pan. Spray your fingers and press mixture roughly over bottom of pan. Re-spray fingers as needed. Have patience, this will take less than five minutes. Now spray top of mixture covering bottom of pan. Using fingers and firm pressure, pat down crust and you will find with practice, this will cause crust to spread evenly and push at least half way up the sides of the pan. The crust doesn't need to be perfect or to reach the top of the sides. Lightly spray crust and bake in oven at 400° for 5 minutes. Remove from oven and prepare filling. Leave oven at 400°.


    Pumpkin Filling

  • 1 - 15 ounce can real pumpkin
  • 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon corn starch
  • 3/4 cup honey
  • (mix well with spoon)
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup rice milk
  • (mix well)

  • Directions:   Follow recipe and mix when directed. Pour filling into pie crust. Bake at 400° for 10 minutes, reduce temperature to 350° for 30 minutes. Then increase temperature to 375° for 15 minutes. Turn oven off and leave in oven 10 minutes more or until inserted knife comes out clean. If your oven runs hot, watch the pie closely as the honey and maple syrup can burn easily. The crust can darken and still be fine. Cool pie 30 minutes before cutting.

    Note: Regular milk may be used in place of rice milk. You may also vary the amount of honey in the filling by one or two tablespoons, more or less, to suit your taste. You may also use your choice of spices.

    Note: For those with Celiac Sprue disease, oats contain gluten. You may omit the oats and use all nuts. Some brands of rice milk may contain 2% barley. Harmony Farms is a brand of rice milk that is gluten-free. For low salt diets, reduce or omit salt.
