KABOCHA (JAPANESE PUMPKIN) PIE WITH A COCONUT FLOUR CRUST
This tasty, even-lower-carb-than-pumpkin kabocha squash (aka Japanese pumpkin) pie has a texture very similar to pumpkin, but the taste is slightly different. Almost a little sweeter if you ask us. Some say it's a cross between pumpkin and sweet potato. This recipe is a 2-step process which requires the pie crust to be made first. For a Paleo, non-dairy version, just replace the heavy cream for full-fat coconut milk.
