With Thanksgiving coming up, I thought I would share this clean eating pumpkin pie recipe. I try to eat clean as much as possible, and this includes staying away from refined sugar. I also don’t eat dairy which is why I looked for an alternative to your typical pumpkin pie recipe. The clean eating pumpkin pie recipe calls for honey, or maple syrup, and coconut milk instead of dairy milk.
I bought a pre-made crust at Whole foods but if you prefer to make your own – here is a recipe for a whole grain pie crust.
